Ranjini Teacher is awesome. She connects to kids so easily and makes dance so much fun. Boys are really having ton of fun in her dance class. Love the dance steps that she choses and the songs are amazing. Aerovaganza is the best part.
Ms.Ranjani is a wonderful dance teacher. My daughter learnt many forms of dances here and the variety is not something that any other dance school can offer. The kids learn to respect all different dance types and also understand the nuances of each type. Ms.R herself teaches all dances and she treats kids as her own. The kids love her and enjoy her classes.
Love Aerodance. Ranjani is an amazing choreographer and has an eye for talent. This is a unique place where you or your kid will learn the difference folk forms of dance with semi-classical component. Would recommend it to anyone who wants to learn dance and get better at it! Also the annual event, Aerovaganza is AMAZING!! If you are interested in Indian dance and dance shows, it's a must see! So much variety of folk, Bollywood and semi-classical. Every year they try to partner with some other form of school like hip-hop, jazz, etc and give an out of the world performance!
Very talented Ranjani runs this place. She is very committed and looks after every aspect of classes and events like AeroVeganza. This is super demanding and I am amazed how she manages everything so well. My daughter and wife both are her active students for last many years.
My daughter has been with Ms Ranjani ever since kindergarten and now she’s a high school student. Ms Ranjani has taught various styles of dance like classical, Punjabi, Garba, Raas, Yakshagana, Bollywood and many more. Ms Ranjani teaches dance with a lot of passion and perfection to get the best out of the student. The annual recital show ‘Aerovaganza’ says it all. When we shared the dance videos to our grandparents, family and friends this year, they were simply amazed by the graceful dance moves, creative choreography and finally on how well the show was executed. We are very thankful to Ms. Ranjani for nurturing and developing student’s passion to the ultimate level.
