NCPA Nrityaparichay is a CSR initiative, supported by corporate organisations, which seeks to impart classical dance training to underprivileged children. Apart from training for nine months, students are also provided with a rich understanding of the traditions and customs of the place of origin of each dance form. The programme encompasses visits to the NCPA to watch dance performances by renowned artistes and provide necessary exposure in terms of technicality in relation to dance. Students learn a particular classical form which culminates in a stage performance by them at the NCPA. With successful programmes for the last six years, the NCPA currently has projects running across 12 schools in Mumbai. Students of Nrityaparichay perform on a regular basis with their teachers in recognised dance competitions and festivals.
