The people behind Dance Central Dubai — our founder, leadership, and the instructors who bring every class to life.
Saandesh Jhanvi
Dance has been part of Saandesh's life since 1999 — a journey that took him from founding Mangalore Excellent Dance Academy to moving to Dubai in 2010, teaching, choreographing and performing across India and the UAE. In 2022 he founded Dance Central, with a vision to create a space where dancers can learn, explore their creativity, and grow with confidence.
His journey has also taken him to Pineapple Dance Studios, London, and the Dance to Connect Diploma in New York City (2024). For Saandesh, dance is more than technique — it's about expression, connection, and helping people discover the joy of movement.
A commerce graduate turned wellness leader — teaching yoga since 2018 and co-founding Dance Central, she brings organisational strength and a passion for wellness to create a warm, welcoming studio.
An entrepreneur and real estate professional with 26+ years of experience, and Proprietor of Sacch Properties Pvt. Ltd., Mangalore. A respected patron of arts and culture, he supports Dance Central's vision of helping dancers learn, grow, and perform.
