Devi Snigdha Muppala says, ‘Dance to me is meditation, therapy an instant mood lifter’
Saurabh’s wife Devi has been fond of dance since an early age. Devi revealed that she always participated in dance programs at her school and college.
Further, even though she covers various types of dances, she specializes in Kathak, a prominent ancient Indian classical dance.
Her official Instagram page is filled with videos of her dance. In some of her videos, she also appeared dancing with her husband, Saurabh Netravalkar, and other family members.
She dances to celebrate happiness and does it professionally, having performed on huge cultural dance platforms in the US.
On April 10, 2022, Devi shared an Instagram post wearing a traditional dress and announced her performance on a big stage.
She wrote, “First Kathak stage performance. Long way to go! The best part is the journey, not the destination! 💃.“
Despite living in the US, she has been strongly following her passion to become a great Kathak dancer.
Further, she promotes her tradition worldwide by performing her cultural dance on another country’s stage.
Similarly, Devi also runs a BollyX dance-fitness program in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, US, where they combine dynamic choreography with the hottest music worldwide.
BollyX’s dance-fitness program was also featured on ABC’s Shark Tank, where all the judges come on stage and do the Kathak.
Devi Snigdha has been running the program for over five years. On her dance program’s official website, she mentioned that dancing is more than a passion for herself.
She said, “Dance to me is meditation, therapy, an instant mood lifter and I would love to share this sense of joy with as many people as possible.”
