Rangoli art is highly practiced in rural India daily, especially by women and girls, who draw rangoli in front of their houses everyday morning and evening. It comes very naturally to them, as this art is passed on from one generation to the other through embodied knowing. Apart from its aesthetic value and spiritual significance, it has a lot of physical and mental health benefits. Bending along your spine or on your knees and channelizing your creativity to draw a design with auspicious figures and motifs, is a healthy exercise for your mind and body. It develops your hand and eye coordination and mathematical skills, of numbers, counting, symmetry, shapes, and angles, while working in the specialized grid of calculated dots, through a defined set of, repeated curved and straight lines. Women and girls of ancient India practiced this art daily, without any formal education in math or geometry.
We encourage you to try our free downloads of basic "Soulart Rangoli Activity Worksheets" ranging from 4x4 to 10x10 dots and discover your flair for Rangoli. An increase in the straightness of your lines and completion speed signifies greater focus, concentration, and math skills.

Lovers of this art, from India as well as overseas, unable to practice it due to limitations of space, time, art skills, or any ailments, would cherish such a traditional possession.
