### My story

We started Sreejaya's School of Classical Dance because dance is home for us. My film days with legends like Lalettan and Mammootty were lovely, but building this school with Madan was a dream. Here, students—my own daughter included—don’t just learn steps, they live Bharatanatyam. Our classrooms grew with every dancer who walked in. Anyone who wants to dance, just walk in. This is your family too.

### My work

- **Classes in Bharatanatyam and Carnatic music**: We teach Bharatanatyam (Kalakshetra style) and Carnatic music for all ages, online and offline in Bangalore.
- **Traditional yet personal approach**: Our focus is on bhava, raga, tala - not just perfect steps. Every student finds their own dance voice.
- **Never too late to start**: Whether you’re 7 or 37, your stage is waiting. Serious learners, yes, it’s a long journey, but always possible.
- **From practice to stage**: Students perform at Margam and Nrithya Sandhya, celebrating hard work and growth in Bharatanatyam stage performance training.
