Dadbhawala, Bhumika
Bhumika currently
works with Yahoo Inc, as an Account Manager for Online
Advertising. She has always had a passion for
dancing. She can spend hours watching Bollywood dances,
hip-hop, bhangra, basically any dancing, but, she would rather be
on the floor dancing! For her, dancing is art, culture, language,
relaxation, and much more because when she dances, she feels
like she is in a whole new world. It is an outlet for her to
express herself without holding back. Her mom and
sister introduced her to dancing and their support has taken
her from participating in dance competitions to culture shows
and now to Tattva. She has always been a handful for her
parents, she means they did manage to lose her 3 times before the age
of 12, but none the less, they found her and kept her dancing!

Mudra was an amazing experience as it taught her how to be a part of a
team. She truly enjoyed the experience because of the great friends she
made. Through Mudra she learned Indian fusion (Classical and folk)
combination.
Dixit, Shruti

also been trained in classical Kathak with Pampa Academy. Additionally,
she has trained and performed with Naach for over 6 years. She has

ears.
