About Dance & Fitness Classes
Why We Dance
At Etram Dance Academy, dance is more than steps - it’s how we connect, express, and grow. We started out 9 years ago, bruised knees and all, and today we’re a mix of dancers who just love moving together. We know not everyone’s here to be a pro, so we keep things honest - you’ll sweat, laugh, sometimes mess up, but you’ll always feel welcome.
What We Teach
We offer a massive mix of classes:
- Indian classical dance classes like Bharatanatyam and Kathak, for both kids and adults. You’ll start with basics and can go all the way up to Arangetram.
- Bollywood dance workouts and Folk styles (think Bhangra, Garba) that are pure fun and energy.
- Contemporary dance for beginners and more experienced folks - modules usually end with a cool performance piece.
- Hip hop dance sessions for anyone 7+, plus semi-classical if you want to blend old and new.
- Aerial silk fitness for something totally different, and even Belly Dance and Kalari for those who want to build strength in creative ways.
Try Before You Choose
Feeling lost with options? We get it, so we offer free demo classes on most batches. You can meet the teacher, try a session, and see what clicks.
Perform, Don’t Just Learn
We’re big on stage shows. Every year, our Birang showcase lets students shine, plus regular Performance Nights and KALA events if you want to choreograph your own thing. It’s about sharing what you learn and owning the stage together.

My Story
Nine years, and still feels like yesterday! Etram started as a wild dream, some bruised knees, and a lot of heart. We wanted a place where a 4-year-old and a pro could both feel the dance magic. Our 'Ramayan' show - full house, standing ovation, Jai Shree Ram! Even lockdown couldn’t stop us, we danced through the screens. Our annual 'Birang' showcase, that’s our real pride. Etram is family, not just a studio.
