My Story

Dance is how I journal, honestly. When life gets heavy or light, I just move. Boston’s home now, but New York’s dance scene shaped me – even bumped into my old school senior from India in a class, wild right? We ended up flatmates. I’m all about those little connections. If I’m not dancing, I’m in the mountains, or hanging with my beagle (who works hard at sleeping). As the poetry goes, ‘tujhe kya gam tera rishta, gagan ki bansuri se hai’ (what sorrow when you’re tied to the sky’s flute).

My Work

Dance Choreography & Private Lessons - I teach kathak fusion choreography, Bollywood private dance lessons, and semi-classical styles for groups or solo.

My Approach - It’s not about perfect steps. I focus on expressive abhinaya choreography and soulful dance storytelling. Every piece is personal.

Space to Grow - No pressure here. Whether it’s a fun workshop or a personal routine, I want you to connect with music and yourself.
