### My story

It’s been ages since Kathak became my world—started at 12, still grooving at 26. My gurus, my parents, always behind me, giving me all the push. Dance isn’t just steps, it’s guru-shishya parampara, passing magic down generations. That’s why I built Sāttvatī School of Dance. My students? My kids. We laugh, mess up, crush it on stage, eat cake on Teacher’s Day. Every small win, every first step, fills me up.

### My work

- **Kathak Classes & Performances**: We run beginner Kathak classes, kids Kathak lessons, and special Sufi Kathak workshops, both online and offline.
- **Our Locations**: Main studio’s in Banashankari 6th Stage, with batches at Jayanagar, Koramangala, and online for anyone, anywhere.
- **How We Teach**: Strong basics—posture, footwork, rhythm—but lots of masti (fun). Students are family. We dance, rain or shine.
- **All Arts Welcome**: Not just Kathak! We do community dance workshops and host Bharatanatyam, Odissi, and movement therapy sessions too.
- **Performances**: We hit big stages—Sangeet Natak Akademi, Hosur Natyanjali. Students get to shine, like in our 'ARAMBH' show.
