About us
Natya at UW is the University of Washington's premier competitive Indian Classical dance team. Founded in 2009, the team was formed with the passion of maintaining the authenticity of traditional Indian dance forms including Bharatanatyam, Kuchipudi, and Mohiniyattam, and prides itself in creating innovative pieces that emotionally connect with audiences from all backgrounds. The team is grateful to have received several placings and awards at regional competitions and most recently, is proud to have placed 2nd at Origins 2024, the National Classical Dance Championship.

Over the years, we’ve had the honor of receiving several awards at regional competitions — most recently placing 1st at Dhirana in Pittsburgh this year!
This year, we are incredibly excited for the opportunity to attend Origins, the National Championship this year on April 12th in Chicago! We are grateful to have attended Origins each year since it's conception in 2020, and were thrilled to place 2nd at the Championship last year. We would love your support in helping us get there! All funds raised will help us cover costs for flights, stay, and registration.
