 Hi,
I am Sarada , a software professional. I have been in the software industry for 2 years now. As a child I have been very interested in dance but unfortunately never had a chance of being trained under the best of gurus. However I have learnt kuchipudi for 10 years at my hometown, Hyderabad. Right now I moved to Chennai with my husband and we work in the same office. I have been very inspired to take up dance on a full time basis at by Kuchipudi art academy here and give up my career in software. But I am a bit apprehensive about the fact that I would no longer be financially independent.
I would like some advice on this as I am obsessed about dancing but yet want to remain financially independent.
