I was all of three when I started training in Kuchipudi dance form under the expert guidance of Guru Padmasri Dr. Sobha Naidu garu. I've been an integral part of academy's dance entourage and assisted Sobha Naidu garu in various workshops across the globe. I finished my arangetram under her guidance in 2015. I've also been a disciple of Guru Kalaratna Vempati Ravi Shankar garu and have learnt vempati style of Kuchipudi. Vempati sir helped me to gain knowledge about rhythmic compositions and rendering of jathis. I am currently pursuing MPA Kuchipudi in Hyderad central university under some of the well known kuchipudi dancers. I wanted to pursue my masters in Kuchipudi to understand and relate the theory to present day art form.

Sobha Naidu garu was known for her abhinaya and Vempati Ravi Shankar garu for his beautiful and tricky rhythmic compositions. Having been trained under them I understand the slightest of details and strive to deliver the same to my students.
