Dance is not just an art form for me; it is a way of life. I have been teaching Bharatanatyam for the past six years, sharing my knowledge and passion with students who wish to master this beautiful classical dance form. My goal is to nurture and guide dancers, helping them embrace the rich tradition and discipline that Bharatanatyam embodies.

I hold a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Dance (Bharatanatyam), which has given me an in-depth understanding of the technical, theoretical, and expressive aspects of this classical dance form. My training has helped me develop a structured and immersive teaching approach that benefits both beginners and advanced students.

I am honored to have my contributions recognized at a larger scale, as I hold records in both the Tamil Nadu Book of Records and the Asia World Book of Records. These recognitions reflect my dedication to Bharatanatyam and my continuous efforts to push the boundaries of performance and teaching.

I offer both online and offline classes, making it convenient for students from different locations to learn. Whether in-person or virtual, my sessions are designed to be engaging, structured, and interactive, ensuring that students grasp the nuances of Bharatanatyam effectively.

For students aspiring to achieve excellence, I provide competition and examination preparation. I train my students rigorously for various dance competitions and certification programs, ensuring they perform with confidence, grace, and technical perfection.

My classes emphasize discipline, technique, expression (Bhava), and storytelling through dance. I believe that Bharatanatyam is not just about movements but about conveying emotions, mythology, and cultural heritage. My teaching approach ensures that students develop both technical proficiency and a deep appreciation for this ancient art form.

Ultimately, my aim is to preserve and promote Bharatanatyam, guiding students on their journey to becoming skilled and expressive dancers. Whether a beginner taking the first steps or an advanced dancer seeking refinement, I strive to make learning Bharatanatyam a fulfilling and transformative experience.
