## About Event & Show Choreography

### What Drives My Choreography

After 25 years in dance, I still get goosebumps before every show. For me, choreography is not just about nailing steps - it’s about shaping stories and moods. I want the crowd to feel something, whether it’s at a massive concert or your sangeet that feels like a full-on awards show.

### Shaping Big Moments

I've worked on everything from Amit Trivedi’s Indradhanush concerts to my own studio’s 'Manch' annual showcase. Taking a music composer’s vision or a family’s big night, I craft performances that fill huge venues - and bring the energy up. My approach is about making every show feel lived-in, not just rehearsed.

### From Idea to Stage

- We start with your vision, whether you want drama, fun, or something totally hatke (different)
- I build the flow and movements, shaping the whole vibe
- My team and I run rehearsals with everyone - pros, families, corporate squads, whoever’s stepping on stage
- Before showtime, we polish every detail so the performance pops

### What We Do

- Large scale sangeet choreography - think big, bold, and super personal
- Bollywood musical stage direction for concerts and studio showcases
- Public festivals and corporate event dance production
- Indo-contemporary performance for music videos, retreats, and more

### Our Style

Our team’s got range - Bollywood, Indian fusion, folk (Garba is my jam!), Bollyhop, and more. Whatever you imagine for your event, we’ll make it absolutely jhakhas (awesome).

### My story

Started with folk, fell for the stage, and never left. Twenty-five years moving, creating, teaching - that’s me. Tarang Studio is my happy place, especially during 'Manch' season. Sangeet madness, studio chaos, and finding my sukoon (peace) in nature - all part of the ride. Forty and still grooving, I’m just here for the next dance, the next story, the next big smile.

### My work

- **All Dance Services Under One Roof**: We choreograph sangeet, offer Bollywood beginners dance class, Indian fusion batches, and corporate wellness dance workshops.
- **Jhakhas Sangeet Choreography**: We make sure your family sangeet is full of fun, drama, and moments you’ll actually remember.
- **Bollywood & Fusion Classes for All**: Never danced before? Doesn’t matter. Join our batches, shake a leg, and let your inner diva loose.
- **Manch Student Showcase**: Two months, lots of sweat, one epic performance. The spotlight is yours at Manch.
- **Corporate Wellness Workshops**: Dance sessions for teams to de-stress, connect, and maybe rule the world a little.
