About Live2dance

Our sole objective is to multiply smiles through our infectious energetic dance routines and promote Bollywood and Indian culture across the nation. Live2Dance will appeal to people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, looking for creative self-expression, exercise and/or social opportunities through dance.

About Deepali
Deepali has been dancing since she was born. Rumor has it, at 5 days old, she was the youngest dancer to shake it to the tunes of Bollywood.
Dance is an integral part of her evolution. Born into an Army family, she was brought up across India which gave her the opportunity to imbibe flavors of varying cultures, different societies and art into her dancing.
Having been trained in various dance forms, performing all over India with Shiamak Davar Institute of Performing Arts, training hundreds of adults and kids over the years in Ottawa and now Seattle, she is convinced that dance has the power to create a stress-free, and united community. A strong believer of karma, Deepali is on a mission to foster a sense of community through her dances and use dance as a medium to raise funds for charitable causes. Deepali is determined to transform people’s lives through the process of learning to dance in a fun and addictive environment.
