Located in the Washington, D.C. area, Nritya Niketan was founded by Dr. Janaki Rangarajan in order to promote Bharatanatyam (a South Indian classical dance form) and Carnatic music in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C.
Janaki received her dance training from the renowned Dr. Padma Subrahmanyam
who is the leading proponent of the Bharatanrityam style of
Bharatanatyam.
Classes are held in Alexandria, Virginia.
The next new session for children/teens will be starting on SEPTEMBER 12, 2009 (9-10AM). Please contact us for more information. Minimum enrollment necessary for class to commence.
For adults interested in lessons, please contact us for more information.
The policy at Nritya Niketan is to hold a meeting with prospective students before enrolling them for a class. During the meeting, we will discuss our curriculum and our expectations from our students. After the meeting, if the student wishes to enroll in the class, we will make the necessary arrangements.
In conjunction with Kuchipudi Dance Academy, we offer a monthly dance theory class in
Gaithersburg, Maryland from 7:30-9PM on Fridays for students of Indian
classical dance styles (such as Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi). The class is open to students of other dance schools in the Maryland, Virginia and DC area. Please contact us for more details.
