## About Mehendi Art Courses

### Why I Teach Mehendi

Mehendi is more than patterns to me - it’s personal. Every line I draw is backed by years of practice with brides in Mumbai. Now, I want you to try your own hand at this art, whether you’re just curious or aiming to go pro.

### Who Can Join

- Never held a mehendi cone? You’ll fit right in.
- Want to improve beyond basic flowers and paisleys? I’ll show you how.
- Thinking about taking up mehendi as a profession? You’ll pick up real skills for client work.

### What You’ll Learn

I like to start slow, with the basics. My beginner mehendi design classes focus on:

- Mixing smooth henna paste from scratch
- Getting your grip and control right with the cone
- Drawing clean lines, dots, swirls
- Simple floral, paisley, and mandala motifs

Once you’re comfortable, we move to advanced bridal mehendi techniques:

- Drawing figures and couple portraits (yes, I’ll show you my tricks)
- Weaving stories and rituals into your designs
- Full-coverage, symmetrical bridal work
- Shading, jaal (net patterns), and negative space art

### My Style & Dedication

People often ask, “Mehendi lagake backpain nhi hota aapka?” (Don’t you get backpain from applying mehendi?). Honestly, I don’t think about it much - I’m too caught up in making each design perfect and seeing that smile on someone’s face. That’s the kind of focus and patience you’ll see in my classes.

[Shravani Chavan](https://mytribe.in/mehendiartist_shravani)

### My story

Hey, I'm Shravani from Mumbai. Mehendi for me? Not just patterns, it's memories that stick around. Once a bride called it 'a forever kind of memory' - I felt that. Yes, my back does hurt sometimes, people always ask - 'backpain nahi hota?' (doesn't your back hurt?) - but when the bride smiles at her stain, sab thik ho jata hai (everything feels fine). I travel for weddings, meet new faces, teach too. That happy look when you see your mehendi... makes my day.

### My work

- **Mehendi for Weddings & Festivals**: I do bridal mehendi, baby showers, Teej, Mangla Gauri, and other festive events.
- **Custom Story-telling Mehendi**: Love adding portraits, names, dates, pets - anything that makes your mehendi personal.
- **Intricate Bridal Designs**: Detailed work with classic motifs - peacocks, elephants, lotuses, dulha-dulhan, all with neat finishing.
- **Destination Wedding Mehendi**: Based in Mumbai but I travel anywhere, even Dubai, if you want me for your big day.
- **Mehendi Courses**: Offline classes for anyone keen to learn the art, no fancy stuff, just real teaching.
