About Indian Classical & Semiclassical Dance
Why This Studio Hits Different
Dance toh zaroori hai yaar (Dance is a must, friend). For me, it's not just something I do, it's how I live. At Pooja Dance Studio, I want you to feel like you belong, no matter your age or experience. Seeing my students step up with confidence makes my day, every single time.
How We Teach
I keep it real - we respect tradition but don't forget to have fun. Classes cover Indian classical and semiclassical styles, online and offline.
- Kathak Lucknow Gharana: I teach the basics myself, focusing on taal, laya, and abhinaya. It's all about storytelling with every move.
- Semiclassical dance choreography: Here, classical meets filmy - lots of trending songs, some modern swag, and classes that fit packed schedules. Weekend workshops make learning super quick.
- Bharatanatyam & Odissi: Ahalya handles Bharatanatyam basics and competition prep. Sabisha leads new Odissi batches, including exam options.

My Story
Hey, I’m one of those people who just can’t stop dancing. My guru Divya ma’am pushed me to believe in myself, and now I try to do the same for everyone who walks in. At our studio, you’ll see tiny kids giggling on screens, aunties who thought Kathak was impossible now twirling on stage, and sometimes I’m surprised by how much they all grow. We do everything from Ghungroo Pooja to making reels on trending songs. Dance is home for us.
