About Anjali
Anjali Vettom is a South Asian dancer, choreographer, and teacher in Philadelphia. She teaches many styles including Bollywood Fusion Hip-Hop, BollyBaddies, and Semi-Classical. With over 20 years of dance experience, her dance journey began at the Kalashri School of Arts where she was classically trained in Bharatnatyam and Kuchipudi by Guru Smt. Bina Menon for almost 10 years.
She became the choreographer of her collegiate dance team for 4 years, captain for 3 years, and the main lead for 2 years with a win at her team's 1st dance competition in 2018.
She began her studies at Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine and moved to Philadelphia in 2021. Shocked by the lack of Desi dance classes in the area, she made a video looking for like-minded individuals who missed dancing and wanted to build a South Asian dance community. It resonated with many people and she sold out her 1st dance workshop in September 2023.
She has since taught 20 classes in Philadelphia with over 250 individual students; and performed at various events such as the Philadelphia Zoo for Holi and the Philly Dance Fitness' World Flavor's Show.
She also offers custom solo/group choreography for private events and custom mixes. She plans on expanding dance classes to New York in NYC and Rockland County. She will soon be offering in-person/online one-to-one sessions. Her dance community truly means the world to her and she hopes you join and continue to build the South Asian Dance community.
