About Aura Academy of Arts

Aura Academy of Arts is a multi-discipline arts school whose Dubai branch is in Suite 204 of Palace Tower T1, Dubai Silicon Oasis. Bollywood is one of many dance styles on its programme, alongside hip-hop, K-pop, Bharatanatyam, Kathak, contemporary, ballet, jazz and tap. Beyond dance, the academy teaches music and vocals (keyboard, guitar, drums, Western and Carnatic singing), martial arts such as karate, painting and drawing, drama and fitness. Classes are for children, teens and adults, and its kids' creative arts programme is for ages 4 to 12. The academy says it has been teaching since 2017 and describes itself as KHDA approved. Students perform at an annual day show, and there are seasonal camps in spring, summer and winter. Plans come as 4- and 6-class packs or 1-, 3- and 6-month programmes, but fees and timetables are not on the website, so message the academy to check which classes run at this branch, for which ages and when.

The activity

Bollywood Dance, explained

Bollywood dance is the lively, story-driven style you see in Hindi film songs. It mixes Indian classical and folk steps with hip-hop, jazz and contemporary moves, and each routine acts out the song with facial expressions and hand gestures. In a children's class, kids learn a routine to a popular film track a few counts at a time, working on rhythm, coordination, memory and moving together as a group. The music is bright and familiar, so it suits children who love to perform, and routines often build towards a stage show. Along the way it builds stamina and confidence in front of an audience. At Aura, the kids' creative arts programme starts at age 4.

Who it's for

Children, teens and adults, from complete beginners to advanced performers. The kids' creative arts programme is for ages 4 to 12. Age groups for Bollywood classes specifically are not published: ask the academy.

What to expect

The website does not describe a first class, a trial policy, session length or what to wear, so ask the academy before you go. What it does say: classes run from beginner to advanced level, and the academy says its 4- and 6-class packs suit beginners, casual learners and anyone exploring different programmes, while the 1-, 3- and 6-month plans suit students who want to build technique or prepare for performances. Students get stage time at the academy's annual day show. Some go on to graded exams: the academy lists Global Arts Council (UK) graded dance exams, and Trinity College London and ABRSM preparation for music. Weekend batches and private coaching are also listed.
