Vanakam! My name is Lithikhaa Mageswaran and I have been learning, practicing, and performing Bharathanatyam since I was four. I completed my Bharathanatyam Arangetram at the Madras Music Academy Chennai, India on June 24, 2018. Bharathanatyam has become such an integrative and important part of my life and has shaped me into the person I am today. My mission at Abhiraami Arts Academy is to inspire and educate the next generation of Bharatanatyam dancers in my community. There is such an importance in preserving our culture and heritage, and I hope I can play a little part in making that a reality in today's world.
