    Light of Dance Academy is not just a Dance Class, it makes us the part of the family. I feel blessed to learn from the most loving and most supportive dance teacher Shalini, who makes sure we learn and grow as a dancer and also as a person.

    Our nine-year-old enjoys her Kathak classes here—Ms Shaal is warm, patient, and give an honest feedback at the end of the class. She supports her as she learns. We’ve seen such beautiful growth in my daughter’s rhythm, grace, and love for dance since joining this studio.
