About Akshi
I am Vidushi Dr. Akshi Shetty, originally from Karnataka, India, currently residing in the London, UK. My journey in Bharathanatyam began in childhood, nurtured by a family dedicated to the art and service of Lord Nataraja. With over 20 years of experience in Bharathanatyam, I have cultivated a deep understanding and passion for this classical dance form, which I am eager to share with enthusiastic learners. Currently pursuing my final year of MA in Bharathanatyam, I hold a diploma in Nattuvangam and am a state rank holder in the Vidwat exam. I have also served as an examiner for Junior, Senior, and Vidwat examinations conducted by the Karnataka state government for 6 years. I moved to the UK to pursue higher studies in MBA Healthcare Management, having completed my undergraduate degree in Bachelors of Naturopathy & Yogic Sciences. With a year of experience in practising medicine, I bring a holistic approach to my teaching, integrating physical and mental well-being into my classes. I believe in sharing and preserving our rich Indian culture through Bharathanatyam. With a commitment to professionalism and a deep love for this classical art, I am here to guide and inspire you on your dance journey. Join me in experiencing the grace, discipline, and spiritual essence of Bharathanatyam.

My teaching approach combines personalised one-on-one classes with a balanced emphasis on both theory and practical aspects of Bharathanatyam. Each session is tailored to the student's individual needs and progression, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the art form. My methodology focuses on the intricate techniques of Bharathanatyam, including Adavus, Mudras, Abhinaya, and Nritta, while also delving into the theoretical foundations such as the history, literature, and musical aspects of the dance. Additionally, my classes include the nuances of Nattuvangam, enhancing the overall learning experience. A typical lesson lasts between 1 to 2 hours per day. This duration is ideal for providing ample time to practise and perfect the dance techniques while also covering the necessary theoretical knowledge without overwhelming the student. I come from a family that owns the prestigious Vishwakalaniketana Institute of Art & Culture in Karnataka, India, where I have been deeply immersed in the world of Bharathanatyam. I have the honour of being a state rank holder in the Vidwat exam and have completed a diploma in Nattuvangam. Currently, I am in the final year of my MA in Bharathanatyam. Additionally, I have served as an examiner for Junior, Senior, and Vidwat examinations conducted by the Karnataka state government for 6 years, providing me with a broad perspective on the standards and expectations at various levels. My lessons are designed for students of all levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners. I also specialise in preparing students for all levels of examinations, ensuring they meet the required standards with confidence. My classes are open to all age groups, welcoming anyone with a passion for learning Bharathanatyam.
