About

At Samarpana, Mohiniyattam is more than just steps - it's a feeling we share, a kind of 'samarpanam' (offering) every time we dance together. Our classes in Bangalore are like a big joint family, where everyone’s energy mixes and we lose ourselves in the dance. Sometimes we say, "Aise naacho ki naach hi bache, urja reh jaaye" (Dance so only the dance and energy remain) - that's the vibe we chase.

Who Can Join?

Kids, grown-ups, total beginners or pros - everybody’s welcome. The only thing you need is some love for Mohiniyattam. We keep it open and warm, no judgement about age or skill.

How We Teach

  • Start with basics: Mohiniyattam adavu techniques and footwork
  • As you grow, we go deep into music, movement, and the little details that make this dance so unique
  • For anyone super committed, we prep you for Arangetram (your solo debut) - full support, from training to event

What Makes Us Different

Our 'kalari' (studio) isn’t just about practice. There’s music, jokes, sometimes we even shoot dance reels for fun. Plus, our Anubhavam Series brings in top artists for special Mohiniyattam workshops in Bangalore.

Our Roots

We follow the style of our Guru, Padmashree Bharati Shivaji. Everything we teach is with respect for tradition, but there’s always space for joy and new memories.

My Story

We’re Samarpana, not just a dance school, more like a big, slightly crazy family. Started off in Bangalore back in 2018, all of us—kids, seniors, everyone—just mad about dance and music. Our guru Vinaya chechi leads us, but really, it’s all of us together, laughing, learning, sometimes goofing up, but always giving our hearts to every step. Our first show, ‘Ashtalakshmi’, felt like magic. That’s what we chase—connection, joy, and that special spark.

My Work

Mohiniyattam & Carnatic Music Classes - We teach Mohiniyattam (Bharati Shivaji style) and Carnatic music—kids, adults, all are welcome in our Bangalore space.

Workshops & Anubhavam Series - We run the Anubhavam Series with guest artists, plus special dance workshops for anyone wanting to try something new.

Professional Dance Productions - We create and perform original productions—sometimes traditional, sometimes wild and new, always heartfelt.

Community & Collaboration - Join us, you’re family. We travel, rehearse, perform, and just hang out together. It’s all about the collective vibe.
