My daughter started learning Kathak from Rashmi Ma’am at the age of 5. She is, in fact, among the first few students who joined so many years ago. Ours has been a long and difficult journey towards learning this beautiful dance form. From offline classes in Jaipur with Ma’am to being posted out and moving cities every few years, it has been challenging to keep my daughter’s interest going. But the very fact that my daughter Avantika has not stopped learning is all because of Rashmi Ma’am’s dedication, perseverance, her passion and her discipline which she has instilled in my daughter. After the first few years Avantika’s entire learning has been online. Rashmi Ma’am’s pursuit for perfection, her genuine desire to see her students succeed ,her deep involvement in every aspect of the dance form has contributed into molding my daughter into the person she is today.

My daughter joined Rashmi Ma’am two years to start her journey of learning Kathak. Rashmi Ma’am is a dedicated, knowledgeable and detail oriented guru while being a beautiful, powerful performer as well. She connects well with her students and always finds a way to encourage them to do their best. My daughter is now 8 and has already done 2 stage shows under Ma’am. I would recommend Rashmi Ma’am and NITYAM to those who want to learn Kathak in all its authenticity and purity.

My daughter has been learning Kathak from Rashmi Uppal Ma’am since early 2019. She has nurtured her all along to make her a fine dancer. Rashmi was able to pull off online classes with so much ease during COVID, that not for once did we have our doubts about continuing the artform. Rashmi gives in her heart and soul in ensuring that each student learns and performs to their best, especially for their annual functions, she tirelessly works for weeks to bring out the best in each student. My daughter has come to love kathak and its all thanks to her lovely mentor.

I have been associated with Rashmi ma’am and Nityam for more than 7 years now. It has been an absolute pleasure to have been around her – as a student and now as an admin. I am forever grateful for her passion, her commitment, her teachings and her friendship. She has been a beautiful Guru to all her students. To watch her perform on stage is a masterclass in itself. Her classes are bubbling with energy and joy.
