About Khushi Dance Academy
Khushi Dance Academy's mission is to teach students discipline, concentration, focus, positive attitude, unity, and above all, awareness of Indian culture through classical dance forms. The techniques learned through Bharatanatyam are essential in becoming a versatile, graceful, and strong dancer. A key goal for Khushi Dance Academy is to instill in its dancers an enthusiasm and desire to have a positive influence within their community. We train students for the full Margam of Bharatanatyam and also make them capable of choreographing on their own.
