Thank you ever so much for the excellent Dance Education workshop you held for my students in October 2010. The theme was well presented and the children's energies were released through stress free mind and body co-ordination. This is laudable. Not only did the children enjoy the workshop but their parents also enjoyed watching them.
Thanks to Shiamak for introducing SDE in schools. I have found a tremendous change in our children as far as the dancing techniques are concerned, skills are concerned, their attitude, their personality, it’s all being groomed. Thanks to the trained instructors for their guidance and under their supervision our children our really doing wonders. Keep up the good work Shiamak!
I think dance forms most beautiful expression for Students to come out with their potentials and this has been a very fun filled experience for my children. The amazing instructors of Shiamak Davar have been very influential in making my children perform beautifully with the different dance styles. I wish them all the best in their future endeavours and I wish them all the Success.
