Navdhi Jain

Founder & Artistic Director

Navdhi Jain is the founder and artistic director of Bliss Dance Studio, where she brings passion, creativity, and expertise to every dancer she teaches.

Her love for dance began at age 3, performing her first Bollywood dance on stage, sparking a lifelong dedication to movement and performance.

At age 4, Navdhi began formal Ballet and Tap training at Oceanside Dance Academy, performing in her first recital at the California Center for the Arts in Escondido.

Shortly after, she moved to Carlsbad, where she started professional training in Bharatanatyam, one of India's classical dance forms. By age 6, she was performing at Indian-American cultural events across the U.S., building a strong foundation in traditional dance.

During elementary school, Navdhi led an online summer dance camp during the COVID-19 pandemic, teaching children her age and younger to stay active, creative, and engaged through dance.

She also participated in talent shows and fusion performances, showcasing versatility across multiple styles.

At Carlsbad Aviara Oaks Middle School, Navdhi joined Dance PE and, after auditions, advanced to Dance 2, an advanced class where she choreographed multiple routines that were featured in the school's Spring Dance performance at Sage Creek High School.

After moving to Temecula, Navdhi joined Temecula Dance Company, successfully auditioning for two competitive teams.

She has performed in regional competitions in Fallbrook and at the Anaheim Convention Center, and her teams ranked in the Top Ten at the National Dance Competition in Palm Springs.
