Whether I'm teaching a packed studio class or prepping for a wedding season, I believe in showing up as my authentic self, chai in hand and ready to move. People see the polished 60-second reels, but the reality is much more raw. Building a choreography business from scratch involves a lot of trial and error. This ranges from navigating physical therapy sessions to keep my body performance-ready, to sourcing the right studios in local hubs like Koramangala or Indiranagar. I don't just teach steps. I build a vibe. That's why I prioritize community feels in my workshops and focus on injury-safe movement patterns in my 1-on-1 coaching. Whether you're a bride wanting a stress-free Sangeet performance or someone looking to find their rhythm in a BollyHop session, my goal is the same: to make you feel at home in your own skin. My approach is rooted in my journey as an Indian-American creator, blending the traditional with the contemporary to keep things fun, real, and accessible. You’ll find that my teaching style is high-energy but empathetic, grounded in the belief that dance is for everyone, regardless of skill level. When we work together, we aren't just training for an event. We're creating a moment that feels authentically yours. ## About Taniya Dudani Hey, I'm Taniya.
