About us

Swaagat hai!  This group is for increasing and practicing our Hindi language skills.  It isn't a social group per se... so don't expect lots of fancy events!  We concentrate on learning and practicing the language. But of course, we are social in the process.  We have fun doing it and meet good people. :-)
We are friendly and informal, and we speak some English too.

Right now we are offering online meetings with Ashutosh on Sunday mornings and that includes all levels.

I would love to offer some monthly in person meetings again on the Westside or Culver City but need a fluent Hindi person (teacher or not) to be present so that it's not just me.
If you know anyone who would like to do this, or that person is you... please let me know.

Ashutosh: I am a teacher by hobby and a software engineer by profession.
I started out with teaching Hindi for the Global Language Network (GLN) at George Washington University, and then created Hindi University.

Past Leaders:
Puneet Puneet is in India and teaches Hindi - all levels. He also gives private yoga/meditation/breathing exercises classes.
Zubin Mehta  Zubin, a realtor in Santa Monica and fluent... used to help us with some meetings.  He is always so helpful and a great person!
For your real estate needs contact Zubin at this website  HERE  "I'll treat your needs as mine". 
Anshu Jain is an experienced Hindi teacher. She teaches summer classes at UCLA. She's a wonderful teacher and person! For those of us that want lessons she has online lessons but also occasionally offers live group classes in Cerritos. Once in a rare while, she will make it up to LA and we'll have a meeting with her. We will occasionally have a meeting down in Artesia when she can make it.   http://www.ilearnhindi.org
Rajashri taught us informally in her home in the SGV for awhile. Her meetings were a wonderful language and cultural experience. Thank you for having us in your home for so long. Her daughter Reshama works with Henna and Dancing, see below!
Mitta Vicki Wise  I am an intermediate Hindi speaker, so I'm glad that my past and present leaders are able to help.  I go to India every year and sometimes Nepal and am involved in India with an ashram. That's why I am so committed to learning Hindi.
I also offer private and professional guided meditation journeys, reflexology, empowerment coaching sessions and online women's programs. See HERE or https://www.facebook.com/EmpowerHeartWomen
