She began training as a 9-year-old and has delved into the depths of pursuing a PhD. in Bharatnatyam while still being a Kuchipudi maestro. Bijal has shining examples of rigorous training – first from respected guru Ms Smita Shastri and then from the renowned guru and SNA Awardee Dr Sandhya Purecha. Not satisfied with her initial Diplomas, she joined Bharata College and obtained Masters in Fine Arts and further mastered the art of Kuchipudi from the eminent guru and Padma Bhushan Dr Raja Radha Reddy 

For 3 years now she is receiving rigorous training in the ancient martial art form Kalaripayattu under the able guidance of learned artist D. Padmakumar. Various national and international awards and accolades dot her career of over 30 years and she has the experience of performing at numerous global events. Fired by passion to keep enhancing her own proficiency in the dance forms, Bijal also has the temperament to get her students to learn dance comprehensively, in theory and in practice, at her Parampara Academy of Performing Arts, a place she established in 2010.
