With performance opportunities multiplying, a career in dance could prove very satisfying for classical dance aficionados, because it has also transformed into a financially rewarding option. India boasts dance traditions stretching back five millennia. Among the most well-known classical dance forms are Bharatnatyam of Tamil Nadu; Odissi (Odisha); Kathakali and Mohini Attam (Kerala); Kuchipudi (Andhra Pradesh); Kathak (Lucknow and Jaipur) and Manipuri (Manipur).
Among the leading classical dance teaching institutions are : Natya Institute of Kathak and Choreography, Bangalore; Nalanda Nritya Kala Mahavidyalaya, Mumbai; J. G. College of Performing Arts, Allahabad; Rukmini Devi College of Fine Arts at Kalakshetra Foundation, Chennai; University of Madras; Kalamandalam, deemed university for art and culture, Thrissur; College of Indian Music, Dance and Dramatics, MS University, Baroda.
The services of performers and choreographers are much in demand and once they acquire name and fame, financial rewards are huge. With performing artists’ careers being short, most of them also teach part-time which qualifies them to become full-time teachers after retirement from the stage.
