From the Business:Aditha has immersed herself in the vibrant classical dance form of Bharatanatyam her entire life. At the tender age of seven, she was initiated into the world of Bharatanatyam. Her journey began as she stepped into the almost otherworldly environment preserved in Kalakshithi - a haven of classical Indian dance in Bengaluru. Here, under the tutelage of an award winning Prof. M.R. Krishnamurthy, Aditha tirelessly persevered for over fifteen years to master the nuances of this great art form. In the course of this tireless pursuit of artistic excellence, she went on to achieve her Vidwath from Karnataka State Board with distinction. Read more

From the Business:Nrityarpana School of Performing Arts offers Indian classical performing arts, yoga, and more. NrityArpana trains students in the technique of Bharathnatyam towards rangapravesh/arangetram and the appreciation of the arts. Art is a powerful vehicle of change. This is more so for the visual performing arts. Founded in 2004, Nrityarpana School of Performing Arts, a non-profit organization was envisioned as a tool that offered training in the classical art form of dance and created a platform to present innovative, thought provoking powerful productions that both entertain and educate the participants and the audience. The Indian community is a fairly young immigrant community in the USA. With second generation Indian Americans at schools, colleges and the work force, the role of the artist is changing from a preserver to a builder of communities. Anupa Mirle is involved in this as a founder of her arts organization, NrityArpana School of Performing Arts, and as a co-founding member of the Indian Sister City of Mysore. This effort was started a few years ago and came to fruition during the summer of 2012 with a gala for the Indian Ambassordor to the United States, her Excellency Nirupama Rao. Anupama Rao Mirle, known as Anupa, is a member of the International Dance Council (a UNESCO organization). She was invited to the 2005 Ohio Dance Choreographers' Showcase. Hailed as a visionary choreographer, Anupa has a candid ability to blend different media and art forms into classical dance crating breakthrough idioms in choreography. Achieving Masters of Science and MBA training, her production themes reflect her comfort portraying difficult issues like nuclear armament, corporate ethics, racial issues, social issuers and cross cultural diversity.Read more
