Sitara Gupta

Sitara is a Grade 12 student at Haileybury School, United Kingdom where she studies Psychology, Biology and Design at the IB Higher Level and English Literature/Language, Mathematics and Spanish at the IB Standard Level. She has been training in Odissi, a form of Indian classical dance, since she was 6 years old. Sitara is now combining her passion for Odissi with her commitment to feminism and body positivity by using dance to spread positive messages about womanhood and empowerment. Sitara is a keen feminist and hopes that Bodissi will encourage others to also explore the intersection between feminism, womanhood and creative expression. When she is not dancing, you can find Sitara advocating for Amnesty International, mentoring junior students or leading her school’s Biology Society.
