About Sneha Solanki:
I started learning Bharatanatyam around the age of six in Mumbai, India, and trained for 10 years under two gurus, Smt. Darshana Jani and Smt. Rajeshwari Damania. I was certified through the Nalanda Dance Research Centre program and completed my Arangetram in 2007. This workshop started with wanting to pass this art form on to my 2.5 yo daughter and because I love being around kids. I am a chemical engineer working in deep tech in SF since 2020. I live with my husband and 2.5 yo in Noe Valley, SF. Apart from dance, I enjoy biking, tennis and slow walks in the neighborhood.
