Practice is the key that unlocks our potential.

 After every performance, the question I’m asked most is: "What does your daily practice routine look like?"
​I’ve been taught that the key to mastery lies in the basics. That’s why my daily practice always revolves around the Adavus—they are the foundation for everything I do on stage.

​Finding the Spark Together

​Finding the guidance of an Acharya for our daily practice is a rare gift today. Deprived of that energy, the solitary repetition of Adavus can easily lose its spark and become monotonous.


​The Adavu Drill Room brings dancers together in a collaborative online space, offering a supportive community dedicated to daily Adavu practice and mastery. After all, it is always easier to practice when others are sweating it out (even on a screen!).To ensure that every dancer can find their rhythm and community, this platform is completely free.

​What to Expect

​ It’s one hour of shared energy as we practice our Adavus and challenge ourselves with different rhythm permutations.

​A Space for Practice, Not Classes: Please note that this is a collective practice space rather than a training class. We honor all traditions, and dancers of all Banis are encouraged to practice in their own authentic style.
