Creating a brand is a challenging experience and not all will succeed. During the process, one has to have the stamina and determination to endure the hardships and results may not always be satisfactory. Ultimately, it is a combination of timing, luck and most importantly the products we offer. 

I first met Tania when my friends recruited me to a bridge lesson at her home. I was told that it's a game to stimulate memory but difficult to master. I have taken lessons elsewhere and did not have good results and was just about to give up when Tania appeared. She was able to explain the game in simple terms and made it fun for me and my friends. Although I am still at the infancy stage of the game, I am confident that Tania's mentoring will help me gain positive results in due course. 

I subsequently found out that Tania is multi-talented as she is a lawyer by training and also the founder and owner of Tabla - one of my favourite shops for shawls and clothing from India. Her business has expanded to housewares and exclusives in several department stores.

We are honored to have her on our platform and you are welcome to sign up for bridge lessons or purchase specific products from Tabla at Sky Global discounts.
