Tiny tots to senior level students are given personal attention because we firmly believe that a strong foundation is of utmost importance for the development of a fine dancer. Our approach is more inclined towards performance training and preparing Kuchipudi performers of tomorrow. Simultaneously, we also focus on necessary academic orientation needed to prepare dancers for the future.
