I teach Bharatanatyam, Carnatic Vocal Music, and Yoga, and my journey as a teacher spans several decades. I began teaching Bharatanatyam in 1984 and have continued nurturing students in this classical art form for over 40 years. Later, I expanded my teaching to Carnatic vocal music, in which I now have 25 years of experience, and Yoga, where I have been training students for the past 18 years. My passion has always been to help students discover discipline, grace, confidence, and inner balance through these traditional art forms. My foundation in Bharatanatyam comes from a comprehensive 6-year Diploma program completed at Ghantasala Venkateswara Rao Government College of Music and Dance, Vijayawada, under the guidance of Smt. Vasireddy Kanakadurga Garu. I also hold a Senior Diploma in Carnatic Music (Vocal) from Bangiya Sangeeta Parishad, Kolkata. My training in Yoga began in 2007 at the renowned Bihar School of Yoga, Munger and Rikhia Peeth, where I also completed a Kriya Yoga course. Additionally, I hold a Bachelor of Commerce degree from Nagarjuna University. Over the years, I have had the honour of presenting several memorable performances. One of the highlights of my journey was a special Bharatanatyam performance before His Excellency, the Governor of Andhra Pradesh, Sri Krishna Kanth, in 1990, which received great appreciation. My students have also performed before Governor Sri Surjeet Singh Barnala in 2004. Their achievements and the recognition they have received reflect not only their talent but also the training and guidance they received. Teaching has allowed me to mentor hundreds of students who have gone on to win competitions, perform on prestigious stages, and establish themselves as confident artists. Many of them have received awards and felicitations from various cultural organizations. Their progress has always been the most rewarding aspect of my career. I have also been honoured by several institutions for my contribution as a teacher, choreographer, and Yoga instructor. I conduct both online and offline classes, depending on the learners’ requirements. My classes are structured, progressive, and interactive. Whether a student is a beginner or an advanced learner, I make sure each session is suited to their pace and level. I focus on building strong fundamentals, enhancing practical skills, and ensuring that students understand the theoretical aspects of the art forms as well. My teaching method includes the use of PPTs, videos, animations, whiteboards, and audio–video learning materials to make lessons engaging and meaningful. I also provide notes, reference books, assignments, tests, and homework, ensuring continuous learning and improvement. Many of my students appear for exams conducted by universities and examination boards, and I assist them in preparing thoroughly. With every class, my aim is to inspire students to appreciate the depth of Indian classical arts and to help them grow as disciplined performers, knowledgeable learners, and confident individuals. My long teaching journey has taught me that learning these art forms is not just about skill—it is about character, dedication, and lifelong passion.
