Ms. Bhavika is the dance teacher and the director of the show. When it was close to show time she said, “I feel common excitement and eagerness with some nerves.”  She said that she feels her classes are usually the week of the show because students show they have “a game”. Compared to the first year she said, ”there has been an increase in confidence, improvement, and comfort.” She said that dance is special to her because it is something constant and reliable in life you can include and share with others.
