Performing and Fine Arts
Dance
Dance is more than the exploring of different ways to make a shape or learning a series of steps to music; it is a way of moving that uses the body as an instrument of expression and communication. Through dance students learn teamwork, focus, and improvisational skills. Dance awakens new perceptions in children, which help them learn and think in new ways. Henceforth, we provide exclusive training to the students in Indian and Western dance. Dance is taught to the students across all grades by an experienced and erudite mentor. Students are made conversant with manifold dance forms such as Odissi, Kathak, Bharatanatyam, folk, etc. and Western dance forms like Jazz, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Free Style, Rhythmic gymnastics and so much more!

Theatre
Today, an increasing number of communities are realizing how important theatre is to children’s development. Performing arts teach children how to think creatively through imagination. Creative thinking skills are critical in the world of business leaders, where the ability to create solutions to problems is a necessary and valued asset. Through theatre, audiences are immersed in stories about characters from every background imaginable. Live shows teach children how to appreciate people of all kinds and how to respect other points of view. Additionally, characters from historic time periods give viewers a chance to learn about events and people from the past. Not only is it important to learn about different kinds of people and aspects of life, but these shows also give a glimpse into other people’s lives. Theatre allows you to step into someone else’s shoes and see life from their point of view. This teaches young people lessons of empathy and cultural relativity. Theatre exposes young people to new vocabulary and ways of communicating. Through the arts of dance, acting, and music, children learn how to communicate in a variety of unique ways. Children need imagination to grow, create, think, and play. Theatre is the single most valuable place where kids can explore the endless possibilities of their imaginations and what they can do. We believe that without theatre, children not only miss out on an amazing artistic experience, but they lose the chance to experience an endless amount of learning opportunities. With exposure that not only raises school performance, but also encourages creativity, culture, communication, patience, morals, and imagination, an afternoon at the theatre is something that cannot be overlooked. To encourage all of this and more we are constantly encouraging our students to partake in theatricals, we encourage learning through action which is why you’ll often find our students performing new lessons in the school amphitheater for lessons and on the stage for special assemblies.
