Our Vibe: A Community for Creative Expression in Mumbai
Myna is more than an academy. It is a soul space where music, dance, and theatre come together in a judgment-free environment for learners of all ages.
Our official apology. We're sorry (not sorry) for making performing arts way too enjoyable. At Myna, expression isn't a trend; it's a way of life.
Welcome to Myna Academy. Co-founder Aarti Havaldar takes you on a tour of our beautiful space, where every classroom is named after a raga and designed to inspire happiness through expression.
Talent is nurtured, not born. This video captures the essence of our philosophy, showcasing how we cultivate storytellers, movers, and dreamers of all ages in our interdisciplinary workshops.
It's never too early or too late to start. From early childhood movement to adult beginners in theatre, we've learned that creativity finds you exactly when you're ready.
A look back at our magical first year. From soulful music to powerful theatre, our community has embraced creativity in every rhythm and movement. Thank you for making it unforgettable.
A recap of a month at Myna. It's not just a series of classes but a coming together of voices, movements, and stories that reminds us why we do what we do.
On Teachers' Day, we celebrate the anchors of Myna. Our renowned musicians, gifted dancers, and inspiring theatre artists are the heart of our academy, guiding with passion and nurturing talent with care.
Myth: Only extroverts are good at drama. Fact: Many brilliant actors are introverts. It's about expression, not personality. At Myna, we break myths, not spirits.
Did you know India's theatre tradition is over 2,000 years old? We love sharing interesting facts about the rich history of Indian performing arts.
The Natyashastra, the world's first performing arts manual, makes India's theatre tradition older than Shakespeare.
About Our Vibe: The Myna Community
You will notice the difference the moment you walk into our Khar West studio. We have designed our classrooms to be intimate, soundproof, and welcoming, with specialized flooring for movement and performance. It is a space designed to help you drop the performance anxiety and just focus on your expression, whether you are picking up an instrument for the first time or returning to an old passion.
At Myna, we believe that creativity thrives when you feel at home. Our studio is not just a place for lessons, but a community hub where art feels accessible. We have named our classrooms after ragas like Bhairavi and Malhar, setting a tone that is rooted in tradition yet open to modern exploration.
We focus on the practical side of learning. For our Myna Minis, the drama lab provides a safe area for play and confidence building. For adults, our community theatre projects and riyaaz sessions offer a way to integrate art into your rozmarra ki zindagi, or everyday life. You will find that we emphasize the process over the product. Our gurus are here to guide you at your own pace, ensuring that you do not just learn a skill, but find joy in the act of doing it. Whether you are curious about Urdu adab, want to explore Hindustani vocals, or are looking for a weekend theatre workshop, this is your place to try, fail, and grow without any pressure.
