“Making Healing Through Dance Accessible, Inclusive And Fun!”
Bollyheals is a dance wellness company dedicated to enhancing confidence, connection and community through the transformative power of movement.
Our mission is to provide an inclusive space to explore and express emotions facilitating personal growth
OUR STORY
Bollyheals was founded in May 2017 by the husband-wife duo, Swara and Nico in New York City.
They started with 'BollyHEELS' dance classes that aimed to empower South Asian women to embrace their sensuality and promote self-expression.
Swara was the first to create the format and coin the term 'BollyHEELS'
We noticed that our unique class format transformed the personal journey of our students, leaving them feeling more confident, deeply connected with their bodies, and with others in the room

Inspired by this feedback, Swara expanded the program to include various dance styles that evoke emotions beyond sensuality. She integrated more movement therapy interventions in her dance classes, turning every session into an opportunity for emotional release and personal growth.”
Nico became dedicated to capturing students' emotional expressions in class without interrupting their process through candid videos and photos. The direct interaction with the camera throughout the class encourages our students to break out of their shells and command an audience gradually increasing their confidence.
