Batik Master Class with Full Process

The boutique making workshop was outstanding. It walked me through each stage of the process with high-quality instruction, support, and detail. You can draw your own design or work from one that has been prepared for your selection. The instructor and assistant (who speaks English very well) or warm, encouraging, and detail oriented. They will provide the level of supervision and support that you need during the whole process. In addition to (beginning to) learn this culturally, important, technical craft within a UNESCO -recognized community for Batik, you will have the opportunity to look at many different, locally handmade batiks, available for purchase. The quality of the instruction was absolutely excellent, and everyone was warm and enthusiastic. I could not have been more pleased with this process, and it was a perfect counterpoint to a physically intense day at the temples. In addition, I was provided with super tasty homemade snacks and coffee along with other drinks. Make sure you have a reliable driver because the workshop is located in a neighborhood that’s known for Batik making. It is close to Pramanam Temple so you may want to combine these activities. It is roughly an hour from the airport, but traffic dependent. I’m absolutely thrilled with the quality of the workshop! If you are at all crafty, do it!

This was an amazing experience! There was the option of using a tote bag, and do our own design on them... Which was amazing! The owner and Salwa were super kind and helpful! I had a really great time in here! I definitely recommend it!!!

Appreciate the one on one instruction! Our teacher was very patient and encouraged us even when we did not do a perfect job. Our first time and the hands lacked precision and control. But as he said, even when you are making a mistake, you are still making “art”.
