Pradeep hails from the suburbs of a village called Udupi. Those of you who are foodies are most likely to recognize this zone. He was a pro cricket player for his district in his childhood, and is now a businessman in his late twenties, balancing himself between his real-estate venture, his men's apparel store (aptly named "Tango") and his not-so-long-ago found passion a.k.a. Salsa. It was in 2006 that he first took his lessons on Rueda de Casino with Cyrille Ngalle from France. Ironically, he only attended these sessions to accompany a friend of his, who no longer dances. He fell in love with what he was learning and holds Cyrille, his first coach, in high regard. While attending a Salsa social arranged by Furor Entertainment (SalsaBangalore.com), he realized that Rueda segued perfectly into Salsa and immediately signed up as a student. Thereafter, the Furor Entertainment (SalsaBangalore.com) instructors recognized Pradeep's aptitude for learning new movements and he was taken in under their wings. Having caught the Salsa "bug" in a big way, he has since taken workshops from world renowned dancers the likes of Edie "The Salsa Freak" (US), Akhila (CA), Swing Guys (IT), Junior and Emily (US), Knzo (FR), Dave Paris and Zoe Klein (US), Ara Hwang (VN). Presently, he is training with Alex, under whose personal attention Pradeep continues to learn the nuances of the dance. Pradeep is dedicated to Furor Entertainment (SalsaBangalore.com) and its students, passing on what he has learned so far as one of Furor Entertainment's (SalsaBangalore.com) instructors. Apart from the dancing, due to his expertise in the field of Marketing, he is also heavily involved in Furor Entertainment's (SalsaBangalore.com) business affairs as one of Furor Entertainment's (SalsaBangalore.com) lead Marketing Guys. He has made his mark in Furor Entertainment (SalsaBangalore.com) in more ways than visible to any. Pradeep's style of dancing includes a mix of Freestyle, Bollywood, Cuban, Hip-Hop, Mambo and his favorite, Desi Tapanguchchi. Although, he prefers up-tempo music while dancing, he is also very adept at showing his passionate side on the dance floor during the slower, more romantic numbers. His vision is to make Salsa accessible to all those who love dancing but have yet to experience the Latin dance forms.
