Dance Schools

The Bhartiya Sangeet Sadan The school is located in the locality of East of Kailash. Founded by Shri V.D.Sharma in 1943, it aims to promote various dance forms of India especially the Kathak. The school strives to develop new forms of expression. As the Kathak is intimately related to Hindustani Music, the school is also working in the field of vocal and instrumental music etc. The school strives at: Providing instruction & guiding research in music & dance Organising public performances of leading artistes Encouraging creative artistes by sponsoring their programmes Organising theatrical performances, seminars, symposia, demonstration, lectures on music and dance and publishing journals, monographs and books on art. The school since its inception has been providing instruction in Indian classical dance and music under the guidance of expert and talented gurus. They also conduct special classes & workshops for overseas students. The school has presented renowned dancers and musicians in various concerts. It has even made special arrangements to cater to overseas students who are eager to learn Kathak. Ganesa Vidyalaya Saroja Vaidyanathan, a renowned classical Bharatanatyam dancer, established Ganesha Natyalaya in 1974. Beginning with a handful of students, the Natyalaya soon grew rapidly in strength and eminence and is reckoned as a premier institution in India. It is due to Guru Saroja's able tutelage that the students of the school receive sound grounding in the basics of theory and practice of Bharatanatyam along with Carnatic music thereby enabling them to appreciate and understand the harmony of music and dance. The Hon'ble Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma, then Vice President of India, inaugurated the school in April 1988. The school organises seminars and workshops on topics of interest to performing artistes and for purchase of musical instruments and for organizing public performances. The Natyalaya has its own mini-auditorium that has requisite audio-visual equipment including stage lights and sound system. The Government also sanctions grants to the Natyalaya for production of dance-dramas, ballets etc.				Techno Art An exhibition of Arunkumar's tech creations   Delhi Blue Pottery Studio One of the oldest pottery institutes in the country   Mughal Art Sharanu's beautiful marble carvings   Light my Fire Exhibition of matchboxes   The Memory Lane Ramkumar's paintings   Taj Mahotsav A tribute to the skills of craftsmen   Much Ado About Nautanki A musical play   Beyond the silence Prabha Shah's paintings   Suraj Kund Mela Showcasing the diverse culture of India   Tibet House Preserving the unique cultural heritage of Tibet Classical Dance   Kathak The traditional dance Schools   The Bharatiya Sangeet Sadan   Ganesa Vidyalaya   Kathak Kendra   Film & TV Technology Institute   Music and Dance Schools List Bands   The Indian Rock scene   Euphoria   Nirvana   Every Mother's Nightmare (EMN)   Parikrama Personalities   Raja and Radha Reddy Ketaki     Auditoria   Cultural Centres in New    Delhi   Theatre National School of    Drama
