Gopika V.

I have been teaching dance since 2011. I hold an MPA in Kuchipudi from Reva University and a Diploma in Bharatanatyam. Additionally, I have an MSC in physics, which might seem like an unusual combination, but my passion for dance and science is integral to who I am. After completing my Masters in dance, I got a job in the Mallapuram district and continued teaching dance there. I participated in Azone and intercollege Coimbatore competitions during my college days, winning many awards. Some of my students have also won school-level competitions under my guidance.
Dance has been a part of my life since I was six, and I started teaching in tenth grade. Initially, I had my dance school, but due to the pandemic, I shifted to teaching online via Urban Pro. I specialise in teaching Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi, and my classes are held online for students who are four years and above. I offer different packages, such as six months and one hour per week, which includes interactive practical and theory sessions. My goal is to make the classes engaging and enjoyable for my students.
Learning dance is not just about perfecting the steps but also understanding the culture and history behind it. I provide videos of my dance performances and notes to my students to achieve this. It helps them understand the dance form and appreciate it better. Teaching dance has been an incredibly fulfilling experience for me, and I'm grateful to be able to share my passion with others. I strive to make my classes accessible, engaging, and enjoyable for all my students. Watching them grow as dancers and individuals is a rewarding experience, and I feel proud to be a part of their journey.
