About Us

Founded in 2017 by Debapriya Das,  Nrityakosh House of Classical and Contemporary belly dance was established in Bangalore as a school that specialises in folk and classical dances from the Middle East. Since its inception, the school has been in the forefront of belly dance community and movement in Bangalore. It is one of the fastest growing schools in South India with active enrolment of 200 students in the current year. 

​

Over 8 years the school has been running, Nrityakosh has fostered a community of belly dancers and belly dance enthusiasts across Bangalore making Middle Eastern Classical and Folk Dances accessible and inclusive to everyone. Debapriya envisions the school to be a space where not only Middle Eastern dances can be practised as a community engagement but also a space for guidance and education for young individuals who want to take up this art form as a profession.
