› About Us
Tanah was founded in 2003 as Carnegie Mellon's first South Asian Dance Troupe. Ever since, it has been an active troupe not only on-campus but at inter-collegiate competitions and national showcases. United by our passions for dancing, each member continues to develop new styles and skills that allow us to express our dynamic individualism. Tanah prides itself by creating and performing dances ranging from western hip-hop and bhangra to modern classical. In short, Tanah stands for the purity of motion, the desire to develop forms of movement that express our emotions.Together as one, we honor our heritage and our fervor for dance.

How are auditions structured?

You will be broken up into small groups for about fifteen minutes to ask any questions you may have about the routine. On the second day, the audition piece will be then performed in small groups. Afterwards, the individual segment of the audition will begin where you will perform the audition piece by yourself along with an optional thirty second individual piece. If you choose to perform the individual piece, please bring your music on any music playing device (such as an iPod) or a flash drive. Even though the individual piece is optional, it is encouraged. Not only do we want to witness your talents but also your creativity.
