Hey! Thanks for stopping by and seeing the work I do! We may know each other, after all it is a super small world….but till we meet, or have a conversation we may not know how. Till such time that our paths cross, here is a little about me.

My name is Aditi Mittal and I’m a small city girl with big dreams in my heart. After completing my schooling in Jalandhar, Punjab, India – I moved to Bengaluru to study humanities and the idli, dosa and coffee combo got me completely hooked onto this city for good. Along with the weather, and some good friends I made at Christ University, I also got lucky with the kind of dance teachers I met with and studied under.

Growing up I remember my mum sending me to practically every little dance class that was run out of a hole in the wall. Now that’s the challenge you would have to face, if you were born to a dancer mom! My mother, Nidhi Mittal, started learning Kathak at the playful age of 4 and went on to do her masters, won a gold and today owns and runs Studio Antara, Jalandhar’s most loved dance and creative art space.

They say, when the student is ready the teacher appears –  So when I moved to Bengaluru, dance came calling back to me and I found myself looking for teachers in salsa, bachata and belly dance and landed with some of the best teachers in each of these fields that transformed my learning journey from happy to awesomeness!

With over two dancing decades in my life and the ever increasing hunger for more, I seek out more and more opportunities to learn, grow, research and teach these dance forms to an audience that is willing to learn and join me on this journey. Like a honey bee, that looks only for the nectar, no matter how far, how high or long the journey is and joyfully buzzes its way to the flower, a dancer’s soul is also drawn to lifelong learning that leave it brimming with a deep sense of fulfillment and happiness.
