My daughter started learning Bharat Natyam here when she was 4. We are very happy with teachers and specially Paromita & Krithika who pays special attention to detail to all the steps and postures. Anyone looking to learn this dance form can definitely rely on this center

I have been learning with Nrityalina dance studio for 6 years. The experience has been incomparable. Every time we learn something new, Ms. Paromita helps us understand and get better. I feel like I’m becoming a better dancer with every class and it is so enjoyable, even making mistakes, because then we work harder to be the best.

We have been with nrityalina since 2019 when my daughter is 4years - ever since had a great collaboration and paromita is very good at making it right for the kids - I also got a opportunity to be part of nrtiyalina Zumba which is an incredible experience as well - thanks for all the good work the team is putting and keeping our culture transforming to kids in the form of bharathanatyam

I have been learning Bharatanatyam Dance form in Nrityalina since last 4 years. Teachers are very talented , well trained ,caring, dedicated and knowledgeable. They take care of each and individual student and the classes are tailored for individual's need so that the whole course encourages to push one's ability. Last but not the least, Nrityalina makes learning a tough Dance form like Bharatnatyam relatively easy and fun to learn.

This is my daughter’s second year with Nrityalina centre for Performing arts.. We are highly impressed by Paromita and her ways of training the girls.. She is strict,disciplined yet friendly and that’s what we love about this dance school.. Thanks for all your hardwork Paromita..

Both my daughters have been learning Bharatnatyam with Nrityalina and we are very happy with the institution. Looking forward to many more year with Nrityalina family!

I have been learning bharathnatyam at Nrityalina since 2017 and I have enjoyed all my classes. Its one of the things I look forward to every week. I love how the teachers are so patient and kind and provide such a comfortable and safe environment to learn. Their feedbacks are also so helpful in improving ourselves. I would definitely recommend learning here!

A great institution for classical Indian dance, it organizes numerous local performances. Students have the option to graduate. The teaching is thorough, with each step carefully explained to ensure students fully understand. They have multiple locations. Ms. Paromita’s efforts are greatly appreciated, and she is very friendly with both students and teachers. I would recommend this institution for any kind of Indian classical dance or music .

Me and my daughter have been going to Nrityalina since 4 months and it’s an absolute delight! Not only are we learning the dance, but we also had the opportunity to bond in a fun and lively atmosphere. Ms.Paromitha is incredibly patient and skilled, making the experience enjoyable for both me and my daughter. She corrects every detail and goes through each and every student. This also is giving me an opportunity to teach my daughter at home and make her practice a little more. Highly recommend for any mother-daughter duo looking to learn together and share some quality time!

My daughter has been going for little over 1 year now. She was little hesitant to start a dance form which she doesn’t understand well. But Nrityalina helped her to get her more interested with dance form. They also nicely explain to kids in English so they can relate to the dance meaning.

My daughter has been learning Bharatnatyam at Nrityalina under the guidance of Guru Parmomita Ji for the past eight years. The teachers are highly skilled, dedicated, and patient, ensuring that each student receives personalized attention until they achieve perfection. The annual recital is a true delight, reflecting the immense effort put in by both teachers and students. Those preparing for exams receive thorough training from the gurus, ensuring their success. If you’re looking for the best place to learn Bharatnatyam, Kathak Nrityalina is the perfect choice!

We have been associated with Nrityalina family for almost 10 years now. It has been a wonderful journey with talented teachers. Ms Paromita is skilled and passionate, making each session both fun and educational. The class covers technique and the cultural aspects of the dance. Whether you're a beginner or more advanced, this class provides the perfect environment to learn and grow in Bharatnatyam. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn or refine their Bharatnatyam skills!

My daughter Vaani has been learning dance ( semi classical and contemporary ) from Nritya creations from past 2 years. Her teachers Ms Serita and Ms Aayushma are excellent and very creative . We can see a lot of improvement in her dance with the technique used by the teachers. This has helped them to win competitions too!

Our daughter has trained in western dancing for several years. However, her love of Bollywood songs and movies led to her affinity with eastern dancing. She didn’t want to focus on just Bollywood dancing but wanted to pay homage to her South Indian roots and incorporate some form of classical dancing along with western dance techniques. Nritya Creations (NC)offered just that, an Indo-Contemporary class that incorporated Classical, Lyrical, and Jazz. NC and its teachers have provided a wonderful outlet for our daughter to perfect her technique and learn the art form. She has become even more confident and poised over the past 3 years, all the while having fun.

Had a great experience with learning at Nritya Creations.

Nritya Creations is an amazing dance institute that has taught me so much over the past 10 years. I love the teachers and the community I am surrounded in every practice, competition and recital. I am incredibly proud to be part of this team.

I'm taking the adult dance class with Shreya and she is very good with the instructions and help us move with our pace. Totally loving it.

Ms.Shreya is an amazing dancer, choreographer and teacher. She spends time explaining each and every step very nicely. Love her classes!

I have been dancing with Nritya Creations since I was 9 years old, and attending the Bharatantyam and Indo-contemporary classes have truly allowed me to grow into the dancer I have become today. The emphasis that is placed on having flawless technique in every dance form has been especially helpful, and the lessons that I have learned throughout the years is something I know I will carry with me in the future, as well. The close-knit relationship between the teachers and students also creates an amazing culture in the studio. I can't thank all the teachers enough for everything they have done!

I’ve been learning at Nritya creations and enjoying all the different fusion styles from Semiclassical to bolly hip hop to indo contemporary for the past many years.I have developed as a dancer much more because of exposure to varied dance forms. Ms.Melanie’s style and demeanor are beyond par and I also enjoy Ms.Angelina’s exciting choreography which challenges us an advanced competition team each class. This has helped my cheer practice too by enhancing my focus in the dance routine part and being part of an amazing team of kids and inspiring professional teachers!

These teachers are really experienced and helped me learn so much. Very good choreography as well.

Well Experienced dance professionals for Indian classical dances program

My kids love their teacher at this dance academy in Edison. It helps them open up and have confidence in parties

My daughter has been going to Nritya Creations for 7 years. We absolutely love the quality of the teaching. The teachers are very experienced and disciplined. The transformation I have seen in my daughters dancing is just amazing. I highly recommend this institute for all types of dance.

My daughter is learning Kathak from Mrs. Ruee from last three years! Mrs.Ruee is a great teacher and my daughter enjoys and thoroughly loves her classes. Mrs.Ruee is so patient and connects so well with kids. All the kids in her class love her.

My daughter has been learning kathak here for about 4 years. The teachers are great...they are dedicated, very professional and care about their students. Ms. Bhumi (kathak teacher) is one of the best teachers! Would recommend to anyone who wants to learn dance!!

Nritya Creations is an amazing dance school, I would highly recommend. My older daughter learnt Bharatnatayam for over 7 yrs and my younger daughter is learning Kathak for the past 4 years. The teachers are exceptionally well qualified and take great pride in teaching the technique while inculcating the discipline to thrive. I love that they get to take part in several competitions and performances throughout the year, which helps them showcase their talent at a bigger and wider platform. This also helps create bonds and friendships that will last a lifetime. We are forever indebted to Meena and Nritya creations to instill the love for classical indian dance

My daughter learns kathak with Nritya creations for more than 3 years now. The teacher Bhoomi makes it fun for students and increases their interest in the dance form. Highly recommend.

My daughter has had a wonderful experience learning Kathak from Ms. Bhoomi and performing with Nritya Creations. Ms. Bhoomi is talented and genuinely a fantastic coach/guru for young girls learning a skill and growing and developing their talents. Her gentle and nurturing approach to teaching and guiding the girls during their recital and performance reveals an immense level of self-discipline, patience, confidence, talent, and leadership. My daughter cannot stop praising her experience with Ms. Bhoomi and the opportunities she has been given through Nritya Creations. We look forward to seeing how her path progresses with the correct environment and teachers who bring out the passion and discipline to strive and achieve greater heights, and the people who inspire a love for culture and the art forms. Thank you so much for providing this wonderful experience and opportunity to my daughter and the community.

My daughter Saumya is learning kathak here and is privileged having a great teacher Ms Bhoomi. Ms Bhoomi is a very talented and very sweet. She is experienced and knowledgeable. We were searching a good kathak teacher from last year and finally our search is complete. thank you so much for all your efforts and support

My daughter is learning Bharathanatiyam in Nritya creations in 6th year.Mr.Damir is her guru. Rarely we see the teachers who are friendly with kids at the same time control over class. Kids does not loose the interest to learn. Mr.Damir is the one who has complete control, consistent and I do see his passion in Bharathanatiyam when he teaches kids. I strongly recommend him as great teacher.

I have been a student at Nritya Creations for 9+ years now and I’ve loved dancing here ever since I started. The teachers here are excellent and they have taught me so much throughout the years. I learned ballet, bharatanatyam, fusion, jazz, hip hop, and more! This dance studio is amazing and I would definitely recommend Nritya Creations to anyone looking to learn dance.

I have been dancing with Nritya Creations for most of my life. This school has allowed me to blossom as a dancer. Without Nritya Creations and the teachers here I would not be as strong of a dancer as I am today. I am forever grateful for the experiences that I have received and will continue to receive through Nritya Creations. These teacher help you to push yourself in and out of the studio; they have partaken in interviews with me and written me recommendation letters without which I would not be able to pursue my passions.

Both of my daughters have taken lessons at Nritya and they have not only learned various forms of dance, but have also gained confidence while doing so. The teachers are fantastic, I would highly recommend this dance studio.

Raiya is now 14 and she has more confidence in front of an audience than most adults as far as performing whether it be a dance, acting, singing. It stems from an early start with Nritya Creations. The teachers are dedicated and educate the children and build confidence to perform and execute in front of an audience. We believe that this aspect is under appreciated but really impacts the children. Thanks to Nritya, Raiya has built more and more self confidence through the years and it has impacted her in school and in her life. Many people have come to us as parents and asked us about her ability to speak in public or act in front of 500 people and we do share that part of it comes from her experience with Nritya

Wonderful performances by students and staff at their Naach 360 recital ! A high caliber school which I highly recommend!

My daughter has been taking lessons for about 8 years and I took lessons as well for about 3 years or so. Teachers are excellent, committed to growth of students as dancers. Tatyana takes personal interest in each student, has been very patient correcting mistakes minor (and not minor). Excellent dance choreography as well.

My daughters were learning Bollywood style at the Edison ( Iselin) Center... I loved the way the classes were conducted... Very professional teacher ( Ms Kena). My girls danced with more confidence and zeal. The Admin staff is also very cooperative. I also saw classical form bring taught there and they were good. Overall a good experience

My daughter has been going to this academy for few years now, and over that time period I saw great improvement in her dance. She was also able to view some aspects of our culture through this academy. Their dances are delightful and filled with technique. I highly recommend Nritya Creations.

One of the best dance school I have ever come across. We have been associated with the Nritya Creations for nore than 2 years now. My daughter has been part of both the bollywood dance as well as the Bharadhanatiyam class. Especially the foundation techniques taught for Bharatanatiyam is really mind blowing. I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to Damir Tasmagambetov Sir for the sincere and dedicated way of teaching the small ones with high patience and outstanding techniques. For a classical dance the foundation is most important and I feel he is doing it to highest satisfaction with his excellent talent and outstanding teaching skills. Naach 360 2019 was well organised and an excellent way to get the students exposed to high end performances. I wish Meena Basu Nag and all the teachers the very best and wish the Nritya Creations Academy of dance progress further with flying colors.

I have been a student at Nritya Creations for 3 years now. All the teachers are excellent at their respective jobs and very professional. The students and teacher bonding makes the dance very enjoyable. The entire staff has great amount of knowledgeable in their dances. They work on your techniques and help you improve. In my 3 years, I have grown to love the dance and always look forward to learn more. I would definitely recommend Nritya Creations.

Nirtya Creations cares about the Dance and culture. They are bringing back life to the traditional dance along with fusion of latest dance. The professionalism they show to their jobs, the respect towards their dance, the care they take for each and every student are very much appreciated.

I have been a student at Nritya Creations for 9 years. I have throughly enjoyed my experience thus far and will most definitely continue to. Mrs. Tatyana is a phenomenal teacher and I have flourished as a dancer under her watch and support.

Learning dance has been fun at Nritiya Creations and I love the studio!

Great school and teachers who teach with lot of focus and discipline.

I am so grateful to have been a part of Nritya Creations that takes art of dance so seriously. Teachers are super talented who work on your technique. They focus on your mistakes and provide proper guidance to overcome it. There is such a wonderful balance of disipline, fun and an extraordinary self confidence in each and every dancer.

This dance school is one of the best in the area. I have brought my daughter to many other schools over the past 4 years but none of them have shown as much improvement as Nritya Creations. My daughter has so much fun in class and the teachers also work with me to help my child improve. The teachers are driven to create the best dancers and will go out of their way to help the students learn and grow.

Nritya Creations is a fantastic dance school. Teachers are extremely experienced and educated. It offers a wide variety of classes for people of all ages. Nritya Creations is the perfect place to study dance for anyone who is interested.

Nritya Creations is truly devoted to its students. Staff focus on equipping students with a strong foundation of technique and theory while cultivating their creativity within the art form. Students produce strong artistic work at the end of the school year, and it is a delight to watch!

Nritya Creations is a great institution for learning various styles of Indian dance as well as Western dance forms. Staff focuses on technique and making sure your child really learns the art form in a disciplined and structured manner!! Would highly recommend without any question!

Nritya Creations is the most fantastic and nurturing dance school in the tri-state area. They have one thing and that is quality like no other dance school in New Jersey. Teachers are extremely experienced, knowledgeable, and have given us students the passion we have for dance as an art form. I have been attending classes in Bharatanatyam, Western Ballet, Bollywood Fusion, Jazz, and Hip-Hop for the past 10 years and I enjoy participating in shows with the Nritya Creations Performing Company. Dancing here has given me a whole new passion and love for this art form. I have met many of my closest friends here and everyone, including the teachers and staff, are caring and friendly.

Nritya Creations creative fusion choreography is what makes them a unique dance school. They truly emphasize technique in all styles of dance to make well rounded dancers. I would highly recommend this studio to anyone passionate about dance.

have been with NC for 8 years now and not only do they focus on strength and technique but also the passion and emotion of the art. “Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion.”- Martha Graham. Every style and technique is taught with precision while also bringing out emotion and meaning through expression. This is not your ordinary dance studio. It is much more. With these key qualities that dancers need, NC is the best dance school/performing company around!

Nritya Creations Academy is the right place for all those who wish to explore and enjoy dance !

Nritya creations has been an excellent dance academy for both of my girls. They have been able to participate in multiple competitions and an annual recital. Each year they learn new dances and improve their dancing ability. It has truly been a great experience!

If you are looking for a premier dance school or performing company, your search stops here. This is the only fusion dance school in New Jersey that not only focuses on teaching true dance technique but also teaches its members how to be well-rounded, versatile, and professional dancers. I have been dancing for over 20 years and this was the perfect place for me to not only continue my professional dance experience, but also to grow as a dancer and choreographer. I would highly recommend this award-winning school for any dancer, young or old!

Over the course of my association with Nritya Creations Academy of Dance and its performing company, I have always been impressed with the vibrancy, creativity, and classical foundation of both its choreographies and its teachings. Dancers and students are exposed to and rigorously trained in diverse forms of dance, and the attention and love given to each movement are evident in wonderful performances. This academy has created a supportive, welcoming, and challenging environment for all students.

I have been dancing at Nritya Creations for 4 years and I instantly felt like family! In the past years I have grown so much as a dancer and Nritya Creations has made a huge impact on my life. I then joined the performing company where I got to perform at so many amazing places and with so many amazing dancers! If you like the art of dance, make sure you join Nritya Creations

Paromita is a very dedicated teacher.kids will like her

I am glad that I put my daughter in this centre. Excellent job by the teacher.She is too good.

Paromita is an excellent teacher and a person by heart . My kid loves her class and I would highly recommend her class .

My 6 yr old goes here for Bharatnatyam classes..The teacher, Paromita is a multi-talented.She is very patient with children,given the different ages of toddlers that she teaches.She thrives to teach them with perfection. The fees charged also seems worth..whether it is the amount they learn or the various stage performances the children give..lucky my daughter who gets an exposure to dance through her.

My Kid is learning bharatanatyam for more than one year and i am really happy about Guru Mrs.Paromita for her dedication towards all kids. She creates a very good platform for kids to show and improve their talents.

Paromita is a very dedicated, passionate and hardworking dancer. Not only that, she is a very good teacher also, which, in my honest opinion, is a rare combination!She makes sure all the students perform dance perfectly. She pursues each and every one of us till we do it technically correct. She has got great level of patience to dance with numerous children.Through several dance shows, that the institute is invited to, students build stage courage and confidence. Apart from that, the location of the class is a plus point and the fees is very reasonable.Overall, a very good institute if you want to pursue your dance hobby and even take it to the next level!

My daughter has been learning Bharatnatyam at Nrityalina for over a year and I couldn't have been happier. The owner/instructor, Paromita, is not only a great dancer but a very warm and humble person that reflects clearly in her teaching style. I have seen her conduct classes for different age groups and it's amazing to see she can be so patient and yet get the best out of her students. She can moderate her class based on the child's age, ability and temperament. Pays specific attention to detail and makes sure children learn the basics of the dance form correctly. I highly recommended the teacher and her dance institute!

Paromita is a awesome teacher.If you want your kid to dance or sing, I would say do check if she have space available

Paromita miss is very kind and caring towards children and instils a love for dance through her patience. We have loved having our child learn from her and would look forward to have her learn more and more from her. Thank you miss Paromita:)
