Started in a two-room flat in 2016
Mitali Sen taught dance from her front room in Behala for nine years before taking the ground floor at 14/1 Diamond Harbour Road. Parents kept asking if someone could also teach drawing, then karate, then English. So we added one class at a time, hiring teachers we would send our own children to.
Today there are three air-conditioned rooms, nine teachers and a small waiting area with a water filter where parents sit and chat. We know every child by name.

Message us
Send the child's age and the class you have in mind on WhatsApp. We reply within the day with the free slots.
Come for a free class
The child sits in one full class. Parents can watch from the waiting area. No payment that day.
Pay for the month
Fees are monthly, paid by UPI or cash at the desk by the 10th. There is a one-time admission fee of ₹300.
Join the parents' group
Timetable changes, holidays, show dates and photos from class come on the WhatsApp group.
The first class is always free
Try dance on Monday and karate on Wednesday if you like. Decide after.
Every child goes on stage once a year
Our annual show is in December at the Behala Blind School auditorium. Dance, music and karate students perform. Drawing students' work is hung in the lobby. Parents come, grandparents come, nobody sits at the back.
A normal week at Anondo
Why families stay for years
My daughter does dance and drawing on alternate days, so I drop her at 4 and pick her up at 6 from the same gate. For a working mother that is the whole point.
Our son would not speak a word of English in front of people. After eight months of the Sunday batch he gave a two-minute speech at his school. We were not expecting that.

Before you message
Can my child start in the middle of the month?
Yes. We charge only for the classes left in that month and start full fees from the next month.
What if we miss a class?
Tell us a day before and the child can attend the same class in another batch that week. We do not refund missed classes.
Can parents sit in the class?
For the free trial, yes. After that parents wait in the waiting area so the children settle. You can watch through the glass panel any time.
Is the centre safe?
A staff member sits at the gate from 3.30 to 8.30 pm. Children are handed over only to the person named on the admission form, and we have CCTV in the corridor and waiting area.
Do you give certificates?
Karate belts come from the state association. Abacus levels come with a certificate from our affiliating body. Dance, music and drawing students get our own annual certificate and perform on stage.
