You are actually draping, pinning, and pleating on professional mannequins until your hands remember the movement. I focus heavily on the technique behind the drape, so you can master everything from a quick 5-minute everyday style to complex 9-yard Madisar drapes without the stress. ### My Hands-On Approach Learning to drape is a tactile experience. That is why my studio in Dombivli is set up with professional mannequins, full-length mirrors, and steam irons—tools you need to practice until you are ready to drape for yourself or clients. We start with the basics, like fabric handling for silks versus cottons, and move into the 'pinning hacks' I have developed over two decades to ensure your saree stays secure throughout a long wedding day or an office event. ### What You Will Learn - **The Signature Draping Method:** I teach a technique for sharp, equidistant front pleats that do not sag. - **9-Yard Madisar Styles:** For those looking to master traditional South Indian looks for weddings. - **Quick Draping:** Learn the 5-minute express drape using pre-pleating and box folding techniques—a game changer for busy mornings. - **Body Analysis:** How to adjust pleat size and pallu length to flatter different heights and body types. ### Certification and Support At the end of your training, you receive a certificate from my academy. But more importantly, you leave with the muscle memory and the troubleshooting skills to fix any drape. I keep my batch sizes small, so I can give you one-on-one corrections on your hand movements. This is not just a theory class; it is where you build the confidence to wear or style sarees for any occasion, from a family puja to a grand reception. ## About Sujata Nair I'm Sujata.
