Like mentioned on website, some programs are never stand alone programs.

One of those is mixed martial arts or kalaripayattu, others are couple classes, private function packages wherein they come up with their own song to dance on and take seperate classes too, and our adults groups classes are mostly our own parents. Couples are private packages.

Those types are by packages, progressive workshops by each level, and if those are not private groups then through Grace And Grooves Corp By Hetal Nagaraj only, the students of kalari or mixed martial arts are required to take one other genre such as bharatanatyam, bollywood/cinema, drama/stagecraft, folk or simply hiphop.

The grads you all see is of these programs as well or are our own parents for their own functions who formed their own groups.

The only one we have is mommy and me program as a mother daughter class. It is one of my most successful program too!

Because it is only me, i am cautious to high intensity genres, esp the ones that are high intensity from day 1.

I love my kalari combo students. My kalari students too made me proud. I am so happy to see their dances. First ones unbeatable and got international awards in various competitions too in entire USA, Canada, London by 2019 itself.

I showcased Aahana, Samarth Setty for my own jhansi & warrier/combat series dances in kalaripayattu and contemporary subjects in 2020 just before lockdown for various competitions and I had teen contemporary fusion series on subjects of mental health which i had just completed for the show (that was cancelled for Revanta Sarabhai‘s show).

Aahana won that one in several local, regional and inter state competitions as well – online.

My 8 other shows and productions were cancelled because of entire year of lockdown.

2020 during lockdown, the teams from Darpana Academy of Performing Arts such as Revanta Sarabhai, Manojbhai & few other artists from mumbai (my own friends from other institutes in industry) could not come (to DFW or anywhere) to my programs and activities or their own USA tour and so I initiated progressive workshops.

Technically you can say, all my institutes of my own trainings and my own teachers/gurus were lined up that year, every other month for some or other activity.

This was only because i had my own students in certain levels, and all students had nothing to do anyway because of lockdown and so i announced classes with Manojbhai via my own Dhamaal Events USA By Hetal Nagaraj; and had them enrolled for next level in their kalari program.

Those were exclusive my own students and under my own directives, manojbhai took their classes as a progression to next level and only i knew what was next on their curriculam. They took about 10+2 hours of workshop with manojbhai. 2 hours of practice class.

Revanta Sarabhai refused to take online activities.

Since all of them are my own students from scratch from day 1, in 2019-2020-2021, I had Samarth Setty and Aahana in their internship years of institutional practicals which led to their internships in my other junior kalari batches post pandemic 40 hour workshops on Kalari & Combo Classes.

All graduated in 2021-2022-2023 with several awards at certain levels and that makes Aahana and Samarth Setty the only ones who graduated to high levels/advance (jumps, combat, demonstrations).

A few of my students travelled to India (often from 2016) as well during their holidays prior and post pandemic and performed there as well which brought me other awards and other PR firms from India contacted me for news .

that’s when media knew about me!

I have chau level 2 graduates too, exclusively my own before lockdown 2020 itself. That’s how I was able to submit for their competitions as i had their videos of performances or rehearsals ready. That’s how post pandemic in 2021, i had not 1 but 8 productions in 1 day from morning 10am to night 8pm and parallel productions outdoors.

The only pending activity for my 2019 students was their costume shoot (during lockdown) and so that was to be done. So i personally arranged their productions outdoors in batch of 4-6 for Rang Indian Folk Dance And Theater Productions, Anantha Classical Dance & Theater Production Series, Sarvaa Cinema Dance And Theater Production Series.

There was a limitation of 4-6 in 6 feet distance

Mixed martial arts and kalari was thus made a compulsory inclusion in combo classes from 2014 itself as my “shiva tandava series” where in several girls too attended the program from frisco, plano and irving. Aahana was in that batch as well and was in first batch of Grace Creations Fusion Company By Hetal Nagaraj. At that time, Aahana was elementary ballet dancer at age of 4years.

Grace Creations Fusion Company By Hetal Nagaraj attracted lot of such desi parents whose kids were into tap, jazz, ballet and hiphop!

2016 Dance of Gods was Aahana‘s first inhouse production recital program with me. Although her group performances dates back to 2013-2014 in temples, various other cultural organizations and Indianite for her batch in Frisco FM423/Stonebrair, exclusively with me. It was first for several 2nd line of Elites as well.

#YES

My Shiva Tandava series had ended in 2019 itself with creatives of “Bho Shamboo” in Anantha Classical Dance & Theater Production Series.

My own son was getting bored of girly type dances and stereo type of bharatnatyam expressions that are too girly so this brought him fun. So i included it and boys had so much fun.

They enjoyed that more than just basic bollywood.

By then, classes of Mirchi Dance Academy By Hetal Nagaraj, Nruthyakala Folk Dance Academy By Hetal Nagaraj, and Kalasri Institute Of Indian Classical Dances By Hetal Nagaraj were stable and successful 1st line of Elites (exclusively under me) as well just under my name prior to my acquisition.

My son is one of them in that 2014 batch. Then i saw that there is this whole category of boys and girls who do not like one of those basic bollywood as much as they find it too girl types.

That’s how i attracted lots of bollywood students who wanted to do these innovative by technique dances . As matter of fact, hook up step is not bollywood but people do it as part of bollywood. Simple example! #YES

You can see my first batch of kalari introduction students as young as 4 to 8 years in my own solo production wherein my exclusive students performed 2016 “Dance of Gods – Adi Shakti Series” with tiny swords. It was my solo fundraisers and ofcourse, i had invited solo artist as i usually do to perform and i had booths as it was a fundraiser for CRY America Inc. and shopping spree event.

In that fundraiser of 2016, Nirja Setty, Ashna Pethe became Elites along with Mansi, Deepthi, Sindhu and few others for Bollywood as well other than hiphop, mixed martial arts, folk and modeling that they pursued throughout the years until 2024. #YES

I had sponsors too of various level and my first official fashion show under company name, for a local and international bridal boutique. I also had raffles and several IT course sponsors other than my own, that year, as my own launch of Sarva Information Systems and its affiliates training programs. #YES

2014 batch was combo of mixed martial arts (kalari as one of them) and Bollywood, pic as below.

It was after that & around that time that hiphop was introduced in combo classes. Boys then moved to hiphop and some to kalari. Some continued in Bollywood.

Aayan, Audrey line of Pre.Elites and all were much much later in 2018-2019 at age of 4-5 years at Lewisville, Texas for Year Round Activities in Grace And Grooves Corp By Hetal Nagaraj and that includes all summer workshops as well because their parents are full time working parents so not much travels.

Among the only ones as in Elites who never took break of 1 season for anything. Just basic holidays that we announce. Thus, completed their grads in their respective programs(except Bharatanatyam) before age of 12!

It surprised me too, that they completed that early but then i looked at their attendence! Not one class missed and not one workshop ever missed, none!

You can see them as well in all my promos just as you can see Nirja Setty, Samarth Setty, Setty Siblings, Aahana, Ashna Pethe and several others. Some of my workshops in summer are thrice a week and 4 times a week min 3-4hours as well. They have attended all of those. #thatshowitsdone

My all productions are my own . As a part of invitees, i often call 1 artist to perform – usually the one that’s new in city.

And then, whoever is new choreographer, if any or one of my own grads who can take some lessons (in that year) is often called to perform something in their speciality as introduction to my students so that if they were to take classes, parents would know them.

I also have Texas All Star Talents By Hetal Nagaraj invitees that i call during my recitals and productions depends on speciality or program! These individuals usually have to pay just like any other shows.

I also call potentially interested candidates of Reachh Mediaa Since 2013 By Hetal Nagaraj to showcase their trained specialities to categorize them in levels of Pre.Elites and Elites for submissions.

Check blog entry – Dance of Gods, Adi Shakti. It has more details. Most Elites start very early in life with me most at age of 4 or 5. Some accelerate faster too such as Ashna Pethe as they come to multiple locations as and when they are free.

That’s how they become Elites that early as young as 10, 12, 13 in multiple genres, level by level and then the rest of years are bonus years of gigs and fun activities such as commercials and modeling and all the other paths towards education usage since i run non dance programs too for Texas All Star Talents By Hetal Nagaraj.

Define part time, low key. this part time and this low key.

71. Reels were proposed by Mansi during very first reality competition (as a company) in 2015 -2016 – as we had in-person reality competition submission that required online reel hashtags as contestant number and youtube links.
    • And we did those as well, while some were fresh show performances.
    • but then back then, we did not have students who could come for more than 1-2 hour and students were too naive to showcase much.
    • Mothers instead decided to stick to productions, recitals and shows as it was discussed and voted in parents so that they can use it for educational purposes.
    • reels cannot be used and thus was problem!
    • So the plan was on hold for reels and Ms. Hetal will think of better ways to do that.

80. During g2, company had grown to more than 50+ gears/gadgets for some or other activities and several spouses were ready to collaborate for several services within g2 and under Ms. Hetal directly.
    • So Ms. Hetal asked Marchawn to create company’s automated stock register(online system) and gear log sheet, along with re-organization of commercial database so that our crews can use company’s gears and gadgets (without followup with eachother )or via direct permission based on calendar, as easy access to taking gigs directly for company.
    • G2 was that passive for Ms. Hetal.
81. Renewal sheets and such other logs were first made by Ms. Taylor under Ms. hetal’s directives to keep track of renewals and all the subscriptions as G2 was Ms. Hetal’s passive and Ms. Taylor was to run it. Ms. Taylor was hired by Ms. Hetal. Check this.
82. Fundraisers, Competitions, News, PR are own school, college life that Ms. Hetal continued till date.
83. Company logins within laptops were made by Nagaraj, Ms. Hetal’s husband – on an idea by Mansi as Mansi would use main desktop for company’s activities. This was because parents too used that desktop/laptop for various signups and it was creating confusions with Mansi’s work being deleted by some or other parent accidently as most folder names would be similar for submissions.
    • Since we did not have that many, at that time, Ms. Hetal did not feel the need of it though.
84. G2 website first content was made by Ms. Taylor which was then redirected by Ms. Hetal. Site was published and made by Ms. Prushti.

88. G2 logo as in multiple options that may match the brand was made by Ms. Taylor after approvals from Ms Hetal and that includes bunch of names for G2.
89. Grace And Grooves name was sudden announcement in 2010-2011 (out of blue) when suddenly Ms. Hetal was asked about company details and Ms. Hetal did not know what to say. The name was never planned either.
    • Company was registered right after because they needed Ein number for the next round as it was heading to publication and such other monetary gains.
    • It was other way round.
90. Dhamaal Events USA was Ms. hetal own collab that she bought the whole share of.
    • ALL artists below this program were/are offered company’s aka Ms. Hetal’s own students and advertisements as per contracts based on either booking fees or %.
    • It was always the other way round. Ms. Hetal never advertises anybody for anything.
91. Ms. Hetal own bio was not complete until 2018. It was when Jinal took over the content management under the directives of Ms. Hetal and Ms. Hetal got it nicely penned everything as Ms. Hetal needed it for PR submission wherein specific details were required.

    • Until then, Ms. Hetal bio was basic without years and without teachers’ name too 🙂 and without much details !
92. Private Packages were Ms. Hetal own ideas because we could not combine external temporary students like that in existing annual year batches that do productions and recitals.
93. It was Ms. Deepthi that was first offered administrative (non parent) 40 hour work visa because of her stable delivery of work assigned which added value to database of company’s Texas All Star Program.
    • The one who initiated administrative non dance programs as she was on her way to family and could not commit much!
    • Prior to that, Ms. Hetal had Ms. Swati but Ms. Swati was 2-3 days, a week for 4 hours only (and was mostly in back office under parents’ program).
94. In 2021, Company went through induced fraud by property management company as well. Grace And Grooves and ms. Hetal lost millions of $ of commercial projects for which ms. hetal had worked for months to get them.
    • G2 was delayed because of property management company’s negligence on permits of building itself (not own suite permits).
    • There was no accountability by the company.
    • None of which was communicated. External biggest fraud to company.
95. 2022 – Highest and biggest in person fraud to company, monetary theft, NJHS project delays, jammed systems and online infrastructure deliberately, refused to follow company work & refused to take compliance trainings, pissed off clients, highest refunds, mad customers, wasted everybody’s time and efforts, failed projects that Ms. Hetal had to redo all the projects just to keep the funds intact, tried to claim to do marchawn’s and taylor work and got caught, created confusions and mess, blunders;turned out she deliberately did that. – S****** K****.
96. 2022 – Somebody tried to use our online systems and steal money via zelle and Ms. hetal saved company through recorded conversations. Company’s policies saved company for any obligations. This led to parents portal freeze & online payment freeze for a month.
    • Somehow the above fraud individual S***** knew about Ms. Hetal’s attedance to 972 979 2559.
97. Company runs on Ms. Hetal exclusively and if today company exists is because of Ms. Hetal. Because S***** would have ruined Elites and their families. Ms. Hetal’s transparency and IT security saved everybody!
98. By 2024 September, Company crossed 1 petabyte and few other terabytes extending reaches to higher technological advances in icloud, external storage systems and parental security.
    • Ms. Hetal had to clear all the mess caused by fraud in company which took more than 2 years.
    • First 4-5 months went by just to trace all the activities, fees, money transactions and trace the whereabouts of all mess that was deliberately done (one account is not recovered till date).
    • From 2024-2025 – right after the systems were up and running, in 2025, Ms. Hetal had to upgrade it all with Ai automations reinforcing security so that those issues do not occur.
99. 2024, Despite all this mess, Hetal’s company Grace and Grooves stands tall with an on-paper valuation of $50 million;earned through its unmatched transparency and innovative model that has opened doors like none before. It’s not just a business; it’s a movement redefining industry norms.
    • It is providing lifeline and earnings to several aspiring artists as well as those who are willing to learn!
    • This evaluations does not include the latest system upgrade & all the other updates.
100. More Later!

Wondering if Ms. Hetal does not welcome ideas. Oh you have no idea how nicely Ms. Hetal welcomes it!

Dare to question Ms. Hetal’s leadership as well ?

By the time you know, there is whole infrastructure on it. Being an independent company, sometimes it takes time and sometimes patience because parents approvals are needed.

Every show features elites or program graduates of Ms. Hetal’s own specialities on Hetal Joshi M – USA/America, so we would be surprised if anyone else is added as a contributor or for anything.

Ms. Hetal can also highlight those who proposed completely new ideas that never existed in entire initiatives of any program because “seperately doing that” would be exhaustive.

It worked well too as they had patience and common sense to wait until the right time and scenario. To value time for students who come once a week, 1-2hours only is a skill. Direction is always better than speed.

Dare to say that Ms. Hetal competes with anybody ? Ms. Hetal competes with herself. Ms. Hetal breaks her own records.

No Elite or Graduate of Hetal Nagaraj will ever be jealous of anybody in million years. We as teams dare you all on that.

All or Kids above are in Top universities or have just graduated in their masters programs as well. Mental well being of every kid below Hetal Nagaraj is excellent as they learn to value time and their efforts of every hour. They learn life skills that prepares them well in life.

Diversity at its best, nominated several times.

Dare to say anybody else did anything ?

What we do at Reachh Mediaa (July 8, 2025) By Hetal Nagaraj

Source – https://www.facebook.com/share/p/16vkoRF1Lg/

Reachh Mediaa Since 2013 By Hetal Nagaraj is not a casting company.

It is PR, Portfolio Shoots, Preps before the PR packages actually begins, Audition Preps and all the check points, Submissions, PR Marketing, Eligibility, Resume, Acting, Model and PR Development and Trainings.

Hetal Joshi M – USA/America, Hetal Nagaraj, Hetal Nagaraj Dance-International sits with your details to see what matches where to get the work and how to get it through. It takes roughly 4 hour just to submit one candidate.

An average, she sits for 4 hours per month per candiate just to get this top of head so that Ms. Hetal can utilize your skills. It is skill to do that. It’s learned through practical internships just as Ms. Hetal learned through own internships. #YES

Casting companies are entire different story and thats where auditions and all those activities begins. Since we train students for all activities, we have to do this work. It ensures success in auditions and awards or news publications. Keeps it stress free too.

Occasionally, Ms Hetal Nagaraj also takes whole production for the whole company itself and thats usually relevant to our specialities at Grace And Grooves Corp By Hetal Nagaraj.

We usually name them commercial mainstream stage productions;category remains as is Educational Entertainment. Most or All of these can be used in Education as well! It depends on paths candidates/parents choose for themselves.

Now that we have Grace & Grooves by Hetal Nagaraj International, we may offer “casting company services”. These can be of “any” category. We need to get few details before we offer those because of industry laws. Ms. Hetal is working on it.

People mistake this for a casting company. We are not casting company . In future, it is on list because of Grace & Grooves by Hetal Nagaraj International.

This program is optional and some Pre.Elites, Elites earn some perks from it, if they choose to. It is individual.
