Shaila Verma is a trained Bharatnatyam dancer and has been dancing since the age of five.
Shaila is the artistic director of the Shaila School Of Dance, which she founded in 2009 to provide training in Indian Bollywood and Folk style dance forms to students in the Metro West Area of Massachusetts. She has adapted the dance forms for the next generation of dancers through her innovation and experimentation in Bollywood mixed with Folk, Punjabi, Filmy, and International dance forms.
Shaila fervently challenges her students to greater heights to capture dance with a strong spirit. Shaila’s first priority is to discover and inspire their creative dance talent and build their confidence, as well as a strong foundation for their dance education. Not only does she teach her students dance forms, she also teaches them self-discipline, confidence and respect for the art of dance.
