### My story

I’m Archana. Artist, dancer, performer – life’s all about movement for me. Lost my friend Indu, she pushed me to teach Kathak. I dance, I mourn, I celebrate. Nature’s my guru, teaches me to keep going even when days get heavy and lonely. My daughter’s giggles, memories with my Sensei Ohashi San, those moments keep me moving. Sometimes I just dance in my own space, finding peace. That’s me – always searching, always moving.
