Frequently asked questions
What's the minimum age for admission?
Age 5 and above - While there's no age for learning an art form, a child needs to have understanding of liking for an activity/practice.
Face to face as well as online sessions range between 4-8 sessions per month of 90 minutes/session.
Definitely you could. SSoB presently has aspirants as young as 5 till 52 (but thats not the limit). A pat on your back for visiting this website and going through till this section. Lets discuss.
Oh yes, you definitely can. Infact we have few daughter-mother duos already enrolled. Young minds imitate actions they see around, and whats better for their interest than seeing their parent participating in the same activities like themself.
