dance & create

 

async productions

Bringing together a community of alumni dancers from the competitive Bollywood dance circuit, Aluminati virtually trains a team of 23 dancers to produce the first in-person performance at nationals since 2019. Costumes, mixes, lighting cues, props — the whole production. Let us take you on a trip out of this world 🚀

remote connections

We might have been stuck at home during quarantine but the dancing didn’t stop. TrueLement kept our dance community alive with remote productions straight from our homes.

 

competitive performance teams

UC Berkeley Azaad was one of the most defining experience of my dance career. As a competitive team, intense practice schedules taught me more about my body and mind by pushing me to levels I didn’t know were attainable. This team gave me a family and taught me discipline and endurance.

performance teams

I joined an urban choreography performance team called TruElement. With no experience in urban beforehand, I was able to broaden my understanding of dance through this team. I learned that dance doesn’t need to have rules — movement is up to your own free expression.

 

dance projects

 

Dance projects are when creativity, vision, and choreography all come together in order to create an artistic masterpiece. With many different artistic components, each of these videos were carefully envisioned by some of the most talented people I know.

 
 

 workshops

Workshops are one of the hardest places to be performing. You don’t get hours of training, you can’t prepare until you have the choreography in muscle memory. Workshops taught me as a dancer to let go and just be okay with making mistakes — as you will see in a lot of these videos.
