At Moksha Arts, we lovingly call our teachers “Didi,” which means older sister. Our Didis are more than instructors. They are friends, mentors, and role models who nurture each dancer with care, encouragement, and inspiration. Therefore, we ask that all dancers/students please address all our Moksha Arts leaders as "Didi."

 

Interns (Our younger "Didi"):

These classes will also include student interns working alongside our teachers. Our interns are longtime Moksha Arts students who have grown within our program and now serve as positive role models. They provide extra hands-on support, helping our younger dancers feel guided, encouraged, and confident in class.
