We invite you to experience the ancient art of Batik in a local studio surrounded by peaceful Ubud vibes. Whether you're experienced in art or not, the session is designed to be accessible, therapeutic, and fun.

In the hand-drawn batik class, you’ll learn to use the traditional “canting,” a pen-like tool to apply hot wax to the fabric. You're welcome to create your own design or choose from a range of pre-made stencils. Before working on your final piece, you’ll have extra cloth to practice the wax technique.

Once your design is waxed, it’s time for the coloring process. Choose from 17 beautiful dye colors to bring your creation to life. When the colors are set, your fabric will be boiled to remove the wax, revealing your vibrant and personal Batik masterpiece. The experience is relaxed and pressure-free, and you'll walk away with a finished creation that’s 100% yours to take home.

For a deeper experience, you can also try the full 5-hour session which combines the hand-drawn technique with the batik cap (stamp technique). Batik cap uses beautiful copper stamps to apply wax in intricate patterns. It’s another traditional method and a perfect blend of art and culture.

If you’d rather focus on painting, we also offer a Batik coloring session using pre-waxed fabrics. This means the design is already prepared, and you’ll jump straight into the enjoyable coloring part — a great option for a more meditative and casual creative session.

Each type of experience is available in different sizes and durations:

Hand-drawn Batik:
- 3 hours (50x50 cm)
- 5 hours (100x50 cm with batik cap included)
Coloring Session (Pre-Waxed Fabric):
- 2 hours (50x50 cm)
- 4 hours (100x50 cm)
Stamp Session (Batik Cap):
- 3 hours (50x50 cm)
- 5 hours (100x50 cm)

We love this activity not only for how creative and calming it is, but also for the meaningful connection it offers to Indonesian heritage. It's a truly satisfying experience for individuals, couples, or families with kids.

You can book this activity with or without transport, and we’ll be happy to arrange the perfect time for your Batik session. For details and reservations, feel free to contact us on WhatsApp at +62 8 123 666 567.

To make sure your booking is successful, please check with us through WhatsApp +62 8 123 666 567 after you book. Your booking is only confirmed when you receive a confirmation email with a receipt.

If the website shows: “Thank you for your order. Your order has been received” but you do not get a confirmation email, this means your booking was not successful.

This usually happens because your card issuer declined the payment (mostly French cards, but also, rarely, happens to cards issued in other countries), even if the website looks like it accepted your order.

You can always check your card statement.
