Sona learnt the language, Gujarati and the Hindu Culture, both from her Guru Smt. Ditptiben Dave and the BAPS Shree Swaminarayan Mandir, Houston to be able to master this discipline. Performing her Arangetram will bring fruition to her ten years of training, discipline and commitment. The journey has been beautiful under the guiding and nurturing support of all her teachers who have carved Sona into a robust individual. Guru Smt. Diptiben Dave has given Sona the gift of coexistence, where Sona been a modern Houstonian has been able to embrace the ancient art of dance, Bharatnatyam.
