G2 Dance Factory | Owner/Leadership : Hetal Nagaraj

​

• The fusions idea were first launched in 2011 in name of Grace Creations Fusion Dance Company by Hetal Nagaraj for her own kids and her kids' birth friends, independently.

• Hetal's own 40hours of professional kathak trainings(97-98) were inspirations behind this brand.

  • Read about Hetal's trainings.

• The fusion company's goal was to infuse nonindian dance performing arts to use all amazing trained skilled dancers, prepare for gigs and all other industry level work.

• This was because hetal's personal friends had kids in martial arts, gymnasts, cheer leading, hiphop, ballet and broadway specialities that were trained from other institutes such as Ballet Academy of Texas, Texas Gymnastics, Lil Gymboree, Coppell Dance Centre & Prestige Performing Arts (Now Dana Studio of Dance, Coppell) and they were all enrolled for Bharatnatyam, Folk Dances and Bollywood under Hetal Nagaraj in Irving, Keller, Southlake and Carrollton.

• Hetal mastered hiphop and broadway specialities to use it appropriately and for full safety of her dancers. These trainings were also from above institutes and from Booker T, Dallas, Texas. progressive workshops. Level by Level.

•  In 2020, we felt the need to re-create the whole brand itself and G2 dance factory was thus established for which people were hired by projects or by hours/or by tasks.

• The brand focus is to offer commercial training programs that was created in 2020 with a base of educational & professional programs programs offered within the institute itself and bid for bigger projects.
