Nada McClellan

Nada loves sharing the pure joy of Indian dance with each of you. 

Nada McClellan fell in love with Bollywood and Indian folk dance in college and in 2012 co-founded and directed a small Bollywood dance company, Aaja Nachle Hawaii, which performed at events and shows all over the state and offered regular community classes and workshops. 

Nada has studied with a number of well-known dance teachers, danced on a competitive Bhangra team, and has directed and performed in professional videos and on stages in Hong Kong, Macau, New York, and Honolulu. 

Sumoha Min

Sumoha Min celebrates the vibrant dance traditions of her community by sharing it with you!

Sumoha Min grew up in Houston, Texas, learning Garba and Raas at an early age. She later trained in the classical Indian dance forms of Bharatnatyam and Kuchipudi, while expanding her repertoire with modern, contemporary, and West African dance styles during her time at New York University. 

Sumoha’s professional journey includes serving as a principal dancer and choreographer with NYU NASHA and PatelWorks Dance Co. in New York and Tattva Dance Co. in the Bay Area. She also played a key role in founding the RAMA community, a creative collective dedicated to empowering AAPI artists.

After relocating to Hawaii in 2006, Sumoha joined Aaja Nachle Hawaii, where she helped produce three showcases and began teaching Bollywood dance to adults and youth. Now, after a brief pause to focus on raising her two children (ages 3 and 5), she is thrilled to return to the dance community and share her passion once again through classes.

Darsh

Darsh passionately shares with you the joy of dance, simply for the love of it.

With years of experience and a deep love for dance, Darsh brings energy, enthusiasm, and expertise to every class. Born and raised in India, Darsh grew up surrounded by the vibrant rhythms and movements of the traditional Indian dance form called Garba, sparking a lifelong passion for the art.
