Episode 5 - From Stage to Dream, a Dancer who never gave up | Aashana | Nilaa and Beyond with Monica

From a small-town job in India to building a life in Toronto, this episode of Nilaa and Beyond features a dancer who has balanced a career in HR with a lifelong passion for dance. We talk about her journey through 10 different cities, dancing through a knee injury, the family that never quite understood her passion, and how she built her own identity through YouTube and viral Instagram videos. We also dive into a bigger conversation: what it means to be a trained, educated dancer in the age of Instagram, and how views and algorithms have changed the art form itself. 🎙️ Watch till the end for a fun music round! 🌙 Nilaa and Beyond, Conversations to the moon and more. 🔔 Subscribe for new episodes Team: Host - Monica Production Manager - Sudharsan Creative Director - Deven 📸 Follow us on Instagram: Maaya Nilaa Arthaus - https://www.instagram.com/maaya.nilaa...
