About Me

i am an art lover.
i believe that every individual has their own Divinity in heart and art is like prayer to enlighten our soul.
By the mean of dance, I want to get connected to other people heart to heart.

I dance mainly kathak, one of indian classical dances that i ve got trained for 7 years.
I perform Indian folk dance also and sometimes iranian dance too.

I give dance class in Seoul (near to hongdae) kathak dance / bollywood & folk dance
You are most welcome to join my class or just experience one time.

I d love to research different folk dance in local. Folk dance shows something raw and original, connected to the collective-unconsciousness of local people from their ancestors.
