My Story

Dance for me is family, faith, and stories. Amma’s tales of Ramayana, her bhakti - shaped me. Dhaatu Puppet Theater, puppets everywhere, it’s always been home. My guru, Praveen Kumar, showed me what the stage really means. That first time in Madras, 2011, just watching. Fourteen years later, I’m there, performing. Kālāya tasmai namaha. I study Natyashastra, chase karanas, find art in rain, in people, in life. For me, dance is everywhere. Blessed.

My Work

Bharatanatyam Performances, Classes, Choreography, Dance Puppetry - I do solo thematic shows, teach all ages at Kalāmārga, create dance-puppetry fusion, and choreograph.

Storytelling Through Dance - I love bringing stories like 'Shringara Sharanagati' to life, making emotions the heart of my Bharatanatyam.

My Dance Style - Light feet, azhutham (groundedness), and lots of karanas. My research in Natyashastra shapes my teaching.

Kalāmārga & Rasa Rahasya - Beginner and intermediate Bharatanatyam classes, plus the Rasa Rahasya course for those wanting to dive deep.

Dance Puppetry Fusion Shows - I mix Bharatanatyam and Bombeyaata puppetry, like in 'Rukmini Parinaya'—especially fun for kids.
