About iikonz

Priya went on to train as a career analyst, life coach, trainer and a counselor. She started a forum called Kadhaikalam Vaanga—a storyteller’s platform through which Priya trained, coached and counseled over 100 people, kids and adults alike. iikonz is an offspring of Kadhaikalam Vaanga, designed to impart training through extensive use of storytelling and theatre-based activities.

Priya coach is amazing. I did story telling session with her and it was wonderful. So many technique she taught, her workshop leading skill is amazing. She also gives lot of worksheets, resources once the course ends. She gives feedback for every session and monitors too. After the session too she takes care if we need any support. I am so happy to be part of her story telling sessions.. Looking forward for more and more sessions.
