Best Indian Dance Classes & Studios in Philadelphia Metro Area

I have been associated with ArchanaTai and her dance school for over 10+ years through my daughter who learns Kathak with her. Typically, I am a person of few words but feel compelled to write this review as my daughter is planning to finish her B.A. in Kathak soon. I have no doubt that Kathak and especially association with Tai is a big reason behind my daughters confidence, self-identity, musicality and pursuit of excellence in whatever she undertakes. Tai doesn’t just teach kathak, she imbibes in her students values of hard work, attention to detail, consistency and diligence. She takes effort to explain history of Kathak, meaning behind each lesson and shared stories of our cultural heritage. Tai uses the right balance between tough love and tenderness to ensure her students achieve their full potential. It is no surprise that the learning in her classroom goes beyond Kathak and makes its mark in academic, physical and spiritual worlds. If you are looking for serious Kathak training, you cannot find a better teacher and human being that you want your child to associate with and learn from. THANK YOU Tai for your wisdom and heart, and all the sweet things that you do. We are thankful to have you here in NJ!

I love this institute because of it's kind teachers and graceful dances!!!!! This is in no way a bad place!!!!

My experience is very good . I get detailed attention from.Guru Archana Her focus is so much on grammar, strength. Body alignment and riyaaaz I am loving it and best part is that she does everything as many as times till you get it People might not like her for being strict with Riyaaz but that’s what classical art form is all about I love her , she has knowledge depth of an ocean I am always excited / little nervous but prepared for her class . Wish I had found her long ago

Tai, the BMM show was fantastic, I loved every bit of it! Your ardhanareshwar was mesmerizing. Ghunghat and panihari were also very powerful. The girls’ performances interspersed with your powerful ones perfectly struck a beautiful balance. We are so fortunate to have you here and have you as our guru. We are immensely blessed. The awe of watching your shows has not diminished for me despite watching them up close for almost two decades now.

Hi Tai, It was a wonderful performance at the Rhythm of Life 2022as always.... You never cease to surprise me, rather amaze me ,and every time I come back impressed with the depth and breadth and range of your performance and talent. You outdo yourselves every time we all see you, in many respects. I remember the annual show of 2019, as I remember other shows of yours that I have attended and watched. I could go on and on about the artistic talent, the creativity, the choreography, the attention to detail and the combination of originality and choice of compositions that you have taken from the legends. You would have heard about all this from others too.. What impressed me also are the steps that you are taking to build the next level of talent for your academy and laying foundations of a lasting institution that can scale and grow to multiple levels.. I particularly liked the gesture to honor all faculties and PareshJi in particular. It is rare that an individual who is an excellent performer in his or her field is also good at managing, organizing, and institution building. This combination of multiple talents within you, along with organizational capabilities, and the teaching and institution building abilities is an exceptional combination seen rarely in creative artists. We feel thankful and blessed to have you as Guru for our kids... Our prayers for the continued growth of your art, craft and for the growth of this wonderful institution Archana Arts is promising to be

I love the way Archana tai teaches… she has a warm attitude towards all her students and spends a great amount of time focusing on each and every one of them. Truly the best kathak teacher running one of the most prestigious kathak academies.

It’s been a long journey with Archana Arts. The best experience so far. Tai is the best teacher to have around the kids. Literally I can see my daughter growing up so gracefully and elegantly under her care.

Archana Tai is the true Guru. There isn’t anyone else who has the strength, dedication, and in-depth vision like Tai does. She focuses on grooming every single student and brings out the beauty in them. She is so precise in her choreographies and even while teaching, she makes sure to explain everything to her students. We don’t just learn how to move our bodies; we learn all the terms, and the meaning behind what we perform, and the science and math behind what we do. Tai makes it her responsibility to explain what we’re learning and how it connects to us at that very moment. Through Tai’s guidance, we have been fortunate to have the opportunity to perform on many stages and partake in many workshops and events. I have been a student of Tai’s for 9 years now, and I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to learn from her and to have her as my Guru.

Archana Arts is the best dance school for learning Kathak. If anybody wants to genuinely learn Kathak and hone the skills of the dance form, Archana Arts is the place. This school has a detailed curriculum, all the way from Beginners to Master’s level. Archana Arts embodies the rich culture of Indian heritage. Students are taught so much more than how to just move their bodies in rhythm. This school focuses on gracefulness and truly grooming the students into beautiful dancers. The knowledge of Archana Arts is vast and deep. It encompasses the technical side as well as the Bhav (expression) side of Kathak. This is the activity which helps your physical health and mental health. Anyone can learn this art form regardless of age, gender, or ethnicity.

As a student of six years at Archana Nrityalaya, I can proudly say that getting the opportunity to learn from Archana Tai has been one of the greatest blessings of my entire life. In fact, the impact of her tutelage, both in and outside of the classroom, cannot be quantified into the five stars of this rating. I highly doubt that it could be counted in thousands of them either. When I began learning with Archana Tai in sixth grade, I wasn’t very happy. Kathak dance had so many guidelines, so many rules. The dance required so much effort and discipline, and with Archana Tai as my guru, I had to strive for perfection. And I definitely was not disciplined or motivated enough to do it at that age, and it was because of my drawbacks that I almost considered quitting my tutelage. Today, I proudly say that continuing was one of the greatest decisions I’ve ever made. The rules that I eventually internalized define my character today, in both dance and society. Every single lesson in her studio is test of the decorum she has taught and continues to teach me: Do I appear confident and strong every time I move my body to the rhythm? How about my hair, my attire? Have I dressed to succeed in class? And lest we forget, how am I reciting poems and compositions? Is my performance acceptable, or exemplary? Most importantly, how do I respond to my critiques? Do I dare to retaliate out of sheer impulse, or accept my mistakes and respect both my progress and my teacher’s wishes and try again? I face the questions every single day when I return, and try to make the right decisions as Tai has taught me. Yes, Tai can be strict. She pays attention to the nitty-gritty details, and strives for intense perfection. She may break down her students to begin, but rebuilds then into future dancers and leaders. Her endless care for her students is reflected in every single conversation she has with her students. These attributes that distinguish her from other teachers and academies. The schooling that we students receive here is arguably beyond any other Kathak education we can receive. Here, we learn to push the boundaries the boundaries of ourselves and dance, so that we can do the same in life. Thank you, Archana Tai. For everything you have taught me and will continue to to teach me both inside and outside of your classroom.

I love the way Archana tai teaches… she has a warm attitude towards all her students and spends a great amount of time focusing on each and every one of them. Truly the best kathak teacher running one of the most prestigious kathak academies.

They say your Guru is your ‘Marg Darshak’, so for a classical dance form like Kathak, it was an obvious choice for us to go to Archana Tai. This is the perfect place for letting your child’s childhood flourish while they learn this beautiful dance form. Each child is given individual attention to make sure, they have the right pronounciation, Bhav, posture etc. We are seeing our beautiful little girls turn into graceful dancers with each passing year. And you know that you made the right choice when your child is begging you for summer camp after a full rigorous year of the Kathak. Archana Nrityalaya is not a dance school but an extended family for us.

I have been associated with ArchanaTai and her dance school for over 10+ years through my daughter who learns Kathak with her. Typically, I am a person of few words but feel compelled to write this review as my daughter is planning to finish her B.A. in Kathak soon.

THANK YOU Tai for your wisdom and heart, and all the sweet things that you do. We are thankful to have you here in NJ!

Archana Nrityalaya has been an absolute godsend for us; my daughter has been learning Kathak for the past four years under the tutelage of Guru Archana Joglekar, and absolutely loves it. Tai, as she is fondly called by all her students, puts her heart and soul into making sure that all her students learn this beautiful art - she will continually challenge the students to stretch and improve their dance skills. Serious students only!

My daughter Vaani has been learning dance ( semi classical and contemporary ) from Nritya creations from past 2 years. Her teachers Ms Serita and Ms Aayushma are excellent and very creative . We can see a lot of improvement in her dance with the technique used by the teachers. This has helped them to win competitions too!

Our daughter has trained in western dancing for several years. However, her love of Bollywood songs and movies led to her affinity with eastern dancing. She didn’t want to focus on just Bollywood dancing but wanted to pay homage to her South Indian roots and incorporate some form of classical dancing along with western dance techniques. Nritya Creations (NC)offered just that, an Indo-Contemporary class that incorporated Classical, Lyrical, and Jazz. NC and its teachers have provided a wonderful outlet for our daughter to perfect her technique and learn the art form. She has become even more confident and poised over the past 3 years, all the while having fun.

Had a great experience with learning at Nritya Creations.

Nritya Creations is an amazing dance institute that has taught me so much over the past 10 years. I love the teachers and the community I am surrounded in every practice, competition and recital. I am incredibly proud to be part of this team.

I'm taking the adult dance class with Shreya and she is very good with the instructions and help us move with our pace. Totally loving it.

Ms.Shreya is an amazing dancer, choreographer and teacher. She spends time explaining each and every step very nicely. Love her classes!

The show was amazing! Hats off to Archana Tai for working so hard to put this show together and to make it the best it can be. I had a guest from India who thoroughly enjoyed the performances and following are her own words: I would not have imagined to witness 3 and 1/2 hours of a pure classical show in the USA, which I have not even seen in India. The show was fabulous.

Year after year, the level of the performers keeps getting better. It is enthralling to see the progression of the little ones blossoming into such a fine dancers. But it would not have been possible if they had not find the Guru like Archana Tai. These kids are so blessed to have such Kathak legend like her in their life. And as the parents we are fortunate too. She and her faculty show students how far they have to go and what life long commitment to the art form means.

When you cannot decide which one of your favorite from an evening full of classical dances, you know that its an evening thoroughly enjoyed. Be it the little girls just stepping into Kathak or the beautiful girls who have learning this beautiful art for years. Of course, the cherry on the top is the back story presented behind each composition and your relationship to it.

I have seen several recitals over last 10 years thanks to my daughter's involvement. Archanaji's commitment, dedication, involvement in every single detail and the effortless ease with which you seem to make it all come together (though I know it can't be easy at all) is tremendously worthy of appreciation.

The annual show, 'Rhythm of Life' is just REMARKABLE, DISTINCT, MESMERIZING and it was so much more that few words cannot describe it. All of my family who came to see the show were just amazed to see such professional level performances by all the girls. Especially some of the short stories and your philanthropy towards Kathak came out good through your

Archanaji's passion, knowledge and art really shows as you watch every student as they perform! Coal needs to be put under pressure to become diamonds and the kids and their parents really get it!! The structure, the sequence, the pace, the selection, your performance and the culmination pieces - everything was outstanding and a visual treat.

I have been dancing with Nritya Creations since I was 9 years old, and attending the Bharatantyam and Indo-contemporary classes have truly allowed me to grow into the dancer I have become today. The emphasis that is placed on having flawless technique in every dance form has been especially helpful, and the lessons that I have learned throughout the years is something I know I will carry with me in the future, as well. The close-knit relationship between the teachers and students also creates an amazing culture in the studio. I can't thank all the teachers enough for everything they have done!

I’ve been learning at Nritya creations and enjoying all the different fusion styles from Semiclassical to bolly hip hop to indo contemporary for the past many years.I have developed as a dancer much more because of exposure to varied dance forms. Ms.Melanie’s style and demeanor are beyond par and I also enjoy Ms.Angelina’s exciting choreography which challenges us an advanced competition team each class. This has helped my cheer practice too by enhancing my focus in the dance routine part and being part of an amazing team of kids and inspiring professional teachers!

These teachers are really experienced and helped me learn so much. Very good choreography as well.

Well Experienced dance professionals for Indian classical dances program

My kids love their teacher at this dance academy in Edison. It helps them open up and have confidence in parties

My daughter has been going to Nritya Creations for 7 years. We absolutely love the quality of the teaching. The teachers are very experienced and disciplined. The transformation I have seen in my daughters dancing is just amazing. I highly recommend this institute for all types of dance.

My daughter is learning Kathak from Mrs. Ruee from last three years! Mrs.Ruee is a great teacher and my daughter enjoys and thoroughly loves her classes. Mrs.Ruee is so patient and connects so well with kids. All the kids in her class love her.

My daughter has been learning kathak here for about 4 years. The teachers are great...they are dedicated, very professional and care about their students. Ms. Bhumi (kathak teacher) is one of the best teachers! Would recommend to anyone who wants to learn dance!!

Nritya Creations is an amazing dance school, I would highly recommend. My older daughter learnt Bharatnatayam for over 7 yrs and my younger daughter is learning Kathak for the past 4 years. The teachers are exceptionally well qualified and take great pride in teaching the technique while inculcating the discipline to thrive. I love that they get to take part in several competitions and performances throughout the year, which helps them showcase their talent at a bigger and wider platform. This also helps create bonds and friendships that will last a lifetime. We are forever indebted to Meena and Nritya creations to instill the love for classical indian dance

My daughter learns kathak with Nritya creations for more than 3 years now. The teacher Bhoomi makes it fun for students and increases their interest in the dance form. Highly recommend.

My daughter has had a wonderful experience learning Kathak from Ms. Bhoomi and performing with Nritya Creations. Ms. Bhoomi is talented and genuinely a fantastic coach/guru for young girls learning a skill and growing and developing their talents. Her gentle and nurturing approach to teaching and guiding the girls during their recital and performance reveals an immense level of self-discipline, patience, confidence, talent, and leadership. My daughter cannot stop praising her experience with Ms. Bhoomi and the opportunities she has been given through Nritya Creations. We look forward to seeing how her path progresses with the correct environment and teachers who bring out the passion and discipline to strive and achieve greater heights, and the people who inspire a love for culture and the art forms. Thank you so much for providing this wonderful experience and opportunity to my daughter and the community.

My daughter Saumya is learning kathak here and is privileged having a great teacher Ms Bhoomi. Ms Bhoomi is a very talented and very sweet. She is experienced and knowledgeable. We were searching a good kathak teacher from last year and finally our search is complete. thank you so much for all your efforts and support

My daughter is learning Bharathanatiyam in Nritya creations in 6th year.Mr.Damir is her guru. Rarely we see the teachers who are friendly with kids at the same time control over class. Kids does not loose the interest to learn. Mr.Damir is the one who has complete control, consistent and I do see his passion in Bharathanatiyam when he teaches kids. I strongly recommend him as great teacher.

I have been a student at Nritya Creations for 9+ years now and I’ve loved dancing here ever since I started. The teachers here are excellent and they have taught me so much throughout the years. I learned ballet, bharatanatyam, fusion, jazz, hip hop, and more! This dance studio is amazing and I would definitely recommend Nritya Creations to anyone looking to learn dance.

I have been dancing with Nritya Creations for most of my life. This school has allowed me to blossom as a dancer. Without Nritya Creations and the teachers here I would not be as strong of a dancer as I am today. I am forever grateful for the experiences that I have received and will continue to receive through Nritya Creations. These teacher help you to push yourself in and out of the studio; they have partaken in interviews with me and written me recommendation letters without which I would not be able to pursue my passions.

Both of my daughters have taken lessons at Nritya and they have not only learned various forms of dance, but have also gained confidence while doing so. The teachers are fantastic, I would highly recommend this dance studio.

Raiya is now 14 and she has more confidence in front of an audience than most adults as far as performing whether it be a dance, acting, singing. It stems from an early start with Nritya Creations. The teachers are dedicated and educate the children and build confidence to perform and execute in front of an audience. We believe that this aspect is under appreciated but really impacts the children. Thanks to Nritya, Raiya has built more and more self confidence through the years and it has impacted her in school and in her life. Many people have come to us as parents and asked us about her ability to speak in public or act in front of 500 people and we do share that part of it comes from her experience with Nritya

Wonderful performances by students and staff at their Naach 360 recital ! A high caliber school which I highly recommend!

My daughter has been taking lessons for about 8 years and I took lessons as well for about 3 years or so. Teachers are excellent, committed to growth of students as dancers. Tatyana takes personal interest in each student, has been very patient correcting mistakes minor (and not minor). Excellent dance choreography as well.

My daughters were learning Bollywood style at the Edison ( Iselin) Center... I loved the way the classes were conducted... Very professional teacher ( Ms Kena). My girls danced with more confidence and zeal. The Admin staff is also very cooperative. I also saw classical form bring taught there and they were good. Overall a good experience

My daughter has been going to this academy for few years now, and over that time period I saw great improvement in her dance. She was also able to view some aspects of our culture through this academy. Their dances are delightful and filled with technique. I highly recommend Nritya Creations.

One of the best dance school I have ever come across. We have been associated with the Nritya Creations for nore than 2 years now. My daughter has been part of both the bollywood dance as well as the Bharadhanatiyam class. Especially the foundation techniques taught for Bharatanatiyam is really mind blowing. I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to Damir Tasmagambetov Sir for the sincere and dedicated way of teaching the small ones with high patience and outstanding techniques. For a classical dance the foundation is most important and I feel he is doing it to highest satisfaction with his excellent talent and outstanding teaching skills. Naach 360 2019 was well organised and an excellent way to get the students exposed to high end performances. I wish Meena Basu Nag and all the teachers the very best and wish the Nritya Creations Academy of dance progress further with flying colors.

I have been a student at Nritya Creations for 3 years now. All the teachers are excellent at their respective jobs and very professional. The students and teacher bonding makes the dance very enjoyable. The entire staff has great amount of knowledgeable in their dances. They work on your techniques and help you improve. In my 3 years, I have grown to love the dance and always look forward to learn more. I would definitely recommend Nritya Creations.

Nirtya Creations cares about the Dance and culture. They are bringing back life to the traditional dance along with fusion of latest dance. The professionalism they show to their jobs, the respect towards their dance, the care they take for each and every student are very much appreciated.

Im so thankful to Nritya Dance academy for the in honor in working with one of the best choreographers for my surprise reception dance for my husband . Nidhi, you were amazing and I’m so happy to have worked with you on creating such a beautiful dance piece for my husband on our reception day ! Thank you so so very much for everything . I would highly recommend to anyone looking to do a surprise wedding dance for your special day !!

I have been dancing at Nritya Creations for 8 years now and have been trained in many different dancing styles. The teachers and staff at NC are dedicated and work hard to help their students to excel. The dances that we do are over the top and a lot of hard work is put into the choreography. Dancing at this school is a great experience and I will highly recommend Nritya Creations to everyone.

Great experience.... my daughter build more self confidence... and she loves it…

I have been a student at Nritya Creations for 9 years. I have throughly enjoyed my experience thus far and will most definitely continue to. Mrs. Tatyana is a phenomenal teacher and I have flourished as a dancer under her watch and support.

Nritya Creations is a reputable dance school with top notch teachers and a focus on quality. We have been with the school for almost 7 years and my daughter has learned a great deal. We would recommend the NC team any day!

I highly recommend this school for children and adults. My grandchildren attend this school. The performances are beautiful, well choreographed and perfectly synchronized. Teachers are brilliant and all well qualified and are passionate about teaching. My grandkids have developed a love of dance and cultural arts at this school. They enjoy performing on stage at the various cultural events.

My daughter has been with Nritya Creations since past 7 years and its been an amazing journey so far. Teachers are talented, dedicated and highly trained. They focus mainly on technique , creative choreography and provide ample opportunities to showcase the talent of our kids. My daughter is part of the Performing company and have participated in various competitions and shows. I strongly recommend Nritya Creations ...

Damir sir is very dedicated and his way of teaching is very helpful to kids .

Ms Tatyana (teaches Bharatnatyam) is one of the best teachers with tremendous patience and dedication towards students.

Very innovative choreography. So much fun to watch the beautiful performances!

I've been a dancer for 7 years and this place is my favorite. The environment is friendly, the teachers have great choreo, and everyone is welcoming.

Learning dance has been fun at Nritiya Creations and I love the studio!

Great school and teachers who teach with lot of focus and discipline.

I am so grateful to have been a part of Nritya Creations that takes art of dance so seriously. Teachers are super talented who work on your technique. They focus on your mistakes and provide proper guidance to overcome it. There is such a wonderful balance of disipline, fun and an extraordinary self confidence in each and every dancer.

This dance school is one of the best in the area. I have brought my daughter to many other schools over the past 4 years but none of them have shown as much improvement as Nritya Creations. My daughter has so much fun in class and the teachers also work with me to help my child improve. The teachers are driven to create the best dancers and will go out of their way to help the students learn and grow.

Nritya Creations is a fantastic dance school. Teachers are extremely experienced and educated. It offers a wide variety of classes for people of all ages. Nritya Creations is the perfect place to study dance for anyone who is interested.

Nritya Creations is truly devoted to its students. Staff focus on equipping students with a strong foundation of technique and theory while cultivating their creativity within the art form. Students produce strong artistic work at the end of the school year, and it is a delight to watch!

Nritya Creations is a great institution for learning various styles of Indian dance as well as Western dance forms. Staff focuses on technique and making sure your child really learns the art form in a disciplined and structured manner!! Would highly recommend without any question!

Nritya Creations is the most fantastic and nurturing dance school in the tri-state area. They have one thing and that is quality like no other dance school in New Jersey. Teachers are extremely experienced, knowledgeable, and have given us students the passion we have for dance as an art form. I have been attending classes in Bharatanatyam, Western Ballet, Bollywood Fusion, Jazz, and Hip-Hop for the past 10 years and I enjoy participating in shows with the Nritya Creations Performing Company. Dancing here has given me a whole new passion and love for this art form. I have met many of my closest friends here and everyone, including the teachers and staff, are caring and friendly.

Nritya Creations creative fusion choreography is what makes them a unique dance school. They truly emphasize technique in all styles of dance to make well rounded dancers. I would highly recommend this studio to anyone passionate about dance.

have been with NC for 8 years now and not only do they focus on strength and technique but also the passion and emotion of the art. “Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion.”- Martha Graham. Every style and technique is taught with precision while also bringing out emotion and meaning through expression. This is not your ordinary dance studio. It is much more. With these key qualities that dancers need, NC is the best dance school/performing company around!

Nritya Creations Academy is the right place for all those who wish to explore and enjoy dance !

Nritya creations has been an excellent dance academy for both of my girls. They have been able to participate in multiple competitions and an annual recital. Each year they learn new dances and improve their dancing ability. It has truly been a great experience!

If you are looking for a premier dance school or performing company, your search stops here. This is the only fusion dance school in New Jersey that not only focuses on teaching true dance technique but also teaches its members how to be well-rounded, versatile, and professional dancers. I have been dancing for over 20 years and this was the perfect place for me to not only continue my professional dance experience, but also to grow as a dancer and choreographer. I would highly recommend this award-winning school for any dancer, young or old!

Over the course of my association with Nritya Creations Academy of Dance and its performing company, I have always been impressed with the vibrancy, creativity, and classical foundation of both its choreographies and its teachings. Dancers and students are exposed to and rigorously trained in diverse forms of dance, and the attention and love given to each movement are evident in wonderful performances. This academy has created a supportive, welcoming, and challenging environment for all students.

I have been dancing at Nritya Creations for 4 years and I instantly felt like family! In the past years I have grown so much as a dancer and Nritya Creations has made a huge impact on my life. I then joined the performing company where I got to perform at so many amazing places and with so many amazing dancers! If you like the art of dance, make sure you join Nritya Creations
