Pre.Elite, Elite Deepthi as Student, Internship and a path.

Ms. Deepthi was launched directly with internship program along with group of adults of semi-classical private package program(to dance for several gigs as well as performances, and to learn to teach) grad as well as several other supervised internships in company work Texas All Star Talents, Reachh Mediaa Since 2013, Grace And Grooves Group of Companies, and The Grace Effects. exclusively under Hetal Nagaraj Dance, Hetal Joshi M

******Successfully delivered all projects that were assigned. ms. deepthi took the work that she thought she could deliver. Never a complaint from any client and maintained all that was assigned. Corrected everything that was supervised for and as received feedbacks from paernts.

Ms Deepthi joined for internship programs at Irving location for Texas All Star Talents and at Reachh Mediaa Since 2013. Ms. Deepthi’s role in Grace And Grooves Group of Companies was exclusively under Hetal Nagaraj Dance, Hetal Joshi M for multiple roles from dancer, staff(Texas All Star Talents), occassional gigs under The Grace Effects and instructor(Hetal Nagaraj Dance‘s own batch of mommy n me programs-adults bollywood).

Ms. deepthi was instructing at our internship program of semi classical for which we have our pre.elite/elite Ms. sindhu as well. Ms. Deepthi has also handled Texas All Star Talents exclusively for 1.5 year.

Other supervisor work includes handling company local DFW operations while Hetal Nagaraj Dance was in India for her MFA residency program/exams as a full time staff (1 month – each year for 2 years).

All the work that was assigned to ms. deepthi was completed satisfactorily for every project that was assigned at her will/time and her ability to handle as per her own schedule. All clients were maintained and happy.

But with several breaks in-between availability and thus, Ms. deepthi’s classes were never announced or was offered Hetal Nagaraj Dance‘s batches as is because of availability.

Ms. deepthi’s other work also included part time or short projects and once a while available because of kids’ commitment(extremely young kids).

***After 2019 program of Sarvaa Cinema Dance And Theater Production Series, ms. deepthi was on her way to family w/longest “absence” in activities of the company with repeated remarks of being unavailable for company gigs (while dancing somewhere else).

In 2023, Ms. deepthi was released with all due respect from all duties of the company.

this was because of Ms. deepthi’s extremely awkward reaction(outbursts) to our accomplishment pictures that were displayed w/ms. deepthi’s picture. this reaction/disrespectful sms to Hetal Nagaraj Dance threatening Hetal Nagaraj Dance for legal action for which ms. deepthi has signed waivers of releases of all the company achievements/pics/videos/insurance. Until 2023, all uploads was okay and then all of sudden in 2023 , this outburst! This wasn’t the first time that ms. deepthi has behaved like this with ms. hetal.

Ms. deepthi as well expected to receive certain perks of certain elites. It was known to Ms. deepthi that ms. deepthi cannot compare herself with those *in-house Elites perks that these Elites earn* as they are available to perform and it is their videos that bring $$ to the business which pays for everything. Their performances/participations are higher in number as well.

We cannot assign a considerable duties or any full-time work to somebody who takes so many breaks throughout the year or multiple years in company while others wait for those opportunities and then back off repeatedly to dance at other programs.

this includes video releases of ms. deepthi’s dances which ms. deepthi requested to post first. We cannot post ms. deepthi’s videos when ms. deepthi wants while ms. deepthi was not available for company everytime company wanted! ***Prior to this as well, we had these incidents with these outbursts in sms and being disrespectful to “other” elites. Those elites perform regularly and consistently without any dance related participations anywhere else.

Either way, these videos are often posted in promos and will be anyways posted sooner or later depending on the order of certain activities.

Deepthi’s launch activities: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.638962231565057&type=3&mibextid=ncKXMA

Accomplishments under Hetalnagaraj :

Deepthi earned perks of nearly 4000$ in just the perks as gigs and she maintained one batch that was ms.hetal’s own batch. Deepthi maintained it well for 2 years(100hrs). Amongst the only texas all star talents choreographer and an intern that was offered a full time position w/full time salary with visa if deepthi agrees to work full time 40hr.

Well, she couldn’t work more than 5hr to 10hr a week so she has to pass this!

Trainings Earned through volunteer hours and other commitments : Rama Vaidyanathan’s workshops-12 hour, margam workshops under hetalnagaraj 10 hr : Ms. deepthi was busy.

Company pays for all our dedicated choreographers trainings for various subjects or workshops to prepare them for being soloist or freelancers.**conditions apply.

Other tainings : Bollywood Training, Semi-classical training, corrections in folk by video sharing and mentorship by hetalnagaraj.

Performed : creative varnam, invocations, creative bharatanatyam on tamil/malayalum literature, shiva series, garvi gujarat series, thillana fusion series, rg2 launch. Guest appearances during several performances as main dancer. List is in process. To be continued.

Bharatanatyam Teaching / Instruction : Was not available to teach regularly or by class dates/consistently and does not know curriculam of order of curriculam and so was never provided either.

Other nominations : 2 times culture awards. Somehow always missing during the important nomination shoots, media and submissions.

Most of our trained artists or students from texas all star talents programs that are willing to learn to teach or do these educational activities join as volunteer programs first and excel all the way to earning several accomplishments in the company. This one being the only one that was offered a full visa with 40hour work schedule dance and non.dance and a salary! Aspriing students/students in high schools/college/universities are welcome to apply for these positions that lead to management as well as key positions. Texas All Star program is currently running only 1 program for existing high school students.(10th grade and up) with and without various scholars programs.

ALL the way from volunteer path to up!
Being a trainer, it is hetalnagaraj’s job to make sure you excel if you are coachable. Hetal creates her own teams so that she can build her own teams from it and the work is thus distributed. This is also one of the reason, ms. hetalnagaraj has herself consistently delivered by genre/category without working for anybody else. And this is one of the reason that hetalnagaraj has never worked for anybody in DFW, Texas or anywhere in performing arts. Mainly because life does call for family and for Ms. hetal herself, ms. hetal had planned her own life just the way she wanted! It is what it is.

Till date, history! The only field where ms. hetal has never worked for anybody or have worked through talent management companies. Most of these are her own classmates and that too from 1999!

Ms. deepthi was reminded at all times that all elites, pre.elites or precisely anybody that dances under Grace And Grooves Group of Companies(and that includes ms.deepthi) have signed these waivers of releases of all outcomes as is.

***Since all our pic/video/as well as costume policies are signed with strict waivers of “photo/video/statement” releases for all the accomplishments as well as all the company statements, we cannot undo those from anywhere because of number of shares or other insights that were attached to these releases as other dancers/elites videos or pictures are in there as well. Some of which are more than 2 to 10million!


We will post more pics and videos later. More about Ms. Deepthi.

Reachh Mediaa Programs : Independent to company as well.

We have several dancers who just want to perform or be the back office staff. Depending on their previous trainings & ability to perform, these dancers can pick and choose the list of activities under entire company’s program list as well as brand where these dancer can succeed! Supervision is provided in full as needed depending on activities these dancers choose as paid consult.

These bharatanatyam dancers are futher classified as margam dancer and nonmargam dancers depending on their ability to perform/identify techniques or requirements by each dance piece of asked to perform or showcase! These dancers are guided by Hetal Nagaraj depending on requirements of client or by margam depending on type of performance (as required).

Since these are trained dancers(ms.deepthi’s types) of margam institute, these students are guided at all times to just include some techniques (without teaching them like you would to a student) or by visual interface (as these are trained dancers from margam schools and so can perform). This is unlike several dancers who are taught in non-margam institute who can’t showcase or identify techniques or are unaware of those techniques and so are thus taught techniques as you would to a student under our refreshers program tech by tech by each dance piece! – Hetal Nagaraj Dance.

In several instances for Bharatanatyam, Ms. Deepthi was asked to follow several margam essentials to call it that dance piece (which she herself decided not to) and thus submissions were not possible! Ms. Hetal had reminded Ms. Deepthi several times that she is making grave mistake by not following margam because then there is no difference between Ms. Deepthi and others but Ms. Deepthi did not listen unless strictly the work was thoroughly as a team led and taught by Ms. Hetal. Thus was not called for margam activities.

Congratulations Ms. Deepthi for amazing achievements with the company! Wishing you well.

Therefore, Ms.deepthi was succesful with whatever time she could commit to the company under @hetalnagaraj. It was ms.deepthi’s request to only work for @hetalnagaraj and first hand elites.

Experience of Ms.Hetal Joshi M for kids of all ages! Must read. Strongly recommend.

Experience of Ms.Hetal Joshi M for kids of all ages! Must read. Strongly recommend.

This was submitted today for some company & ms.hetal’s intro.

My website : hetaln.com.

I specialize in kids related activities from 1999 in all age groups. My speciality is from 8 years and up as certified international trainer in several fields.

Since I have personally worked in Montessori schools, elementary schools once a while I do take age groups of 4.5 years to 8 years because of my *hands onn training” at Montessori and recreation programs. I am able and well aware of these age groups.

  • 1. New Age montessori – parent of the year volunteer commitments
  • 2. PTO commitments Vice President Universal Academy : Most loved parent of the Parents Board till date – History with remarkable developments in schools from fundraisers to activities and development ideas in schools for school’s growth, establishing vendors and clients for sponsorships and school fundings.

    • Universal Academy – all grades, Irving and Coppell Locations,
    • Universities and Colleges : UT, UTD – Dallas & Arlington,
    • Collin College,
    • Dallas county colleges,
    • Dallas County Students Association
    • and City official,
    • Several chamber of commerce programs affiliated to these educational facilities.
  • – Proposed by Collin County as well for one of their programs-could not take it as i was preoccupied.
  • – Proposed by (name hidden) Schools Network as well-could not take it as i was preoccupied.

Cities that I have worked with and often work with for various programs ALL age groups –

  • – Cities worked with for all age groups and/or are my regular clients:
    • City of Irving
    • City of Frisco
    • City of Southlake
    • Grapevine City via 3rd party contract – till date client of ours. 10 years.
    • City of Dallas several activities.
    • Library Programs Direct city programs as well
    • Several Orgs/Parents Associations,

  • Chamber of Commerce – Tarrant, Collin, Denton Corporate offices, Dallas and many more.
  • Fortworth Organizations, Fortworth/Arlington R**** Associations, 2 Charter Schools, Stadium Gigs
  • Nominated twice by Governer, Mayors – Arlington and at Fortworth. Pics are in the performance folder 2015-2016-2017

This is just experience of ms.hetalnagaraj by herself. This is other than the experience in India or commercial projects and several are purely educational!

This experience also tells anybody about the number of kids or students i have handled single handed without any issue and also without a single complaint (irrespective of dance). Till date history as of 2022.

I take several children wellness projects of very young (below 5 years old) kids to understand certain behaviors of children. These were mostly for special needs and kids with other ailments or i had to closely watch their reactions to understand their psychology on a normal day. There are normal kids as well for which I offer these services.

Rare learning and Montessori(s) was my lowest job (lol, it was not about money) but these places have those kids i was looking for to work for a client! how much can you gain an experience with your own kids or just students that are enrolled at our companies?

Ppl might think why would you spend time at such lower level when your average hour is 400$ to 500$ per hour. It is very simple. Sometimes to achieve on higher grounds, you have to work at below ground zero or at ground zero. Thus today’s success. Never be ashamed to work at ground levels or with your teams as a team member. That is where magic is and so I own everything you do without any name anywhere.

Just my wellness client is 70$ to 100$ an hour minimum and those client treatments and meal plans are for months. To understand certain age groups, or special needs, behavior and patterns if any, these are the only places.

How much can you gain experience with your own kids or just the kids at our dance school!

They may not match any characteristics or anything as matter of fact. For dance and some other fields(www.hetaln.com), more than 3500 students are instructed as of 2022 under hetalnagarajdance! More than 150 graduates exclusive to hetalnagaraj. That’s Ms. Hetal’s experience in all ages just her own experience.Define part time. Part Time until 2019.

And then follows rules, laws, waivers, compliance, forms, background check, drug check, security, alcohol tests, first aid certification requirement, and so onn. List is huge!

Logic is very simple. When you do it then you know it. When you know it then chances of success are higher. See ms.hetal at some pre.school for few weeks or probably once while at certain place only. Well, this is the reason!

One life 🙂 thus success in each age group.

Just be careful before you come to Ms. Hetal with some acts of stupidity. Ms. Hetal is a trainer. Ms. Hetal will catch you because all classes are fully recorded for quality purposes and Ms. Hetal’s transparency, full traceability and success ratio with full proof preceeds almost all the people in her fields.

To mention, Ms. hetal was caregiver for own younger brother at the age of 11. Life was too early. A girl at an age of 22 who wanted to get married and have kids(along with career) because ms. hetal wanted her own family. Who dreams of creating life around family. Before anybody knew, Ms. Hetal made it happen. www.hetaln.com.

NEW TO YOU ?

We were not joking when we said that without Hetal Nagaraj Dance’s word, anything will not move in this company. Hetal Nagaraj Dance doesn’t have to sign any papers or Hetal Nagaraj Dance doesn’t have to write her own name on ownership as well. We call this “owning the company without paperwork”. Every student, ms. hetal is made exclusively by hetalnagaraj with 100% transparency. Without transparency, ms. hetal does not allow any instructor to get hold of anybody.

Just safety of students and obviously benchmark every 9 to 12 weeks. After all, we are a dance school!

To be this, you have to be this transparent and create this BIG :  https://www.facebook.com/hetalnagarajdance/photos_albums

Private packages at our locations! Yes pls, hetaljoshim

By exclusively hetal joshi m!

With more than 112 private packages sold exclusively by hetal joshi m, you will wonder how 🙂

Ms. Hetal’s Specialities in couples classes that Ms. hetal took for herself.


Lot of ppl ask me why several pics at my own house or at our designated locations that are open late hours? This is because these are private classes with packages.

Most private packages are by hrs (3,5,10,15,25,30,52 or ad hoc as you need +1 or -1 here and there) are booked in extremely odd hours than the regular standard class routine times. Most of these occur “around the regular class hours” or at times, i get calls during my practice or lesson hours if my clients can come by for an hour or 2.

I don’t mind because they are families and couples. They don’t mind because i am that settled in life with all grown up kids & it is one of my speciality that i am known for too in couples world! Some come by just to spend time with me as these people have gone through some trauma and need their head off it or something to do together as couples. It is insanely sweet! And then, we have other clients such as kids, families, our own in-house students taking other private packages, by genre and category as well for their other programs or competitions or at times submissions or sometimes it is just to learn and have some fun in their own personal time (other than regular group classes).

I have clients that drive for me up-to 3-6 hr drive or are from other states occasionally for these package classes as their destination wedding is in DFW or most of their relatives are in DFW.
These are booked at client’s convinience of timings and are 100% custom as requested. Several couples come by to perform too if they are local or if they want to perform/represent me or my companies by genre or category in my local culture programs. yes all the listed albums on hetalnagaraj dance are 100% true and all of them are by invoices and emails or paperwork or by artist management companies. Reachh Mediaa was taken over only after 2019-2020-2021. Prior to this, Reachh Mediaa was one of our vendors and clients depending on projects.

My latest private class has ended at 11pm-1130pm. Earliest i think was 530/6am! I don’t do house-calls but I do encourage having a studio nearby or a facility with approved insurance and such amenities. I do lot of commercial gigs and so often i practice late after my regular routine classes. And so my front portion of house is all studio/dance setup w/proper designated space/rooms, mirror, speakers, lights & my own personal and my Elites’ all access costume room. Ppl just come by to any of my locations depending on my timings and schedules.
Everybody in family dances too and are this busy with their own gigs as well so these activities are never a problem or a disturbance.

I don’t do reels at least until now. may be soon!

This is also the reason that we never felt the need of “announcing adult classes in bollywood as those private class clients are easily available to perform as well”. All until 2022 when i thought of launching them commercially w/proper performing team for Reachh Mediaa Since 2013 gigs to do MORE. Several of these local clients join our other regular classes too & viz a versa. Our other programs such as “mommy and me” were also serving to programs for adults performance batches by genre or category.

Prior to 2022, I had my own folk and bharatanatyam adults grads, my seniors/classmates for upto 10 years before/after me and one of our adults elite line grads were from irving too in bollywood(ms. deepthi and sindhu’s grps) + our choreographers often form a team and we have lot of young elites so somebody is always available! so that was working out by 2022.

Package pricing varies by custom list of services, genre, category, goals. At times, there is no purpose to these private packages. Families just come to have fun while we announce some specials or promotions during some celebrations of our brand acheivements. Just like all our programs, this one is also a best seller!

More than 112 packages sold by exclusively hetal joshi m / hetal nagaraj. Company achievements for private packages are countable and not counted in these lists of hetal nagaraj’s own achievements and those will be posted very soon! This is mostly because all choreographers were either part-time or it was difficult for them to do those.

Ms. Hetal has speciality in couples, marriage sangeet community folk as well as bollywood dances along with latin and several other by genre and at times, by category specialities.

New to you ?

– direct from fb post on @hetalnagarajdance page

Variety of private packages are conveniently listed for those who would like to see all the fun activities that we do at grace and grooves or under hetalnagarajdance.

Usually most packages are priced at 350$-400$ to 700$ for 5 hours and then other charges applicable depending on type of work/requests and requirements. This is because of specialities and specifications/clarity requested such as latin, hiphop, salsa, waltz, ballroom, fusion latin, cinematography and so on!

So far 112 successfully delivered and some of which are returning clients or 2nd generation of clients exclusively by Hetal Joshi M.

Do you know ? Ms. Hetal’s highest 5 hour package sold till date is 1500$ for an elite program with specific list of requirements for an extremely advance dancer couple from California.

#yes #hetalnagaraj #hetaljoshim #Hetal

Dancers Paradise means More!!! Hetal Joshi M

Dancers Paradise means More than you thought. Here’s the example of our own owner who performs back to back in multiple genres and specialities.

Link : https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.759694799491799&type=3

In this album, it is about “number of performances” as a classified count. Each performance is entirely different performance. Each performance may or may not be in entire different genre.

***Occassionally costumes are similar too and that depends on programs if we have any time in-between 2 performances to change the clothing/costume!

Thus, some pictures might seem like “same picture or same thing” but it is “not the same performance so how it is the same thing 🙂“.

***It is an entire different performance and at times in entire different genre too (multiple genre speciality) and thus it has to be posted again!

***During commercial programs, we don’t perform for 1 performance because of all the makeup, hair/clothing that goes in each performance and level of these dances are entirely on different levels. Minimum dance run time or booking of each program/event for us is 30 mins to 1 hour. And so, we don’t get much time to change the costumes.

***Occassionaly in public culture shows, we perform for 5 mins just once because of time limit. Since our elites and myself often cover several dancers/musicals or danceathons, we often dance MORE dances/performance as group or solo than most average dancers. This is because of “multi-speciality” and my trainings to my Elites.

*** For competitions, it is by competitions rules about the time duration of each performance or if multiple rounds or multiple genres are allowed.

*** In school recitals depending on teams or the levels of programs, each dancer may or may not dance multiple times in multiple performances 🙂. School productions too similar.

***We are a dancers’ company/paradise. A place where dancers are “allowed” to perform “more” than just once. Your capacity and so most welcome to do it.

***We too have to think about costume budgets so occassionally several costumes are repeated depending on genre or requested by client. And because we are one of the highest costume seller of award winning costumes too, sometimes some costumes are picked again and again by almost all clients, as is.

We are pointed to direct links that we submit as our company that i want this costume/performance and these exact dancers 🙂. these clients/producers/organisers pay for it so we have to give exactly what they want and by genre or category. Names of dancers are also provided as it is required for insurance purposes. It is that clear.

***Each performance is minimum 3 to 5 or 8mins depending on genre/category or as requested/by genre and this includes entry and exit of stage and with entire new song/medley if so!

*** This is not to confuse with medley of song that is : multiple songs/remixes in one song. This performance album means each picture resembles entire different medley if you want to understand it that way. Only bollywood & new trends has that medley switch of songs while most other genres usually stick to 1 song or 1 remix for the whole dance. New to you ?

Grace And Grooves is honored to be the only Indian Dance School with straight/transparent background for all the programs offered with straight legacy of their guru(s) and teachers. ​

Why Grace And Grooves dance school students don’t perform that often in culture activities

Why our dance school students don’t perform in culture activities that often ?

Because there are so many culture and community shows and the dates of submission of these programs are atleast 1 month prior. Our curriculam classes start by date to date with a year round program with holidays and a full structure by genre, by skill, by age group. The program was designed this way by hetalnagaraj so that she can spend time with her family and still she can deliver the projects as well as all that she loves to do with 100% results and successful delivery!

Students should learn to balance their life and learn all activities along with education and with family just like the way she learned and it makes life! See this : http://www.hetaln.com!

Also, we never had anybody full time till date – HISTORY in that. And so, Hetal takes limited batches by location, genre and because of this automatically it becomes easy for her to focus on curriculam programs than jumping to different culture programs with delivery dates.

And yet, we have programs that are by delivery date that are conducted seperately than regular programs as in packages. We have delivered successfully entertainment programs too! Those run entirely seperate on seperate pace and levels.. Record breaking package classes!

For learners, aligning the date to perform as a rush becomes a tedious job. This is because the bodies are learning skills/mastering muscle memory and in that, how much will you push. Dance cannot be sports because in sports, expressions and poise is something that is not required! In dance, everything is required with emotions as per dance and the moods. Kids find it difficult to smile or express as per dance requirement if kids are going through “rushed training”. This often leads to burn out and the whole delicacy, smooth delivery, poise, expressions, elegence, body toning, conditioning is compromised just to perofrm. In longer run, this results to unhealthy habits to body often leading to injuries and sprains. Students don’t learn to focus on several aspects as in personality itself. See our Hetal Nagaraj, despite of several sports injuries, all this is achieved in performing arts – after the sports injury!.

Dance is so pure that it was never meant to hurt anybody the time it started! Look one of the example that we have achieved in performing arts because of our straight background. Dance is this pure. click here. Several other examples are set here.

Do you know the audiences that we talk about usually “come to see only us” for performances, workshops and so on!

Being a dance school with a structured curriculum and level by level skill sets and by date classes, our routine dance school students performance rarely aligns with local cultural shows submissions or date of performance.

Our submissions are entirely different and are often commercial.

Unlike several dance schools that push on performing to align with dates of performances, our curriculam runs independently with our own in-house shows that are planned as per curriculam completion by date and skills achievement.

***It is very much like your child completing 9 weeks in your school and expected to learn some skills or knowledge in those 9 weeks by each subject/program or genre or category.

This is also the reason why our curriculam supplements to several ISDs and programs in several schools. We have worked with more than 6 ISD-schools and about a dozen institutes/colleges for various programs. This is exclusive to Hetal Nagaraj’s own knowledge as her entire training was year by year, skill by skill at her institutes by each genre, one step at a time or twice a week or thrice a week programs + commercially she has performed by genre and category. So students are taught everything!

Here’s why she has never applied for ISD positions : Click here.

Ever applied to hollywood/bollywood : Nope. Here’s why.

So you will rarely see our groups performing in local community or culture shows. And there are so many culture shows. There are several students & elites or pre.elites who may not have performed in any culture shows or these students dance at only our in-house programs.

Obviously, in 12 hours it is expected to see some results for most average beginer level students & so onn at different levels w/age.

This includes our own workshops and several other activities we do. However, Hetal Nagaraj Dance is hired by org/schools/universities/companies/institutions & so onn or parents for their own performances at those community culture programs and those group packages are held seperately w/date of delivery in mind. Occasionally, company releases these pkgs too on request from several intermediate students with goal in mind! These pkgs are by demand only.

And yes, students learn by level, skills , category and genre too. Hetal Nagaraj has a straight/transparent background level by level year by year(avg 52 hrs min). Thus, Hetal Nagaraj Dance has a dedicated admin that handles her own + company activities! It is the other way round because of her own schedule by activity & field is this “high”.

New to you? From 400 ppl to 2000 ppl for workshops & in her own shows or activities and upto 4000 ppl for entertainment successfully entertained under @hetalnagaraj, Hetal Joshi M exclusively + the team efforts at Grace And Grooves Group of Companies.

@hetalnagaraj bags them all. For culture/community shows up to 10,000 audiences entertained with a “live” in 4 countries on stage under @hetalnagaraj.

Looking for “bigger number audiences” ofcourse & exclusively ours preferred. Define part-time. Programs such as bharatanatyam commenced in 2014-15, amongst our latest offering & students by category have performed and won awards too in all types of activity. Students learn everything including $$$.

****Possibilities with an open mind, by genre, by category, by level, by age group, positivity to welcome ideas, goals, purposes within the company itself from all directions and all achieved.

Our philosophy is ruled & backed with 100% straight transparency background with full transparency and with results by each genre, category, programs, levels & age. We do it then we talk about it. We don’t do reels for secondary media.

If we told you that you can earn upto 400$ an hour in performing arts or 100 to 150$ for 1-2 performance and bag a client or get a project in 4 figures, would you care to make reels or care for the likes of people or likes on your page? You may care to do so “additionally” but not as replacement. See, it is that simple. We don’t discourage those activities but this is mainstream educationment/education/instruction and yet it is commercial performing arts and that is how it is. And yep, our elites have earned those too depending on their availabilty as our elites are scholars in their education as well.

That is why, Hetal Nagaraj herself doesn’t care about those reels and likes because hetal has experienced what matters at the end of the day. It paid for everything + achieved too by genre and category. It also paid for our 501 3 c non profit programs! Charity is fueled too + earnings. Obviously in future, we may think of all the other activities but as an inclusion. Not as a replacement! What’s your philosophy based on ? Do you have anything worth showing that backs your philosophy?

As the annual dance recitals are planned by curriculam expected to meet by students in certain time frame, the dances and the musicals in all our dance forms are at level where we can easily convert them into an exclusive dance production pertaining to respective forms, and styles. Thus, offering our students a real experience to students of each and every aspect of performing arts.
