I attended Theatre games with Kaustubh and the Train the Trainer -Drama Facilitation..Both programmes were empowering and made my belief even stronger in using applied theatre as an effective methodology to cover any concept... I thank Kaustubh for being so patient with all the questions asked and introducing us to this powerful methodology ...

This is my 3rd experience with Kaustabh and this time in the capacity of a Facilitator getting trained by him. His Willingness to give, patience to respond and clarity to handhold Me through the journey has been immensely satisfying and makes full of gratitude and Honour and to embrace the same virtues even more than what I walked into his 2 day TTT program with.

If you are open to look inward, explore own strengths as well as inhibitions, Kaustubh is the facilitator for you. I attended a program designed largely for facilitators, trainers and educators. The group came from diverse background; what was common for us was a deep learning, high sense of inclusivity and further clarity as a facilitator ourselves. I personally learnt a lot for Kaustubh's approach of "not rushing to outcome, but focus on learners' reflection and flow".
