Kshetram School of Dance 

Educational Approach

My educational approach involves imparting a sense of discipline and tranquility to children by teaching them Bharatanatyam with a structured system. Even though dance training is rigorous, it provides confidence and the freedom to explore oneself over time. The gradual assimilation of these values into a child's life is a key aspect of my teaching approach. My goal is to help children become movement artists in their own unique way.

​

As I continue to learn the various layers of this art form, I encourage my students to ask questions, criticize, and comment. The curriculum is designed as a seven-year program. During the first two years, children learn the basic steps of Bharatanatyam, known as adavus. From year 3 onwards, they begin learning the pieces set to music. Additionally, every year, they learn recitations called slokas from the Abhinayadarpana, rhythm patterns known as Talam, and choreography techniques.
