In July 2021, Kassiyet, alongside Sharanya Pranav, co-founded the Bay Area Adavu Community, a collective aimed at bringing Bharatanatyam dancers in the Bay Area together to practice, connect, and foster a vibrant dance community. This initiative was created to provide a platform for dancers to engage in regular practice sessions, celebrate the art form, and strengthen the bonds within the local Bharatanatyam community.

Since its inception, the Bay Area Adavu Community has hosted numerous events, workshops, and performances, actively engaging local Bharatanatyam dancers and enthusiasts. The community has also taken steps to bridge generations by inviting senior artists to lead masterclasses, share their expertise, and interact with the Indian diaspora living in the United States. Through these efforts, the Bay Area Adavu Community has become a cornerstone for preserving and promoting Bharatanatyam in the region, inspiring dancers and audiences alike.
