Testimonials

Superb. The way of handling class is extraordinary. Patience and kind behavioural approach even though the kids did the mistake again and again. Making correction without any hesitation. Maintaining spirit and eagerness among students is not an easy task. You are doing it great. Thanks.

– Parent of Thejashri, Australia

I am very grateful to Samridhi because I have improved myself a lot as a dancer and we know that online classes have limitations but it is so much fun and we have different assignment based on our module , exercises depends on our health condition and ability, so I am proud to be a student of Guru Rakshita. Our one -to- one sessions are a great experience and I can realize that my real capacity, my passion , my strength and what I have studied earlier is fruitful.

– Keerthima Vijayan, UAE

The sessions were clearly explained and taught with great dedication by Guru Rakshita Raghunathan. The program was very enlightening and helped my daughter learn many important bharatanatyam techniques. We are very grateful. Thank you!
