From the technical precision of Kathak spins to the profound storytelling of Bharathanatyam, we invite you to discover the artistry that defines our dance family.

Experience the energy and precision of Kathak through the 'Chakkars' or spins, a hallmark of this dynamic dance form. This is a glimpse into the technical mastery we cultivate in our students, focusing on grace, speed, and control.

In our special workshops, we delve deep into ancient traditions like the Natyashastra. Here, I am sharing the nuances of 'Karanas', a magnificent set of movements, demonstrating our commitment to preserving and passing on profound knowledge in the Guru-Shishya tradition.

We believe in nurturing talent at every age. It is a joy to see our young students, like the gifted Pradyota Rama, blossom into confident performers and showcase their artistry on prestigious stages.

Art unites hearts and creates a vibrant community. This is our Abhinava dance family, a growing tribe of passionate dancers who learn, grow, and celebrate the joy of Natya together.

Begin your own journey with dance. We offer classes for children and adults at our Bangalore studios, providing a heartfelt way to connect with your body, culture, and spirit.

We are dedicated to innovation while honoring tradition. This choreography showcases 'Deshi Marga Adavus', a unique movement vocabulary I developed that integrates classical Bharathanatyam with elements from the Natyashastra.

The blessings of our Gurus are our greatest strength. I am humbled to receive guidance from legends like Padma Vibhushan Dr. Padmasubrahmanyam, whose presence reinforces the sacred lineage we uphold.

Dance is storytelling through emotion, or 'Abhinaya'. In every performance and class, we focus on evoking 'Rasa' or aesthetic delight, ensuring that you don't just learn the steps, but truly feel the dance.

About Featured

At Abhinava, we believe dance is far more than physical movement; it is a search for Rasa, or aesthetic delight. Whether you are refining your Kathak chakkars or exploring the intricate adavus of Bharathanatyam, our training focuses on the emotional and spiritual connection to the art form, guided by the traditional Guru-Shishya parampara.
