Preya is an amazing teacher! She is able to make the littlest of the girls love and learn! She is playful yet stern and has instilled a love for Kathak in my daughter!

Preya is a hard working dancer and teacher. I’ve been to 4 of her amazing shows and I enjoyed each and every one of them one more than the other. She is a dedicated dancer and her passion shows in every performance.

I have taken part in a few classes here and every time I come, Preya is fun and incredibly professional. She is innovative and encouraging and at the same time, teaches you how to work hard. I've seen her work with all different ages and types of dance and through all of them, her passion for creating and teaching comes through- would definitely recommend any students seeking to become a better dancer to learn here!
