About
Shivani grew up in southern California and has been dancing various styles for over 10 years. She began her training and performance journey in Kathak under Smt. Anjani Ambegaokar (Orange County, CA). She soon expanded her training to include contemporary, modern, and street styles - earning a minor in Dance and Performance Studies at UC Berkeley, competing on hip-hop dance teams Groove Against the Machine (Oakland, CA) and 220 (San Diego, CA), and completing the pre-professional training program at Broadway Dance Center (New York, NY).
Shivani is currently a company performer on IMGE Dance, a genre-blurring American dance company based in NY/NJ. Through IMGE, Shivani has performed in Broadway Bares and Indowarehouse concerts, featured on Vogue and Vanity Fair, assisted a university residency at Gonzaga University, and more.
Outside of dance, Shivani has a BA in Data Science from UC Berkeley and works in healthcare analytics at a fertility benefits company. She is also avidly exploring new food as an ex-vegetarian.
