Mr Odedra is on a journey to becoming one of Britain's most innovative dance artists.
Originally from Birmingham, he trained in the classical Indian styles of Bharatanatyam and Kathak before heading to India to study under Bollywood choreographer Shiamak Davar.
He set up his Leicester-based company back in 2011, driven by the belief that art should be open to everyone.
These days, more than 1,000 people take part in his learning programmes each week.
