Taniya Panda began her training in the Carnatic style of Indian classical music in Toronto, Canada from Smt. Vijayalakshmi Seenivasagam. In her early teens she moved to Chennai, India to take more intensive training from the acclaimed Veena Vidushi Smt. Padmavathy Ananthagopalan. Taniya is also an accomplished Bharatanatyam dancer having undergone training with Guru A. Lakshmanaswamy. She has performed solo, duet and group productions in India, Canada and the US both as a dancer and supporting vocalist. She is currently continuing her vocal training with Kyvalya Chilla (Secunderabad). Fun fact is that she used to be a molecular biologist conducting cancer research. She is based in Marietta, Ga where she runs behind her two children. And when she isn’t singing or running in circles, she performs Bharatanatyam duets with her husband!
