There are literally hundreds of schools and teachers in Mumbai so you have to decide what you are looking for in a dance style, teacher etc. If you are considering classical training then there are various different options, often the best are not in Mumbai, but if it's Bollywood training you want then Mumbai is the best place to learn and also get exposure - but you must remember that the competition is very tough out there. If you have had no training whatsoever then I would suggest you get some training before you go out there, that way you have a clearer idea of what style you want to learn etc. Hope that helps!

Hi Aisha,
I'm in mumbai at the moment. As Snehal said the competition for Bollywood is very tough (not just to join Bollywood, but even to join the classes!) - its really important that you decide what you want to do..
You need to dedicate at least 1-3months there in order to gain maximum benefits too.
If you are interested in Kathak then I know of a very good teacher. E-mail me if interested.

Try Shiamak Davar's institute - it teaches modern dance. Arshad Warsi and Shahid Kapur used to be insructors there, and they are pretty good bollywood dancers...

Hi Aishia & Pankaj
I read everybody, I believe Shaimak Davar is the safe and best bet for any new comer in Mumbai, which has sevarl branches as well across the city including suburbs.

Wish you luck for modern Indian Dancing Lessons...

Hi,

i just came back about 3 weeks ago from a 6 month course with Roshan Taneja (www.roshantaneja.com).

Our dance instructor was an industry choreographer called Krishna, he was very good and people speak of him with great respect. If you like I can pass on his number.

Also, most people do Shaimak's classes, but they are pretty expensive. And you have to start on a programee from a basic course, and progress from there.

Hope that helps.

Hi all!
This is the first time I'm using this site- I've only just discovered it!!

Basically wanted to know if anyone knows of any 'crash' kathak courses that are available either in mumbai or delhi??? I'm only going there for 6 months max from the UK. Also, my Hindi is pretty appalling- how difficult do you reckon it will be for me??

Hope you'll be able to help- and all are well!

zena I learnt from her about 10-11 yrs back. I have not been in touch with her. though i can possibley trace her details she teaches bharat natyam not khatak. though she wont' be doing any crash courses. u can get extar lessons from her is she is willing to do it.i will try to trace her through old contacts and get back to u.

if u want to learn khatak then do what nikita says in the post above or mumbai is the best place to be.
