Turning Dance into Fitness, Confidence & Community ✨
“For me, dance has never been just about movement — it’s about energy, expression, confidence, and bringing people together through music and movement.”
Turning Passion into Purpose & Dance into Confidence
“For me, dance has never been just about movement, it’s how I create joy, build community and express what words cannot.”
My Journey
Born and raised in the heart of Bollywood—Mumbai—dance has always been a part of who I am. I started dancing at the age of three, and what began as a childhood passion slowly grew into years of performing, learning, teaching and building communities through dance.
After moving to Canada in 2019, I wanted to bring the vibrant energy of Bollywood and global music to Ottawa in a way that felt welcoming, modern, and accessible to everyone.
Today, through Dance with Stace, my mission is to help people stay active, build confidence, express themselves and create meaningful connections through dance fitness and community.
With 12+ years of dance experience, I’ve worked with:
- children,
- adults,
- beginners,
- wedding clients,
- and people from all backgrounds and experience levels.
My style combines Bollywood-inspired movement, fusion choreography, and global beats to create classes that are energetic, beginner-friendly, confidence-building, and fun for everyone.
More Than Just Dance
Alongside dance, I’ve built my career as an engineer with a Master’s in Management.
That discipline, structure, and dedication reflect in how I teach.
But beyond all titles and careers, dance has always been something deeper for me.
It’s not just about learning choreography or perfecting steps.
It’s about:
- building confidence,
- staying active,
- expressing yourself freely,
- connecting with others,
- and discovering joy through movement.
At Dance with Stace, my goal is to create a space where people can feel energized, welcomed, and inspired while turning their passion for dance into a fun and sustainable way to stay fit and connected
