This is the first glimpse into my world of dance. It’s a selection of moments that capture the energy of a live performance, the quiet focus of practice, and the joy of sharing this art form with others. Each visual represents a core part of my artistic and teaching philosophy.
Workshops & Training
This is where the journey begins for many of my students. My workshops are designed to be immersive experiences, whether online or in person, covering everything from foundational techniques to advanced choreography. You will see glimpses of sessions held from Bangalore to London, focusing on both individual growth and group dynamics.
Abhinaya: The Art of Storytelling
Abhinaya is the heart of Bharatanatyam, where movement becomes a language to tell stories. This collection showcases my work with multilingual poetry, from Marathi Abhangs to Tamil Thirumozhi and Jayadeva's Gita Govindam. The focus here is on expression, emotion, and the intricate process of translating poetic text into a compelling visual narrative.
Nritta: The Rhythm of Dance
This section is dedicated to Nritta, or pure dance, which is the foundation of Bharatanatyam. It showcases the architectural beauty of the form through crisp movements, complex rhythmic patterns (jathis), and dynamic postures (karanas). Here you will see the focus on body conditioning, precision, and the sheer joy of movement that I emphasize in my technical training.
The Creative Process: From Studio to Stage
Every performance is the result of countless hours of research, rehearsal, and refinement. This cluster offers a behind the scenes look at my creative process, from solitary practice and choreographic exploration to collaborative sessions with musicians. It shows the 'riyaz' not as a chore, but as a living, breathing part of my artistic life.
Lineage, Community & Collaborations
Dance is never a solitary pursuit. It is built on the wisdom of teachers, the synergy with musicians, and the support of a vibrant artistic community. This collection is a tribute to my gurus, my talented musical collaborators, my dedicated students, and my respected peers who inspire and enrich my journey.
Additional Work & Recognition
This is a collection of other meaningful moments from my journey. It includes receiving awards, which serve as encouragement to continue my work, and images from travels to artistically inspiring places that fuel my creative spirit.
