Dance Styles

Seven styles. One technique.

Aangan teaches a range of styles from Indian classical to contemporary, structured around solid technique. Different styles are introduced at different ages and levels.

Classical & Fusion

The foundation styles.

Built on discipline and musicality. Students learn these in the Foundation and Performance groups.

Bollywood

Film dance, choreography and music videos. The style most students encounter first — fun, recognizable and visually cinematic.

Kathak

North Indian classical dance. Footwork, rhythm cycles, and storytelling. For students who want classical depth.

Semiclassical

Fusion of classical technique with contemporary expression. The middle ground between tradition and movement.

Nepali Folk

Traditional Nepali dances rooted in culture and ritual. Taught especially to students from Sikkim and the region.

Contemporary & Special

For expression and storytelling.

Taught at higher levels or in workshops. These styles emphasize personality and individual interpretation.

Contemporary

Free movement, improvisation, and personal expression. No rules except your own body and the music.

Hip Hop

Rhythm, street style and attitude. For students who want energy, groove and urban choreography.

Choreography

Not a style to learn — the skill to create one. Teaching students to build, edit and stage their own pieces.

How styles fit the groups

Not everything at once.

Each age group focuses on the styles that suit their level. But the choice of what comes next is yours — students ask for what interests them, and we build from there.
