Bharatnatyam: Indian classical dance

Being a very hyper active child, I always searched for new adventures to involve myself in. My mom decided that if she enrolled me for dance class, I’ll be occupied for two hours and will feel tired after the class and that will help me sleep early and not stay up night. I was excited for my first day of class but after fifteen minutes in to the class, being the very lazy person I am, I didn’t want to continue hardworking. My mom made me practice every day and I didn’t enjoy it at all. I started improving in my dancing technique greatly and my dance teacher appreciated me for my huge improvement. The credit goes to my mom who forced me to practice every day. Slowly, I started liking dance and now I love it.  Thus, my mom’s efforts to make me practice every day reduced gradually because I didn’t need anyone else to ask me to practice as I loved dancing. I then started going for inter school competitions and started bagging prizes and awards which played a huge role in encouraging me to work harder. I acquired knowledge from various dance teachers from all around India and practiced various styles of Indian classical dance for about 12 years now. I frequently gave solo performances and enthusiastically took part in dance dramas and group dances. I always had a passion towards teaching, which I wanted to try now that I wanted to share my knowledge and experience with young budding children and therefore I started giving dance classes. I have 5 students now aging from 5-10. I enjoy giving classes and interacting with these little wonderful children.
