My Style
I work best with collaboration and lots of laughter. With my crew, Team Thandavika, we turn big dreams into moments you remember. Namma energy (our energy) is contagious, but I’ll be honest - sometimes rehearsals get intense, and not every step comes easy. But that's the fun part, right?
Let’s make something awesome and enjoy the ride!

My Story
Hi ellarigu! Muruga Master here - dance, bike rides, and temples, that’s me. If I’m not teaching steps, I’m riding to Ooty or chilling at Mantralayam, soaking in good vibes. Worked with Kannada and Tamil stars, but honestly, the real fun is in the studio or on the road. I just go with the flow, smile, and enjoy every moment. Life’s simple, dance and ride!
My Work
Choreography for TV, Movies & Events - I choreograph for TV reality shows, Kannada movie songs, sangeet, and corporate events. Love the challenge each brings.
Thandavika Dance Studio - My studio’s open for all - kids batch is super fun! We teach dance and fitness with lots of energy.
My Style & Approach - I set trends, not follow. My choreography is full of energy and happiness, whether for stars or kids.
