Dance
I always loved to dance, ever since childhood. I started going to my first dance class around th age of 7 years. I started with western and bollywood dance forms. Although I love all forms of dance, I decided to specialize in Bharatnatyam, which is an Indian Classical Dance from the state of Tamil Nadu, in India. I began Bharatnatyam at the age of 11 years. I graduated after 7 years when I was 17 and about to finish high school. I have performed Bharatnatyam in a number of shows in India. After my move form India to Canada, I found companies that taught Bharatnatyam in Winnipeg. I first joined BRTWinnipeg: Academy of Dance and Music, but I resigned after a semester to join India School of Dance, Music and Theatre Inc. which is where I have been working since the past 2 semesters. The move from BRT to India School was due to more opportunities in teaching and learning various dance pieces. I helped India School with their recital this year. I recently attended Folklorama 2023 and a Kathak Aaradhna (graduation showcase) from India School to support them in their performances.
