Remember: by ordering our DVDs you support the young dancers and encourage them to continue their dancing careers.

Some of the urgent needs:

  1. Scholarships, costumes, etc for the highly talented students from poor families
    Many talented students' parents cannot afford even the cost of standard costume and accessories, not to speak of the costs of sending their child to take part in a festival or a dance competition, especially if the presence of a live orchestra is required. There are exceptionally gifted students who cannot afford the arangetram costs.

  2. Transportation facilities
    We still have to turn down many invitations to give performances if the transportation is not provided. Besides, many of those children who do not live within a walking distance from the dance studio cannot attend the classes because of the transportation problem. The school should have a mini-bus of its own to provide such a facility. Click here if you would like to send your donation to help us.

  3. Dance studio
    We have recently bought our own premises in KK Nagar, as the number of our students and classes have substantially increased, and renting such a large hall would have cost us about Rs.15000 per month. Click here if you would like to send your donation to help us with the payment of Rs. 21,00,000 (USD $44,000) of the outstanding loan we had to take.

  4. Equipping the dance studio
    A good dance studio needs mirrors, sound system, wooden floor, and - especially in the Indian summer! - air-conditioning. Please contact us if you could donate these items. Otherwise you can click here if you would like to send your donation to help us.

Our dreams

  • One thing that would make the institution financially independent in the long term is a video recording studio of its own, where we could produce videos for TV and for distribution on DVDs. Please contact us if you could donate the professional video, audio, lighting equipment, etc. Or else click here if you would like to send your donation to help us.
