Shruthi Rajeesh

I’m Shruthi. I grew up in India and have been living in Calgary since 2012. Like many of us, I grew up watching Bollywood and other Indian films, which deeply influenced my love for music and dance. I was always an active person during my school and college days, but after becoming a mom, it became challenging to stay consistent with exercise.

In 2017, I discovered BollyX, and it reignited my passion for movement and fitness. Since then, it has become an important part of my life. In October 2023, I also began learning Bharatanatyam, a classical Indian dance form that connects me to my roots in a meaningful way.

Dance, for me, is not just about movement it’s a powerful form of expression. It brings joy, builds confidence, relieves stress, and creates a sense of connection within ourselves and with others. It’s a reminder that it’s never too late to rediscover your passions and prioritize your well-being.
