Age is really not a barrier for Bharathanatyam. However, 5 to 6 years is the suitable age for beginning Bharatanatyam. At Learner Circle, we teach adults too, who want to learn a new hobby or return to their old passion.

Starting early can be very beneficial as the child will develop an interest in Bharatanatyam easily. If they are strong with the basics, it will be a smooth transition to the intermediate level. They can take part in performances in school and other cultural events with the knowledge that is gained. This is very beneficial for eliminating stage fear.
