No matter your experience level, we are here to help you build a strong foundation in dance technique, core strength and grace.
Moksha Arts Journey
A solid base is always needed to excel in any form of art. Our classes focus on training our dancers in proper technique while building strength, core, and grace in each individual. This groundwork lies at the root of any established dancer. Through their years at Moksha Arts, a strong emphasis is placed on learning intricate footwork along with elegant hand gestures, called mudras. Building a strong foundation begins with the very first class and each class is strategically created to teach kids the fundamentals of dance while having fun. Aspects of Bollywood, folk and classical dance are incorporated each semester to help students become a versatile dancer. Classes are broken up by age group and level to provide special attention to all kids.
Bollywood
Our Bollywood classes remain popular with students ages 4 to Adults.
We recommend all beginner students to start their dance journey by enrolling in a Bollywood dance class. These classes are a fusion of Indian classical, folk and Bollywood dance steps to the sounds of popular Bollywood music. A special emphasis is put on beat recognition, body movement, learning proper hand gestures (mudras) and building stamina.
Folk
India is the home of diverse cultures and traditions. Moksha Arts encourages all students to extend their knowledge of Indian dance by introducing them to various styles of folk dance from the different states of India. Throughout their journey at Moksha Arts, students get opportunities to train in Bhangra + Giddha (Punjab), Raas + Garba (Gujarat), Ghoomar (Rajasthan), Lavani (Maharashtra), and many more.
Classical
All Moksha Arts teachers are trained in one or more forms of Classical Dance. We encourage our students to enroll in a form of classical dance to deepen their study and practice. Moksha Arts currently offers Bharatanatyam and Kathak.
Adult Bollywood
Our adult bollywood classes bring together an eclectic
mix of cardio movements with easy to follow traditional Bollywood dance steps to maximize total body toning. You’re guaranteed to break a sweat as Bollywood and cardio training merge together for a great work-out.
