Level IV

Dancers develop excellence in their athletic movements, technical precision and have the endurance to complete longer, 20-30 minute pieces, and advanced dances that engage deeper abhinaya (expression) and substantial choreography thru Varnams, Shiva Tandavams and demanding Thillanas. At this level, dancers have the opportunity to perform outside of the school, at NDT company venues and outreach programs. Level 3 culminates with a full Margam, which is intended to demonstrate the dancer’s advancement in performance, including advancement in discipline and integrity expression and attitude. Advancement to Level 4 requires delivery of strength and accuracy.
