About Me
I am Atul Sahay, a professional dancer and fitness instructor with over 15 years of experience in dance and 10 years in fitness training. My journey began in 2010, driven by a deep passion for movement, rhythm, and transformation. Over the years, I have evolved from a passionate learner to a professional performer, educator, and founder of my own academy — MVMNT – Dance • Fitness • Lifestyle Academy.
My Journey
My dance journey started in 2010, when I began my initial training at Ankush Kapoor Dance Company, Delhi. Seeking to grow further as an artist, I moved to Mumbai and joined the prestigious Shiamak Davar Institute for Performing Arts (SDIPA).
At SDIPA, I trained in multiple dance styles including Hip-Hop, Bollywood, Contemporary, Jazz, Salsa, Ballet, and Bhangra. These experiences not only refined my technique but also shaped my creative expression and stage presence.
Alongside dance, I developed a strong foundation in fitness. I worked as a full-time Dance & Fitness Instructor at Cult Fitness, Mumbai, where I specialized in Yoga, Zumba, Kalaripayattu, Boxing, and Strength & Flexibility Training. This combination of art and athleticism became the foundation of my philosophy — that true movement connects body, mind, and soul.

These experiences gave me the opportunity to share the stage with top artists and understand the energy, discipline, and artistry that go into professional performance.
