"Manali madam is a very passionate and dedicated teacher. She always motivates young as well as adults to give their best. Lucky to have met her. Her annual functions are a glimpse of how well she is coaching her students online as well as offline. She also trains for Kathak examinations. She has explained in details about the recital of taal as well performance. Cherry on the cake is her understanding nature and Happy go Lucky attitude to take challenging endeavours. Most recommended 🙏😊"

"Learning Kathak under Manali ma'am was one of the best decision . She is the best teacher, who not only teaches the art but helps us build confidence and fight with our own fears. She has given us opportunities to showcase what we learned and inspired us to be our best. I am blessed to be able to learn this art form under her. I would have never continued learning Kathak, if she was not there to help us learn. Sometime when she says 'good' in any class, it feels so nice like a child😊😊...thats what her impact is on our learning.Thank you NSK-OTB for giving this opportunity. Thanks Ma'am 🙏🙏"

"Nritya Sargam Kathak also called as 'NSK' is one of the best place to learn Indian classical dance Kathak and also semi classical dance form. The founder of this class Mrs. Manali Mohite is very talented, passionate teacher and choreographer . I am associated with NSK from last 5 years. My guru Manali Ma'am always helps me to give my best by not only teaching just the dance but also helps me to build the confidence to perform. Under her guidance students of NSK are successfully moving ahead towards Kathak journey. I highly recommend NSK for all age groups of kids and ladies."

"Guru Manali Mohite is a dedicated and such a caring teacher. She ensures she brings out the best from each student. As non-hindi speaker, I have difficulty understanding the theory but Mam takes extra care and ensures that I get the correct meaning in English. She guides us with such clarity that we get to correct even the minor mistakes and perfect the art. Blessed to be her student."

"My daughter started training with Manali Ma’am during Covid. It started as a way to keep my daughter busy during lockdown but 4 years and 2 exams later I can rightly say this was one of my best decisions. Manali ma’am has walked an extra mile in my case by giving us the option of both online and offline classes. I recommend her to any student and parents that stay in and around GB road."
