SSLC
The School of Performing Arts offers vocational Diploma Programmes in Dance, Music, and Indology. Our dance curriculum encompasses Bharatanatyam, Kuchipudi, Mohiniyattam, Kathak, Yakshagana, Filmmaking, Tabla, Carnatic, and Hindustani music. Students delve into both the theoretical and practical dimensions of their chosen art form, a crucial balance in today's artistic landscape.
We believe that a deep theoretical foundation is essential for artists to not only master their craft but also to articulate its nuances effectively. This knowledge empowers them to engage with audiences on social media and become inspiring mentors for future generations. Through our Diploma programs, we aim to cultivate passionate educators and confident performers.
