Namaste!

Welcome to Kalaikoil’s Spring Session 2024

Kalaikoil provides slow and meticulous training in Hindu Vedic chanting, Puja Vidhi and Bharatanatyam since 1995 at our studios in Dublin and Livermore, CA USA.  Bharatanatyam curriculum is geared to all children Ages 3-18yrs. Hindu classes taught by Pandit Ravichandran are for students that completed Upanayanam.

In addition to training, students imbibe commitment, humility, confidence, respect and attention-to-detail. All skills honed at an early age may benefit future career choices. Dedicated instructors provide an individual and focused learning experience that is artistic and educational. When ready, students participate in temple, local competitions, community performances and solo house concert. Nine Bharatanatyam students completed an Alagappa certification, solo stage Arangetram and/or pursued this dance art tradition after training. Please visit our upcoming Events page to learn more. It is best to join us at our Vijayadasami traditional enrollment class and puja conducted by Pandit Ravichandran. If you are interested to learn more, please click  Email .

  • Classes are educational, fun, and so effective at training students in this traditional, ancient South Indian art form. My daughter has learned so much grace and poise studying Bharatanatyam with Swetha, and we are so grateful for her deep knowledge and expertise in dance. Plus, there are many performance opportunities, which is great!! Glad to see Swetha keep these parts of our culture thriving with the new generation and get them excited to learn about Indian arts and culture.

  • This is a longgggg overdue review. My older daughter started going here when she was 4.5 years old. Now she is 13 years. She loves it there. She started there as a shy, young girl. Early on, she didn't show that much grace in her steps as the other kids in her group. Swetha, her guru told us right away, that expressions were her forte, the grace in her steps will come with practice, as she grows older and becomes more disciplined. Both are important parts of dance.
