Our Entrepreneurial Journey: From Passion to Profession
We started as two people who just loved to dance, often against the grain. This is the real story behind Teamdancewithfeet, and why we do what we do.
In a recent podcast, we shared our startup story and the journey of building our company. We discussed the challenges and triumphs of turning our passion for dance into a successful business, including our expansion into corporate choreography.
Here, Deepanker talks about the early days and the challenges he faced. People used to laugh at his passion for dance, but his determination to learn and grow as an artist never wavered.
Following your passion isn't always easy. Simpy shares her personal story of facing family challenges when she started her career in the glamorous, late night world of choreography.
About Our Entrepreneurial Journey
Building a choreography business in Delhi wasn't just about learning steps; it was about convincing families and staying true to our art when people mocked us. If you have ever felt like your passion didn't fit the expected path, you will connect with our story. We didn't start with a team; we started with a stubborn belief that dance is for everyone, not just the trained professionals.
When we started, people used to look at us differently. Deepanker faced judgment for his love of dance, and I dealt with the classic 'late-night work' conversation with my family. We didn't have a playbook. We just knew that dance, at its core, isn't about technical perfection. It is about how you feel when the music starts.
That philosophy drives everything we do now, whether we are handling wedding choreography for a big fat Indian wedding in Delhi or running a corporate team building session for a multinational office. We learned that to build a business, you have to be more than just a dancer; you have to be a planner, a confidant, and a mediator.
Today, we manage events ranging from intimate sangeet nights to massive corporate flash mob performances. We have moved from being misunderstood to being the people you call when you want to make an event fun. Our dance workshops are designed to be inclusive, breaking down the intimidating barriers often associated with professional choreography.
If you are planning an event, you are not just hiring a choreographer. You are getting the SimPanker vibe—the energy that comes from over 15 years of navigating this industry together. We take the stress out of your event, handling the music, the formations, and the last-minute jitters, so you can just enjoy your moment.
