Our Mission

At Padma Paadam School of Performing Arts, our mission is to preserve and promote the rich heritage of Bharatanatyam, a classical Indian dance form, while fostering artistic excellence and cultural awareness. We are dedicated to providing comprehensive education in Bharatanatyam that encompasses both theoretical and practical training. Our holistic approach ensures that students not only master the intricate movements but also develop a deep understanding of the history, culture, and stories embedded in this ancient art.

In addition to our core dance curriculum, we offer a range of enriching experiences. We conduct regular workshops to expose our students to diverse aspects of dance, including choreography, music, and stagecraft. We believe in the synergy of body and mind, and to that end, we provide complimentary yoga classes to enhance physical fitness, flexibility, and mental well-being. Furthermore, our shloka classes help students connect with the spiritual and linguistic roots of the art form.

Through inclusive and authentic education, we aim to enrich our community and contribute to the preservation of our cultural heritage. Our goal is to inspire a lifelong love for Bharatanatyam and other performing art forms, nurture artistic expression, and instill a deep appreciation for the traditions and stories conveyed through the art. We invite all, regardless of age or background, to join us in this journey of artistic exploration and cultural celebration.

At Padma Paadam School of Performing Arts, our vision is to be a beacon of cultural enrichment, fostering a profound connection to Indian heritage and traditions through the art forms of Bharathanatyam, yoga, classical music, shloka classes, art and painting classes and more. Our commitment extends beyond dance instruction, as we aim to introduce children to the richness of Indian culture, traditions, and history.
