The story behind the name
Laya Soul
- Laya
- Sanskrit for rhythm, tempo and the flow of music.LUH-yuh लय (pronounced luh-yuh, with a short u as in “sun”)
- Soul
- The feeling within — what makes a movement yours.
Shraddha has always danced by instinct. When music finds her, she moves — freestyle, unplanned, simply following the beat and enjoying the moment.
She isn’t a trained dancer or a teacher, and Laya & Soul doesn’t pretend otherwise. It’s a place to learn out in the open: finding her rhythm, building confidence, and getting a little better with every song.
Along the way, she hopes to share what she discovers — and to help others feel the same lightness. Dancing without waiting to be perfect, trained or watched.
Dance isn’t about getting it right. It’s about feeling it.
This begins as one person’s passion and hopes to grow into a community. The journey is ongoing, and you’re welcome to be part of it.
Shraddha is based in Indore, India. For now, Laya & Soul lives online.
