In the hustle and bustle of routine dance class activities, there are several things that I would miss out on saying. I am glad Jaishreeakka is giving me this opportunity to pour my heart out.

I have always tried to emulate your management skills. You indeed are a living case study for the IIMs and the Harvard Business Schools of the world. Your foresight, vision and creativity are indeed remarkable. Every single minute that I spend with you is a learning experience and I am glad God chose me over the next person to be your student.

The confidence that your teaching has given me is immense. I can walk up on any stage at any point of time and speak out to a large gathering of people without fluttering or stammering. I have learnt to adjust to every circumstance because of the vigorous training I have received from you. The way we all just silently dress up before any programme, no matter the cirumstance.

I say this in the singular first person, but I am sure my friends will agree. I would rather walk in the midst of a desert, in the peak of summer, than be at the receiving end of your wrath. I would rather be hit by a train on my way to dance class, than come to a rehearsal without ghungroos. I would rather talk to you during times of trouble, than confide in the Lord himself.

There are so many things that I can learn from you and I hope I am at least worthy enough to tread the same path as you, let alone walking all the way and reaching your position. I hope I am able to set an example to my juniors and that they grow up understanding and appreciating God's gift to them.

Love,
Aishwarya Ramani
