Groups and Fees
Adavu Groups | 1 Hour Class
Bharatanatyam dance begins with learning the sets of adavus, or basic steps. These are the foundation for the dance style. Students will focus on learning the posture and technique needed through the adavus. As the group advances, students may work towards incorporating these adavus into a simple dance.
$365 Per Quarter
Intermediate Groups | 1.5 Hour Class
After the adavus are complete, students will begin learning items in a traditional Bharatanatyam Margam or repertoire. Students will review adavus, however the expectation is that students have a strong foundation in technique and will start progressing towards more intricate pieces. Students will learn to incorporate expression and stylistic details into their performance.
$475 Per Quarter
Advanced Private Lessons | 1 Hour Class
Advanced private classes are for students with a strong foundation in Bharatanatyam that have already learned a majority, or all, of the items in a Bharatanatyam Margam. Students will continue to learn new pieces, choreography and theory relevant to their goals and level.
