When we think of giftedness, academics often come to mind first. But what about talent in the performing arts? How do parents and educators recognize and nurture it?
In this episode of Being Gifted, we are joined by Ms. Shashikala Gundlupet—an MBA, and a unique multidisciplinary Ph.D. scholar in Performing Arts, Gifted Education, and Management. She is also an accomplished Bharatanatyam dancer, Carnatic vocalist, poet, writer, and researcher, whose career beautifully blends art, education, and culture.
Together, we explore the intersection of giftedness and performing arts, with valuable insights for both parents and teachers.
In this episode, we discuss:
How to identify giftedness in performing arts, especially dance
Approaches to nurturing talent using a holistic blend of Dance, Abhinaya, and Panchakosha
The role of parents and schools in supporting young dancers
The significance of pursuing a professional degree in performing arts while honoring the Guru-Shishya Parampara
The evolving role of classical dance in modern times, and its importance in preserving Indian culture
Striking a balance between encouragement and pressure—especially in the age of social media
This conversation shines a light on the unique challenges and joys of raising and teaching artistically gifted children.
