From the reviews
Where to start? This will be Aashi’s 8th year with RAPA—and time has truly flown by in the best way possible: while having fun, learning so much, and growing through dance.
Attended yoga at RAPA class run by Jyothi Hoskere. Fantastic class for all levels that is exactly what I was looking for. Each class is different and Jyothi’s guidance through out very helpful to get the best of the class.
My daughter has been a student of Rapa for 3 years now. Karan and Meera riar are very dedicated to the students. Classes and shows are super organized!! We have loads of fun. We see marked improvement in her skills and are excited to continue our journey with Rapa !
A decade-long bond—and still going strong. This year marks Esha's 10th anniversary with RAPA, and it’s been nothing short of amazing. What began as a hobby has transformed into a deep passion and commitment to giving back by helping the next generation of young dancers at RAPA.
Your first ballet class at Riar Academy of Performing Arts (RAPA)
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
