Hear From Our Students
Hear from the students who walked in unsure and walked out draping like pros. These are real stories from our masterclasses in Mumbai, Pune, and beyond.
My management team is often made up of my former students. Here they are, sharing their reviews of the class and how they manage the sessions, creating a supportive and family-like atmosphere for everyone.
In their own words. This is Part 1 of my student reviews, where they share why they joined the class, the problems they faced before, and how the 3-day masterclass helped them overcome their challenges and learn new skills.

About Hear From Our Students
What you see here isn't just praise; it is the result of three days of intense, hands-on practice. My students come here with common struggles—trouble with Nauvari pleats, uneven pallus, or fear of heavy fabrics—and by the final day, they are executing flawless bridal drapes. You aren't just reading reviews; you are seeing the transformation from 'I can't do this' to 'I just mastered 15 styles'.
Whether you are a makeup artist looking to add a crucial skill to your portfolio or a saree enthusiast wanting to perfect the art for personal use, the Draping Tejas Masterclass is designed to bridge the gap between confusion and mastery. Students often arrive with specific pain points—struggling with the intricate box pleating of a Kanjivaram or the technical complexity of a nine-yard Nauvari.
In these videos, you will see exactly what happens inside our sessions. It is not about watching a demo; it is about getting your hands on the fabric. We focus on the 'why' behind every pleat. Why does the pallu slide? How do you use the iron to ensure the drape stays crisp for hours? We tackle these questions because I want you to leave feeling confident, not just informed.
We keep our classes supportive and high-energy. Many of my past students have gone on to build their own successful careers in the industry, and it is a proud moment to see them now assisting in my sessions. If you have been hesitant about joining because you have never held an iron or are afraid of ruining a costly silk saree, know that this is exactly the safe, supervised space where you can make those mistakes and correct them before you ever touch a client's drape. You get the tools, the technique, and the certificate to prove you earned it.
Draping Tejas
I am Tejas. I started this academy because I believe saree draping is an emotion, not just a job. Seeing my students gain confidence and start their own successful draping careers is the best part of my day—let's make you the next success story.
