We just did two or three hours of workshop all day. We gathered people, entertained them, and taught them dance and then made them dance with us. They just enjoyed it. In this process I got students and people to talk about my dance academy.

Opening a dance academy is however not an easy task, besides requiring a good locality it either requires you to be a certified dancer or hire a certified dancer to teach who can teach the various kinds of dances in vogue.

"Ours is a dance and fitness studio for all age groups both kids and elders.We have age groups into which we have divided them, like we divide the kids into particular age groups and teach them and we even have elderswhom we teach from morning eight to nine.

I advertise through pamphlets. I give it to restaurants. I got one of the restaurants to even share my pamphlets. This way my dance academy was advertised in different areas and through it I got customers. It's not been even one month I got 40 students," said the owner of the dance studio.
