Gurukul Dance Company is a versatile performing company that specializes in the classical dance styles of India, with the primary focus being on Kuchipudi, a style from the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.

Artistic Director Samarpita Bajpai is an accomplished Bharatnatyam/Kuchipudi dancer, who has also had intensive training in many other classical styles. The company has worked on projects that have reflected some of these other styles too. Gurukul is also perhaps the only USA based professional company that strives to popularize Indian folk dances among the audience here, believing, that one does not comprehend what India is all about unless they have experienced the folk culture too.
