About Dance Instruction
Why I Dance
Dance is my stressbuster, my joy, and the way I find and tell stories without words. I grew up on stage and now, teaching feels just as thrilling as performing. Watching students grow in confidence and rhythm - that's what keeps me hooked.
Bharatanatyam: Where We Start
I welcome kids from 6 years up who want to try Bharatanatyam, even if they've never danced before. We start at the very basics - things like Alaripu, so students can really feel how a dancer blossoms. I use the old-school method of teaching Adavus with beats like "ta tei tei ta", helping everyone get that rhythmic movement in their bones. My classes are meant to be patient, but I push for strong technique all the way.
Flamenco: Dance with Fire
For learners looking for something different, I also teach Flamenco. It's energetic, powerful, and full of expressive moves - nothing like the classical stuff! I bring all my stage experience and what I've learned from performing, so classes feel alive and real.
My Approach
I want every student to find their own rhythm and style, whether they're into disciplined classical dance or the wild energy of Flamenco. It's not just about repeating steps - it's about understanding tradition, technique, and having fun too.
Where We Move
My main studio is in Defence Colony, New Delhi - proper wooden floors, big mirrors, everything a dancer needs. I also teach at WestEnd and another Defence Colony spot, so there's flexibility depending on what suits you.

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.
