BBC Young Dancer Adhya Shastry ‘an inspiration’ to young dancers
A teenager who was named BBC Young Dancer 2022 has “really inspired” other young dancers, her instructor has said.
Adhya Shastry, 17, won the BBC Four competition earlier this month.
She started dancing Bharatanatyam, the classical Indian dance form, aged nine at the Kalakunj performing arts group in Reading.
Adhya, who is studying for her A Levels, said winning the title had opened up “endless possibilities” for her.
The grand final for BBC Young Dancer 2022 saw 10 talented dancers between the ages of 17 and 24 compete for the coveted title at London’s Roundhouse.
