Photographs from the school

The teaching, the sound sessions, graduation day, and ordinary life in Agonda. All of these are real students and real classes — nothing here is stock.

The work itself

Chavutti given from the rope, oil work, the marma chart, and Nadiprana on the sand.

Life around the course

Holi, dinner, the food, and the beach the school sits on.

  • A cohort having dinner together under lights in Agonda

Nobody is posing in most of these

The ceremony photographs were shot properly, by a photographer, and they look it. The rest were taken by whoever had a phone — at dinner, at Holi, on the sand — and they are the ones that show what the month is actually like.

Both kinds are here on purpose. A school that only shows you the professional set is showing you a brochure.
