The point of it

A class you have to travel to is a class you can miss for reasons that have nothing to do with wanting to go. Teaching at home removes that, and it removes the other quiet obstacle too: the self-consciousness of learning something new in a room full of people who already know it.

The school’s own framing is preventative. Practising regularly is a way of staying ahead of the chronic conditions that arrive with a sedentary decade, and there is no better place to build a habit than the room you are already in.

How it works

The course runs four months at basic level, so it assumes no experience. Groups are listed at up to twenty-five, which in practice covers families, neighbours and small circles of friends who arrange a session together in one home.

You need less space than you think. A clear rectangle a little longer than you are tall, and enough height to raise your arms overhead. The teacher will tell you at the first session how to arrange the room.

Where the school travels

In-person home sessions are arranged in and around Kovalam and Thiruvananthapuram. If you are further away, the same course is taught live online, which is how the school already teaches students in several other countries.

Message with your address or your timezone and you will be told which of the two applies to you.
