Mission
Shakti is the only competitive Indian Classical Dance team at Johns Hopkins University. Since 2003, the dancers of JHU Shakti have excelled on stage, telling stories through dance while holding dear the value of our classical Indian dance form and culture. As a competitive team, Shakti won Mayuri in 2013 and received third place at Dhirana in 2016. The team dedicates their time to the mastery of expression, hand movements, and footwork, and seeks to convey a powerful story through classical dance to all audiences. The members of Shakti each bring a variety of classical dance styles to the team and meld them into dynamic performances featuring traditional steps set to fast-tempo beats, complex formations, and moving narratives.
