Arunodhaya was found by sisters Keetha and Sashikala (Sashi) Sellathurai in Toronto, Canada in 1998 with the aim of providing rigid training in the classical dance of Bharathanatyam.
Through dance, Arunodhaya aims to cultivate self esteem, grace and poise with a fine sense of rhythm and co-ordination. The main aim of Arunodhaya is to provide rigid training in "Bharathanatyam" practically and theoretically to students of all origins in Canada and to enable them to perform on stage.
Presently this academy teaches Bharathanatyam, Folk Dances and Contemporary Film Dances. Later on we hope to include other forms of Indian Classical Dances.The Academy offers lessons in Bharathanatyam from Introductory through Advanced levels.
We have qualified teaching staffs and a variety of classes for both Children and Adults.Over the past years, Arunodhaya has established itself into a very reputable school and as a performing company which produced and performed several individual and group choreographic works. Classes are suitable for all levels of ability. We offer classes in Canada & USA. We look forward to seeing you soon!
