New sessions of community classes are dropping soon. This season at Attakkalari, we have Hiphop and house dance sessions facilitated by Yash Nagesh, aka VIBESTER. These Hip-Hop and House dance classes are designed to introduce students to the core foundations, grooves, and cultural essence of both styles. In Hip-Hop, the focus is on rhythm, freestyle, and powerful movement, while House emphasizes footwork, flow, and connection to music. Each session includes warm-ups, technique drills, choreography, and freestyle practice to help students improve their skills and musical understanding. The goal of these classes is to make learning fun, engaging, and expressive while maintaining authenticity to the styles.

Yash, AKA “VIBESTER”, is a dance artist and instructor specialising in Hip-Hop and House dance styles.
Dancing for the past 12 years, he has been training students of different age groups and skill levels. He focuses on building strong foundations, musicality, and individual expression. His teaching approach blends technique with creativity, helping dancers grow both technically and artistically. His sessions seek to create an energetic and supportive environment where students can explore movement, build confidence, and develop their own unique style.
