### My story

We’re Grey Sorbet, juggling between dance and design, right here in Delhi. My world swings from Bharatanatyam performances with Jyotsna Shourie’s company—imagine ‘UNMASKED’, ‘SAKHI’, all that stage energy—to crafting spaces that feel alive. That handcrafted lamp in India Today Home? Yup, ours. Whether we’re teaching dance, sketching out a living room, or chasing sunsets with friends, it’s all about making moments memorable. Dance and design, dono milke (both together), that’s our thing.

### My work

- **Interior Design & Home Decor**: We design residential spaces, offer home styling, renovation, and make handcrafted home decor that feels personal.
- **Dance Classes**: Beginner Bharatanatyam classes for kids (6+) and Flamenco for anyone curious. It’s about sharing the joy of dance.
- **Stage Performances**: We perform in dance-theatre productions, bringing Indian mythology to life with a fresh twist.
