Before you write

The questions people hesitate to ask.

I'm an adult with no background. Is it too late?

No. Kalaarnavaa exists because of exactly this question. Our founder was away from dance for fifteen years before she tied the ghungroos on again — the school was built so that no student is ever told they are too old, too late, or too anything, to dance.

How young can a child start?

We teach students from five years upward. Below that, the body and the attention span usually aren't ready for the discipline the form asks for, and starting too early tends to put children off.

Do I need any experience at all?

None. Posture, rhythm and form are taught the right way from day one — that grounding is the whole point, and it is easier to build than to correct later.

Do you teach online?

Yes. Online batches run on Saturdays and Sundays across all disciplines, for students outside Bengaluru or with weekday schedules that won't bend.

Which days would I be coming in?

It depends on the discipline and the centre — Bharatanatyam and Carnatic music run on different days. The three centres and their days are listed above.
