About

For me, Bharatanatyam is more than just steps - it’s like a prayer, a way to find beauty and stories in everyday life. I always say, like that Kannada song 'Naa Naguva Modalene', there’s always a melody or a story hiding somewhere, waiting to be danced.

My Roots & What I Offer

Everything I share comes from my gurus, Karnataka Kalashree Guru Smt. K. Brunda and Vidushi Smt. Ananya M. I carry their wisdom forward, and being a graded artist with Doordarshan is a big deal for me - it keeps me grounded in tradition.

At Brundavan, we go deep into Bharatanatyam for beginners and experienced dancers alike. For kids and newbies, we start slow - basic postures, rhythms, and a peek into Indian mythology through dance. For those wanting more, I love working on advanced items like Varnams and Thillanas, and I help choreograph for competitions and stage shows.

More Than Just Technique

We put a big focus on abhinaya classes - learning how to show feelings and stories through expression. Think Radha-Krishna’s playful fights, Shiva’s cosmic dance, or Devi’s calm - we bring all that to life.

Performance & Community

You’ll get chances to perform, from Navaratri festivals to Mysore Dasara, and even quirky concept videos. Mostly, we’re like a little dance family - we push each other, grow together, and have a lot of fun along the way.
