My Story
Namaskara! Sneha here. My Ma and Seenanna shaped me, especially when Appa said, 'Be the best tea seller if you sell tea.' Dropped science, found dance. I’m a retrophile, obsessed with old art and temples. My work is my Gurus’ blessings, my folk dance book 'Nrutya Beru' is surreal. Dance is my prayer, my conversation with the universe. Single mom life gets lonely sometimes, but these stories and dances keep me alive and kicking.
My Work
Choreography, Acting & Storytelling - I mix choreography, acting, and storytelling - it’s never just one thing with me.
Women-Led Comedy Plays - I perform paisaa vasool (worth your money) comedy/satire plays with my friends. Real, raw, and hilarious.
Interactive Storytelling Sessions - I do lively storytelling for kids, like 'Thimmakka ajji kathegallu', making stories come alive.
Karnataka Folk Dance Research - I direct Bhramari Dance and dive deep into Karnataka folk dance roots. My book 'Nrutya Beru' came from this.
Summer Theatre Workshops for Kids - Vacation time means theatre workshops for kids - acting, fun, and friendships all rolled in.
