Hall of Hawks

We started Redhawks in 2011 with nothing but passion and a problem - Karkala didn’t have a space where we could truly train, learn, and go deeper into the craft we loved. So we built one.

We’re Manikanta Prasad and Arpith Nair, and back then we were just two dancers looking for the right place to grow. When we couldn’t find it, we decided to create it ourselves.

Our motto has stayed simple since day one: spread the love for dance, and bring together people who share that same pull towards the art. No shortcuts, no gatekeeping - just a space for anyone who wants to train seriously and learn deeply.

Over the years, we’ve grown from an idea into a full training ground - shaping dancers across styles, ages, and skill levels. But the mission hasn’t changed.
