The Story of Taaraang Dance School
Bringing the rhythm, grace, and soul of Indian dance to Eindhoven and beyond.
Far from India, yet deeply connected to its rich cultural roots, Taaraang Dance School was born from a dream to share the beauty of Indian dance, music, and traditions with people of all ages and backgrounds.
Founded by Anupoorba Maulik, Taaraang is more than a dance school. It is a space where culture comes alive, creativity flourishes, and every student feels welcomed, supported, and inspired.
At Taaraang, we believe that dance is more than movement. It is a journey of confidence, self-expression, and connection. Whether it is a child taking their first dance steps, a teenager exploring their artistic voice, or an adult rediscovering a lifelong passion, every learner is encouraged to grow at their own pace.
Through Kathak, Semi-Classical Dance, Creative Dance, Bollywood Dance, Rabindra Nritya, and Sufi Dance, we celebrate the richness of Indian performing arts while nurturing creativity, discipline, fitness, and mindfulness.
🤝 More than a school, Taaraang is a community. A place where friendships are formed, cultures connect, and every performance becomes a celebration of learning and togetherness.
The name “Taaraang” symbolizes waves of rhythm, melody, and expression. Like waves that travel across oceans, our mission is to share the spirit of Indian arts, inspire hearts, and create meaningful connections through dance.
Discover the joy of learning, performing, and growing through dance.
Founder
Anupoorba Maulik is the Founder and Artistic Director of Taaraang Dance School. Her dance journey began at the age of five. After four years of Bharatanatyam training, she discovered her true passion for Kathak and went on to pursue intensive training for over 17 years. A disciple of the legendary Padma Vibhushan Late Pt. Birju Maharaj Ji and a practitioner of the Lucknow Gharana tradition, Anupoorba continued her artistic growth and learning even after completing her Visharad in Kathak. She also holds a Visharad in Rabindra Nritya.
Over the years, Anupoorba has trained in and choreographed a wide range of dance styles, including Indian Folk, Bollywood, and song-based choreography. Her work spans diverse regional traditions and languages, including Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Nepali, and Gujarati.
A lifelong learner at heart, she believes that a dancer’s journey never truly ends. She continues to explore and draw inspiration from other dance traditions, including Flamenco, Ballet, and various global movement styles. Through Taaraang Dance School, she is dedicated to sharing the beauty of dance while nurturing creativity, confidence, discipline, and cultural appreciation in students of all ages.
