Aarambha Series

An initiative taken by Dhirana Academy of Classical Dance from June 2020 with an effort to keep students of Dhirana motivated and spirits held high during these difficult times. Senior students of Dhirana Academy of Classical Dance will be participating in the series. Last week of every month two students who are picked up by a lot system will perform for a duration of 30 minutes each.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SERIES: The students have to completely come up with their background settings, item selection, and presentation. By doing this the students are being prepared in every aspect of dance, making them more confident and independent in their art.

There are no upcoming events at this time.
