Student Support

Hema Jaikaran

As a child I was always fascinated by balloons, more so because of the myriad of colours and shapes and sizes they came in. I remember how enthralled I was when I saw balloons being used to make animals and being ‘blown’ away when I attended a function that used balloons to make shapes that I did not know was possible. That sparked a fire in me and I started learning balloon art. Since then, I have done numerous projects including weddings and parties and corporate events. It is a humbling experience to see the joy and happiness that my balloon art has brought to people’s lives. Balloon art has evolved into a profession and it is my way of changing lives. Now, I spend a lot of my time sharing my passion. I have been teaching balloon art and balloon decoration for several years. My classes are very practical and very engaging; I give it my all because I see myself as training the next great balloon decorator and entrepreneur – and that person is you!
