Originally from Chapel Hill, NC, Annabella is a lifelong dancer and grew up training in ballet, jazz, and contemporary dance. In undergrad, she was an active participant in the South Asian dance community. After moving to Cambridge, MA, she stumbled upon BollyX at her community gym by serendipity, and her first class (with the inimitable Dalia Debs) transported her back instantly to the fun and joy that South Asian dance forms elicited for her in college. She was hooked!

BollyX is Annabella's ultimate happy place, where nothing beats the rush of a rewarding workout from high energy dancing to incredible music with the most awesome, welcoming community. As an instructor, Annabella wants to create a similar class environment where you feel pushed to your limits while having a blast. She strongly believes that smiling large and sweating hard go hand in hand.

Annabella's favorite dance styles are Bhangra, Bollywood, jazz, and anything fusion. In her day job, Annabella works in asset management.
