FlexiNatyam by Moksha Rao

Moksha Rao’s dance style Flexi (short for flexible) Natyam (Sanskrit for dance) is a fusion of her classical roots with contortion-inspired flexibility and yoga elements. She has performed in numerous shows from India to the US and is currently based in Sacramento, California. While Moksha derives inspiration from her Indian heritage, she believes in making her unique act accessible to international audiences by embracing other disciplines and creating custom choreography for her shows. Moksha studied a South Indian classical dance form called Bharata-Natyam under the tutelage of Guru Rajee Narayan of Nritya Geethanjali Dance Academy. She is training in Contortion with Ash Rexford from Circus Center and Hatha Yoga from Yoga Vidya Niketan.
