Asidegraceandgrooves group by hetal joshi Leave a comment

Elite Lines – 21+ Only.

As of May 2026, Ms Hetal has 10 Elite Lines in various countries including USA.

Ms Hetal wanted to go all passive in 2021 itself as she had exclusively achieved by 2015-2019 itself thus, G2 was planned accordingly.

Elite Line at first, was a noisy tantrum request to Ms Hetal to do more and be with company, and as independent as well.

Idea was instilled to exist by Digvijay Singh because of his massive corporate experience and basic knowhow of local compliance in 2017-2018.

It was for his soon to graduate son. Around the time, his son graduated as a business major with MNC corporate job. This entry in corporate worlds made him understand complexities of work life and basic compliance.

Upon graduation from Ms Hetal in 2019-2020, he just needed artistic direction and other leadership guidance of Ms Hetal.

This idea sparked in all of Ms. Hetal’s 21+ adult students Graduates and Elites and own kids too loved the idea.

This created Elite Lines and thus 1 to 7 were lined up in 2019-2020-2021 itself.

8, 9,10 graduated and became Elites and Elite Lines back to back from 2020-2026.

2022-2024 work was nearly at paused levels because of massive multiple fraud to company and to Ms Hetal.

All 10 are Exclusive graduates, Elites of Ms Hetal Joshi Nagaraj.

Company stands on 60+ official brand list and soon operative.

Current Eligibility as per those in this program, is minimal –

  1. Country status –
    • citizenship,
    • Any other visa status that does not restrict any type of work or permissible payment modes.
  2. Must be in full 360 corporate life to understand complexities of compliance or work life unless trained under Ms Hetal Joshi Nagaraj.
  3. Must follow contract and waivers.
  4. Must report weekly on all activities.
  5. Must be a full Graduate or an Elite of Hetal Joshi Nagaraj
  6. Must represent company or Ms Hetal exactly in manner of verbiage provided on every specific activities of approved tasks.

  8. Must get full approval of all tasks assigned
  9. Remuneration subject to contract and waivers-through assigned portal id.
  10. All work post production must be regularly submitted in master file.

By all means fight with Ms Hetal :). Hahaha

Good tantrums are always welcome. But give before you ask, just as Ms Hetal does 🙂.

Ms Hetal loves stubborn, rebellious, natural geniuses, hyper, mature, playful, mini gordans, karens, attitude, audacity, john doe(s), and notorious people too. As a trainer, she welcomes whatever crazy brain drives you to be.

But, it is a skill to entertain such positive stubbornness.

Ms.Hetal is woman who holds bulls by his horns, lions by their pride, elephants by their strength, politics by power, scorpions by their sting, people by their brains, snake by their poison, wolves by their packs, strategies by facts, and criminals by their crime. It’s called :).

All okay, just not at the cost of harm to kids.

— Do not copy any word, verbiage, picture or any wordings of Ms Hetal as it is full trademarked, some copyright received and some ip too, by country – 2012-current

    • For those who may not be aware, Ms. Hetal had also intended to pursue a course at the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT).

    • Notably, Ms. Deepthi assisted in tailoring exactly as per Ms. Hetal’s designs and precision cuts for one of company’s own large-scale order when shipment was delayed by local manufacturer for Bollywood Pre.Elites in Irving, ensuring timely fulfillment. On a joke, once they raced who was faster. machine or Ms. Hetal. Guess, who won! Ms. Hetal. It took them just 2 days to complete the whole order.

2014-2015 : The project of uploading all the company developments/activities specifically of Hetal Joshi M, Hetal Nagaraj (being an owner, highest contributor due to availability, and the only full timer to the company) and the company’s uploads on social medias were initiated in 2014-2015 by Ms. Jinal Shah(not to mistake with Jigar Shah) and Ms. Jaimini Vyas/Raval, Dubai/India. (Not to mistake with Mr. Jaimin Patel-USA) to highlight the extra ordinary achievements which were exceptional in 2014 itself.

This blog was also an effort for performing arts research students that initiated the need for the first blog post for a research publication (required one public post from the submission coordinator – Hetal Joshi M/Hetal Nagaraj). Since then, it is also used for highlighting the accomplishments/achievements of the company and the activities under Ms. Hetal’s leadership as well.

However, the need for pictures/activity count/activity upload was triggered initially due to regular requests and requirement for transparency/visibility with full specifications by publicly declared award org such as news/publishing houses/mainstream media.

G2 Dance Factory, Arlington Performing Arts Graduates.

Asidegraceandgrooves group by hetal joshi 1 Comment

G2 Dance Factory, Arlington-Texas – Graduates of Performing Arts : Jan 2021 to March 31, 2023.

Brand kept on-hold at Arlington location due to owner’s (Hetal Nagaraj, Hetal Joshi M) personal goals vs time + huge fraud experience/mess. About Ms. Hetal Joshi Nagaraj : www.hetaln.com.

About G2 Dance Factory’s history. It is our sister-brand from & by our award winning dance company/registered-group/teams to train individuals for high budget performing arts, also provide regular dance lessons and was established by Hetal Joshi Nagaraj for her first line of Elites in 2012-2013 in multiple genres in Irving & Carrollton-Coppell areas of Texas, USA in multiple genres : Grace Creations Fusion Dance Company. In 2021, G2 dance factory papers were approved and entire studio was remodelled with custom floors, by the settys and Hetal Joshi Nagaraj with certified contractors. Several floor testing was done by our elites such as Ms. Aahana, The Settys and other local dance friends of Ms. Hetal Joshi M who visited G2, at every layer of floor and we all wanted the high speed and safe floors to be flawless for shoots/stunts/stills/competitions.

Ms. Hetal specializes in re-modeling and construction through her networks and her own “direct” experience in remodeling and construction from scratch for 5 projects(India and USA with min 1 crore INR to 750K US$). This includes her own house in USA that she has fully customized just the way she wanted with builders. Some of blue-prints has Ms. Hetal’s name on it as designer 🙂

Other locations, commercial projects in Dallas, Fortworth, Arlington and surrounding areas of our regular clients will continue as per schedule and all. All the other activities as well will continue.

Most of below listed are private classes, on request, exclusive to Hetal Joshi M, Hetal Nagaraj and a few G2 Team members : Success

5 shoots of Reachh Mediaa exclusive to Hetal Joshi M, Hetal Nagaraj : Success

Sports shoot with stunts and choreography, Commercial project shoot with stills, Educational institute submission shoots with technique showcase, Portfolio shoot by genre, Party shoot dance shot-submission.

Justin Yoon : grads with Ms. Hetal – listed here. Justin was never available at g2 location in person because he moved to other state by the time g2 city-permits were received to conduct any activities.

Since most/almost all of our 2021 classes were still going online or hybrid for the entire year of 2021 until Oct 2021, Justin assisted by curriculam in hiphop classes of Ms. Hetal’s own batch as per his timezone-availability at Lewisville location(-in person at lewisville & online for the others b’coz of hybrid). All students performed at their levels in August 2021 mega show of 3 productions + outdoor shoots and outdoor productions in one day introducing G2 dance factory.

Ms. Hetal broke all records of 3 stage-shows in one day with her own exclusive students + her elites’ first batches – Ms. Ashna & The Settys (Nirja Setty & Samarth Setty) + Outdoor shoots + Outdoor productions by genre + Several Elites graduated by location, by genre and by program too + her other choreographers’ contributed batches(Ms. hetal is now a grandma) that usually perform in Ms. Hetal’s shows!

G2 first line of staff was hired early despite instructions to Ms. Taylor(first manager of g2) about city permits and previous tenant pending permits to city which delayed the remodling/flooring. From all the staff hired, we could only use Justin as hiphop and contemporary batches were in-session under Ms. Hetal and so he was assigned as per his timezone-availability-1 to 2 batches. Ms. Taylor was asked to take one but she did not have any experience teaching teens so we waited to assign any batch. The other hiphop and contemporary students choosed to stay with Ms. Hetal as most dances were about to be done and camps were in person with Ms. Hetal at Lewisville & Frisco FM423 with strict instructions of “in=person class” only. Infact, by the time we received permits to run the business or to remodel the place, the entire first hire of staff had either moved to other cities or we had to let them go because of “early hire and zero work”. Ms. Hetal’s students refused to leave Ms. Hetal or take any online class for any of the specialities from anybody.

Justin was moved to G1 from the time he was hired. Justin was fully experienced with technicalities of hiphop by level and in his specialities dealing with kids & teens of all ages. Ms. Hetal takes his paid-choreo work for hiphop for the students that were trained under both since several students of Ms. Hetal and G1(grace and grooves – hiphop, bollywood-hiphop, broadway styles) did the drop-in classes with him-online side by side with Ms. Hetal. Few students of Ms. Hetal & Justin (taught by both during 2021) were selected to compete in his state (where he moved) as well for a national level competition in multiple genres. so, if they were to visit for competition in person in Dec 2021, Justin was assigned to give them competition preps and routines as per the plans-locally!

Either way by the end of Nov 30th, 2021 our students decided not to go for nationals to his state because of personal trips/travels during December 2021 that was overdue because of pandemic lockdowns. Justin is since then the part of G1 group for any freelance work that may be assigned for his specialities.

2nd line of staff was hired from 2022 by Ms. Hetal Joshi M, Hetal Nagaraj right after Ms. Taylor moved. Ms. Taylor did everything that was assigned to her in her committed hours. Ms. Taylor couldn’t handle G1 brands as it was out of her understanding and so we didn’t have any work. By then, Ms. Taylor had moved too :). Website design of g2dancefactory was Ms. Taylor work inspired from her own peers site and it was made by interns & grads of Hetal Joshi M – IT speciality under Ms. Hetal’s leadership. From 2022, all online classes were moved to in-person except for a few with ms. Hetal. For example : a few of her students bought new house in some other city and didn’t want to leave their batch mates and their trainings are almost done!

We will post all our videos too sometimes later! Because, why not :). It is worth seeing !! 😀. You all should see it!

Administrative Grads : Listed Here.

Biggest Fraud in the history of company Saumya Bhardwaj Kaur ( we give credits for everything because why not 🙂 : 30,000$ as of Feb 2023 + 8 months of total mess (it is April 2023 and we are still re-doing entire 8months of all the work assigned to her). That’s 16 months of delays in everything and for each project assinged to Ms. Saumya. Fraud damages in $$ still under calculation.

About this individual’s horrifying experience of parents(as per their texts) and company’s staff

Proceedings will occur once we are done accessing the total $ damages. Everyday something is surfacing.

Special thanks to Hetal Joshi M, Hetal Nagaraj’s personal & business relations, her knowledge to deal with crisis/risk management, laws and all the experience to deal with our mainstream clients and real world experience of her all the fields that everything is being handled at ease, one at a time, as it comes and without a fuss!

Secret To Winning Indian Dance Competitions For Dummies!!!

Linkgraceandgrooves group by hetal joshi 2 Comments

Winning 1st 3 prizes for solo(s)/group(s) in Indian Dance Competitions for over a decade in our genre of specialization for non-voting Indian Dance Competitions sounds like a big thing. It actually isn’t if you follow curriculum and keep it fun. For us, it has been a norm for Bharatanatyam, Indian Folk Dances & Bollywood/Some Tollywood and from 2013-Fusion!

HOW ? We love to share how we have been winning from over a decade in all the “stage dance competitions” and how our elites have come this far with such good paid commitments.

So, here’s our HOW TO Win Indian Dance Competitions for Dummies…!

Our Fool Proof guidelines and tips for those interested.

One of main attributes in stage competitions/for all genres are : Techniques. Techniques also means right amount of expressions required at certain techniques or mood used in the dance, coordination if group, comfort level of dancers with respect to dance, stage presence and personality, choreography, costumes, makeup and drama aspect. To do it right, you have to feel it and go through it which at Grace And Grooves is a norm! Because our owner herself comes from that background of competitions from over 2 decades! Read About Ms. Hetal Nagaraj.

To begin with, what are the types of dances ? 

Look !! Type of Competitions We Do !!!

Be it Bharatanatyam, Indian folk dances or Bollywood/Movie inspired dances; usually these dances are non-commercial dances. For bollywood or tollywood dance industry genre, there is level of dance and name of dance as well. As we all know that bollywood dances emerge from various forms or styles or certain drama attributes and thus will always have name.

However, there are certain category of dances within bollywood that do not have name because they do no follow a form or style and are purely for entertainment or let’s just say – NO RULES thus, these dances makes them commercial dances and usually gets disqualified in first round itself if you do it in-spite of rules given. Open category of competitions usually accepts these for example – most reality show competitions are based on this! That dance industry/world is entirely different than education studio. Education world competitions are to encourage the dancer to follow the rules, get finer in it and excel with feedbacks and let’s just say prepare them for higher grounds of possibilities within the form or with fusions later, if trained. Then, break the rules-it is completely dancers wish and instructor’s wish! None-the-less, our students have won these open category dance competitions with their actual dance forms itself or with fusion depending on what is allowed. Usually it will depend on judges, number of rounds in competitions and students training level in that genre. Everything goes in there…

For Bharatanatyam/Classical Dances & indian folk dances, the category is always non-commercial and standard as it is dance form. Even for entertainment, creativity is out of this world if used within the form. Most classical dances are actual dance formats/margams itself and then there are dance dramas. Not to confuse with dance musicals!

There is this entire category of exclusive Indian Folk Dances that is entirely different than the dances that are into Community stage dances/cultural dances/regional dances/bollywood inspired folk dances/ethnic dances/creative folk dances. Why ? Because of rubrics of judging and rules that go with it is entirely different for both these categories. You cannot possibly compare Folk Dances rubrics to Bollywood or with Bharatanatyam. With Bollywood having different types of techniques and some folk dances do not even have expressions as their main factor. Likewise, Bharatanatyam nritta if done will lack several attributes of nritya or natyam itself. So rubrics are often kept in % by the genre or type of entries.

Depending on competitions, they categorize fusion dances or they put them in open category. Concept of fusion dances is very simple! Some go by dance done on other music to be considered as fusion because their argument is that if dance is not danced on its actual/real music then it is not that dance. That is true but if u do not consider music at all and see the dance without music; what will you name it? That raises lot of fundamental questions. So these occurrences have been very rare in over 10 years of history that we have participated. We had 2 such competitions that we came across in entire history of 10+ years where they had that kind of rule! We got 1st place in both anyway. The only argument to this was you cannot name that dance as fusion unless 2 or more dance form or styles are used. Rest are very clear about categories & thus you’ll know it well.

Then comes the judges. First experience is always a question for you because these competitions do not tell you who the judges are and some do not specify the rubrics either but when you test waters, you’ll know! We had tested some waters — we decided not to waste time there as they were bias to one team based on their friendly relations! Then be it that way, you should call only them!

Some competitions are very transparent to names of judges and their experiences and that is fun! Last but not the least, whether or not there it is any voting. If voting then how many % is counted towards total judging points. What age group we are competing in one category/genre is also important factor for stage like dances!!

Then comes, prize money if there is one or something of that sort. Then it is motivating for students who are doing competitions regularly or something of that equivalent value. Nobody wants a 10$ trophy after spending money on hours of practices, competition fees, costumes and that just adds to a collection without a meaning!

For us at Grace And Grooves, it has been other way round. Our students have earned more, earned bigger opportunties than what they put money in! It is just boring for our students who have competed from over 10 years now to go for $10 trophies without the meaning to it. They rather spend money 50 to 60$ and do shows with us where they know they are going to get recognition, feathers to wear that they can own as skill-set, showcase as their own, perks, discounts and many more fun things to take home. A beautiful memory to take home. Budget is very important factor too!

Alas, comes the winning part after all that! Most difficult & unpredictable of all!

Just like that you do not get the wins in 1st 3 places & $$$ prizes. Here are some standard points that we have come across for rubrics in judgement & we would absolutely love to share with you:

1. Expressions 40% depending on genre. Some genres strongly requires that this element isn’t the part of dance because of restrictions on costumes, mask, type of song/pure technique competitions, or certain type of dramas. so % is then distributed.

2. Techniques 50% & % is distributed

3. Comfort level of dance & body movements-rest % divided, solo or group and as per difficulty level.

4. Coordination to music-rest % divided, if solo or group.

6. Costumes-rest % divided

7. Makeup / Dramatic effects of dance : % is divided by genre.

7. Props & usages

8. Choreography and Innovation in dance form without losing genre category—-some competitions have this highest! some have these 2 seperate.

10. Culture aspect depending on dance (if required depending on competitions since we have been to some of most difficult & strict competitions too!!!)

Sounds easy ? See you there..!!!!
