Our Offerings
At Dhwani Dance Academy, we offer expert-led lessons in two of the most popular styles of Indian dance: Bollywood and Bharatanatyam. Each style has its unique charm and cultural significance, making them perfect for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the art of dance.
Bollywood dance is known for its energetic and expressive movements, combining various styles and influences. Our Bollywood classes focus on rhythm, coordination, and performance skills. Whether you are a complete beginner or have some experience, our instructors will guide you through fun routines that enhance your creativity and confidence. The vibrant music and lively choreography will leave you feeling invigorated and inspired.
Bharatanatyam
Bharatanatyam, one of the oldest classical dance forms in India, is characterized by its intricate footwork, expressive hand gestures (mudras), and storytelling through dance. Our Bharatanatyam classes emphasize traditional techniques, including posture, expressions, and rhythm. Students will learn the significance of each movement and the stories behind the performances. This form of dance not only improves physical fitness but also fosters a deep appreciation for Indian culture and artistry.
