About

For me, dance isn't just a job - it's what makes me feel alive. Dance India Dance gave me a stage, but these workshops are my real way to connect with people. My motto? Manifest, Believe, Receive. I genuinely want everyone to take some good vibes home.

What’s The Scene Like?

No boring, stiff classes here. Expect full-on bhasad (total chaos, but the fun kind). The energy is always up, and I keep the josh (enthusiasm) maxed. We learn together, mess up, laugh, and end up nailing a full routine. Once you come in, you’re R1Family.

Zero Experience? Cool!

I get this all the time - “But I can’t dance!” Doesn’t matter. I break every step down, so you can totally keep up, even if you’ve never tried before. Kids, adults, everyone’s in. No judgement, just a lot of encouragement.

What Kind Of Workshops?

• Choreography sessions for beginners - learn a full routine in one shot, usually to a trending Bollywood song or sometimes Hip-Hop Bhangra.
• Special festival events - like Garba and Dandiya for Navratri. These go on for a few days, ending with a big Dandiya Night, DJ and all.
• Masterclasses on tour - I sometimes bring the workshop to other cities too.

Bringing My Roots

As an Odia jhia (Odia girl), my culture is always part of my dance. My only promise is this: you’ll step out feeling stronger and bahut khusi (super happy).
