Growth of the Student
As we work with the student over the years, we definitely see the growth of the individual to a teen and adult from a child who walks in the door timidly. The dance demands such a discipline that the students automatically understand character, control, attention, hard work, team work, deadlines etc.
Milestones
Considering Arangetram
After the dancer has had a challangai puja and completed about 4 years of training, please talk to your family and determine that everyone is on board to begin this amazing (but long and challenging!) process.
Tuition
Scholarships
From Within Academy would like to support all deserving dancers regardless of ability to pay. Our scholarships are need-based only.
Class
Leaving the School
We are always sad to see our students leave. If the dancer has lost interest, there is a problem with the teacher, venue, etc - we can generally find a satisfactory resolution.

Syllabus
Here is the typical Syllabus of a Bharatanatyam Course. This is to give you an idea of where your child is… Aptitude will determine how soon your child covers the course.
Milestones
Challangai Puja
We have decoupled the arangetram from the Challangai Puja so that the student is motivated along their path of training and also to increase the impact of the dance on stage. The dancer should prove worthy of the Challangai before wearing it.
