## About Dance Workshops & Educational Programs

### Why I Dance

Dance is my way to chase light, just like *Aghor* means - pure light, no shadows. Every class is a bit of creation and letting go, a bit like Shiva’s Tandav - sometimes wild, sometimes deep.

### What We Do at Trikayaa

At Trikayaa, I blend martial dances, classic styles, and modern moves. My approach follows the *guru-shishya* tradition (teacher-student bond), but it’s not all serious - we have fun, stay disciplined, and treat every session as a chance to grow as performers, not just dancers.

### What You’ll Find Here

- Programs for all ages and backgrounds, from kids to adults, total newbies to those wanting to go pro.
- Regular classes in Mayurbhanj Chhau (my personal favorite - an Indian martial dance class), Bharatanatyam (Kalakshetra style), Jazz, Contemporary, and Bollywood-inspired sessions.
- Intensive courses with exams, certifications, and real stage opportunities, including for those wanting holistic dance training programs.
- School and college workshops, plus international cultural exchanges - I love bringing Indian dance to new places.

### How We Learn

It’s not just about steps. My classes dive into theory, practicals, body strength, and even things like costume and makeup. Students get to perform at real venues (Kamani Auditorium, for example). You’ll learn from me, Priya Srinivasan (for Bharatanatyam), and a team that’s as passionate about dance as you are.

Classes are in Indirapuram, Ghaziabad, plus options for Delhi, Noida, Vasundhara, and online.

### My story

We are dancers, but really, we’re storytellers – sharing our culture’s spirit, not just steps. Winning the Bismillah Khan award pushed us to do more. Trikayaa Dance Foundation is our way to keep ancient art alive. Dance means more than movement, it’s a spiritual thing, like the aghoris say: aghor do shabdon se bana hai, 'a' aur 'ghor', matlab andhere ke bina (made of two words, meaning ‘without darkness’). We put this warrior energy into our Mayurbhanj Chhau. Seeing kids and women perform this, wow, that’s pride. Our work is all about keeping our virasat (heritage) moving forward.

### My work

- **Choreography & Productions**: We create thematic dance productions for festivals, events, and launches, blending classical and martial styles.
- **Dance Classes & Workshops**: Regular classes in Mayurbhanj Chhau, Bharatanatyam, Contemporary, plus workshops for schools, colleges, and corporate groups.
- **Fusion Performances**: Our shows mix raw Mayurbhanj Chhau energy with classical finesse and folk traditions for unique stage experiences.
- **Heritage Dance Training**: We train dancers of all ages, sharing Indian heritage through dance, from kids to professionals.
- **Large-Scale Cultural Events**: Grand productions like 'Colours of India' bring 50+ artists together, perfect for big festivals and cultural showcases.
