First virtual Indian classical Bharatanatyam dance production in NZ
I am so pleased to share with you our first virtual thematic Indian classical Bharatanatyam dance production in NZ that we launched on the 14th Feb on "Hindu Gods" on social media. A humble effort to promote our art form and showcasing the rich local talent in the greater Wellington region through the digital medium to reach out to a wider audience nationally and internationally.
Please click on the link below to watch it at your leisure. Please feel free to share it with your friends or family who love dance. I sincerely hope you like it.
This was shot last year when things were difficult to access such as theatre, light, sound etc due to COVID restrictions. So, accept my apologies in advance for any shortcomings. This is our first attempt and lot of learnings for sure which is invaluable.

Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
