### My story

We started Myna in 2025 with just a dream and a bunch of wild ideas. This place, it’s not just four walls - it’s where folks come to laugh, sing, dance, act, and sometimes just sit and soak it in. Kids get creative in our Drama Lab, adults find old passions and new friends. Our gurus? Legends, storytellers, sometimes strict, mostly fun. We celebrate everything - Lohri dhol, Kabir poetry, Shaam-e-Ghazal - all for connection. Myna’s home, honestly.

### My work

- **Performing Arts Classes & Workshops**: Music, dance, theatre, and cultural exploration for all ages - from Hindustani vocals to Bollywood Fusion dance.
- **Drama Lab for Kids & Adults**: Drama Lab lets kids and grown-ups play, act, and build confidence with stories and theatre games.
- **Personal Attention from Gurus**: Our artists teach in small groups, guiding you at your pace, making learning fun and real.
- **Collective Riyaaz & Fun Learning**: We turn riyaaz into a joy with group singing, games, and easy exercises. Hindustani music feels light here.
- **Cultural Events & Shaam-e-Ghazal**: We host performances, solo acts, and festivals like Shaam-e-Ghazal to inspire and connect everyone.
