The StoryDancer: Uniting Hearts with Music, Dance and Song
Dynamic Creativity Through Movement Arts
Zuleikha — international performer and educator — inspires dynamic creativity through movement arts. Her international non-profit The StoryDancer Project serves girls, women and families in marginalized communities. Involved in many expressions of her heart, a unifying theme is movement in music.
Calling herself a “musician dancer”, she has studied Western Classical music, North Indian Classical music, and movement since childhood. Combining rhythm, melody, story and mood of the North Indian Classical expression, she honors and adapts it to many kinds of music to inspire and heal our body, heart and spirit.
“I am a StoryDancer”
Zuleikha has worked all over the US, Europe, India and in other parts of the world. Serving families in marginalized communities, her mission is to bring positive change through movement.
A wellness leader, she created a vitality and resiliency self-care program called TAKE A MINUTE®. These little exercises take less than a minute to circulate our stagnant energy: “to wring out this body-house we live in.”
People love her innovative teaching.
With many ways of working with people, she has taught almost every sector of society. She trains people in communities in self-care exercises in hospitals, businesses and the non-profit sector.
The truth is, she finds that everyone has the same problem: stress. Independent of our circumstances in life, we all carry stress.
Language of the Soul
The joy of movement is the language of the soul. When the body is touched by the soul, dance or movement with awareness is born. This brings rejuvenation into life, creating a pattern of well-being.

The Wander, the Exiled, and the Homecoming
On this podcast you will get to listen to Come Home from Zuleikha’s new CD Raining Stars. Music by Zuleikha, the words are inspired by English translations of Anandamayi Ma, a great woman saint from contemporary India. Her helpful words reminds us:
How much more time will you spend at a wayside inn? Don’t you want to come home?
