Kalāmārga: My School of Dance

At Kalāmārga, The Path of Art, I offer Bharatanatyam training for all ages and skill levels. I keep my batches small to provide personal attention, focusing on strong foundations for beginners and offering real stage experience for all students through events like Nrityarpanam.

Stage Performances & Choreography

This is a collection of moments from my solo thematic productions and other performances across India. My choreography blends the traditional grammar of Bharatanatyam with my own interpretations of stories from texts like the Ramayana and Srimad Bhagavatam.

Advanced Studies: Karanas & Rasa

For dancers looking to deepen their knowledge, I offer specialized workshops based on my PhD research in the Natyashastra. These courses cover the theory and practice of the 108 karanas, dance aesthetics (rasa and bhava), and the principles of choreography.

Kalāmārga Nrityotsava: A Festival of Dance

As a curator, I organize the Kalāmārga Nrityotsava, a solo thematic classical dance festival held annually in Bengaluru. This event is my effort to create a platform for artists to present unique productions and to enrich the city's cultural landscape.

Press & Accolades

I am filled with gratitude for the recognition my work has received from esteemed critics and publications. These reviews and features are a testament to the guidance of my gurus and the support of my family and collaborators.

Behind the Scenes: My Practice & Philosophy

Dance is not just what happens on stage; it is a constant, joyful process of exploration and practice. This is an unfiltered look into my daily sadhana, my moments of inspiration, and the philosophy that art can be found in every moment of life.
