| Indian Classical Music and Dance Teacher's Database | ||||||
| Since SRUTI was started in 1986, there has been a growing number of children, born in U.S.A., who have been training in Indian classical music and dance. As part of our mission in promoting and creating awareness of Indian classical music and dance in the greater Delaware Valley, Sruti is creating a database of teachers. We encourage teachers to submit their details to the President which includes enough details for potential students to contact you. If you live in the greater Delaware Valley area, we will gladly include the information. By publishing the names Sruti does not endorse anyone in particular, but is doing so as a service to the community. | ||||||
