Dance is a way to express oneself when words are insufficient. It awakens new perceptions and creates a way for you to express yourself and communicate your ideas. It brings true joy and solace that you might have never know to exist! What are your experiences with dance? Share with us what dance makes you feel!

An excerpt from Sri Ramachandra Bhajan from Kalapeetham Student Night 2016. Performed by the Kalapeetham Alumni. I'm sure all of miss performing on stage especially more so now as Student Night this year has been postponed to 2021 due to the covid situation.

Student Night is an annual event organised by Kalapeetham when all students are given an opportunity and the exposure to perform on a big stage to a large audience. Every year students eagerly await this time of the year to showcase their art to their friends and family. Contact us if you're interested to join our Kalapeetham family. Registration opens soon.

Can't really practise dance at home due to lack of space or complains from neighbours (stamping)?? Don't worry you can do these short 3min leg conditioning workouts to strengthen your legs and hold your aramandis lower and for longer!

Do these diligently but remember to give yourself enough rest (at least 1 day) inbetween the workouts! Strength is established only when your muscles are allowed to rest and recover! Happy strengthening!!
