I have been training under the guidance of Anita Ma'am, and I truly admire the positive transformation I have experienced under her mentorship. Each one of her students receives individual attention, ensuring that every aspect of Bharatanatyam — from warm-up exercises and adavus to abhinaya and theory — is thoroughly covered with discipline and care. Her love for dance, passion for teaching, and the strength of a true guru are clearly reflected in her eyes. I am grateful to have embarked on my Bharatanatyam journey under her guidance.

An exceptional Bharatanatyam academy! Anita ma’am gives individual attention to every student and ensures a deep understanding of both technique and the rich history behind the art form. A truly holistic and inspiring place to learn, especially for people coming back to learning the artform after a gap of many years!

My daughter Shruti joined class almost 2 years back. It’s a great experience and privilege to learn Bharatnatyam under the guru Anita mam. She is a very humble person. She always encourage and support her students to be a great performer, and also takes lot of efforts to make it happen. Alkashyarupam program is one of the best example of her efforts, where Anita Mam have beautifully choreographed and executed the programme by giving equal opportunity to each and every student to perform on stage.

For passionate and keen to learn dancers this is the place to be. We found a great Guru in Anita Neve Ma'am, who trains kids understanding their individual potential. Makes Classical dance learning fun and helps to imbibe the right values and discipline in her students. The academy is associated with renowned institutes, who conduct exams and thus the learning is complete holistically.

I have been training under Smt. Anita Neve for over 16 years now and I consider her as my Guru for life. She has not only shaped me as a dancer, but also as a person. Taught me to take things positively in life, and believe in myself. This made me complete my entire course and also conduct my Arangetram. Other than that, I am grateful to her to bless me with opportunities to perform at prestigious events, this made me crush my stage anxiety at a very young age of life. I am also fortunate enough to be a part of Nritya Pooja Academy, who is the first to bring Bharatnatyam, a traditional dance form of India, to the streets of India to spread awareness on various social issues such a “Save Water, Importance of Voting, Women Empowerment and many more.” She plays a significant role in my life and I am forever grateful.❤️

highly reccommend. mrs anitha maam is not only a guru she is so inspirational, pulls us out of low each day we go to her classes. she has a very sweet voice and very expressive eyes, corrects us in each stage. being a new student, i have seen her put her soul during her existing students exams the efforts she puts on is tremondous and ensures that each one of them perform to perfection. ours being elders batch she makes course corrections and teach us very technically and logically. its a pleasure to attend her classes and we eagerly wait for the same.
