Tanah South Asian Dance Troupe Budget
FY2013 (July 1 2012 - June 30, 2013)
In 2003, Tanah was founded as Carnegie Mellon University's first all-girls South Asian dance troupe. Since then, not only has Tanah actively participated in on-campus shows, but it has performed at intercollegiate dance competitions and showcases around the country. United by a passion for dance, Tanah is dedicated to performing multiple genres within the art, including classical South Asian forms, western hip-hop, and bhangra. Tanah also provides students with a creative outlet for those who love to dance, encourages cultural awareness, and promotes the development of new styles and skills that allow each member to express her dynamic individualism.
