At 14 years old, Majithia said it was difficult to become a teacher. “You want to laugh or do something else, but you have to make sure you’re professional and focused for the students,” Majithia said. Rao said her mother helped Majithia preside over the class at the time. “My mom took pity on her. She was like, ‘How can a 14-year-old actually take control of these 10-yearold kids’,” Rao said about her mother. “She was the disciplinarian for us.” Majithia said learning the form requires years of practice. Someone learning must go through levels before the graduation dance is allowed. This can take years. Majithia assured that Bharatanatyam is not something a person can pick up on a whim. “It’s one that takes a lot of dedication. Most of my students have been training for over five years,” Majithia said. “It’s not one of those dance forms where you can go in for a summer and come out and perform it. That’s just something that doesn’t happen.” Majithia and Rao said very few dancers stick with Bharatanatyam. Out of a class of 10 students, Majithia said only one or two complete the graduation dance.

Now, both Majithia and Rao are in college and still pursuing the dance form. Majithia, who still teaches while in medical school, said she sees dancing as a good release from her studies, Rao found a community of dancers to continue working with while she attends school in Pittsburgh. Majithia and Rao are now in their 10th year working together. They said their continued love of the dance is present in their performances. Those unfamiliar to Bharatanatyam are encouraged to attend the performance of “Natya Svaruup” on July 31 at 7 p.m. “It can be difficult because they are not going to understand the languages,” Majithia said. “But even if they don’t understand the language, they will be receptive to the movements between the group and the choreography of the dance. There is always something they can take from it.”
