Message

At GD Goenka Public School, Dwarka, I design and deliver annual dance curricula and lesson plans for students in Grades 3–12. I bring classical, folk, contemporary, and theme-based learning into the classroom.

I contributed to CBSE Board curriculum development for Bharatanatyam and general dance, and have facilitated educator training in Hong Kong, Gothenburg, Vienna, and Delhi. My workshops explore how movement can support learning, including a teacher-training workshop at Kalidasa Academy, Ujjain.

As Performing Arts Department Head in 2020–2021, I trained approximately 10 teachers and supported educator capability development. I also conduct workshops and masterclasses with Jyotsna Shourie Dance Society & Keelaka Dance Company, and contribute to dance productions.
