My daughter has been training at Arpana for a year now, and the transformation is incredible. Jitha Raj Ma'am’s teaching is exceptional—blending discipline with compassion. The school’s commitment to cultural heritage, confidence-building, and stage presence is exactly what we were seeking. I truly recommend it to anyone looking for a strong foundation in Bharatanatyam.
I’ve had many discussions with the team at Arpana School of Arts over the past year regarding my daughter’s training. What stands out most is their structured approach and the passion for upholding classical values. Jitha Raj Ma'am’s dedication and guidance have made a remarkable difference in my child’s confidence and artistry.
Arpana is not just a dance school—it’s a cultural experience. The personalized attention and structured curriculum have helped my daughter blossom into a confident performer. With Jitha Raj Ma’am leading with such clarity and care, I feel reassured we made the right choice.
We feel truly privileged that our child is receiving classical dance training at Arpana School of Arts, Coventry. Under the dedicated guidance of Jitha Aravind, she has been blessed with a strong and inspiring foundation in this art form. We are deeply grateful for such a nurturing and disciplined environment that has set the perfect beginning for her classical journey.
