Sheetal Dance Art

Our dance studio is located in Vile Parle East, right in the Gidc Estate, area 3. It might seem like a strange place for a dance art school, being near the industrial estate, but it actually works out really well for us. We have enough space to move around without bumping into each other too much. The floors are the most important part, so we try to keep them clean and smooth for the students. You won't find any fancy mirrors with gold frames or expensive sound systems here. We use a regular music player and some big mirrors on the wall so people can see what they’re doing with their feet and hands. The air gets a bit warm when a big class is going on, but we have some fans that keep the breeze moving. People come here for all kinds of dance, mostly traditional styles but some other stuff too. It’s a place where you can come and sweat a bit while learning the steps. The neighbors are mostly workshops and small businesses, so we don't have to worry too much about the music being a bit loud in the afternoons. We aren't trying to be a world-famous academy. We just like to teach dance to the local kids and adults who want a bit of art in their lives. It’s honest work and we enjoy seeing people get better over time. It is a bit dusty sometimes, but we like it.
