অন্বেষা বিশ্বাস অগ্নি একজন উদ্যোগী নৃত্যশিল্পী যিনি মূলত গুরু শিবলী মোহাম্মদের অধীনে কথ্থক নৃত্যের প্রশিক্ষণ নেন। তিনি অনেক ছোটবেলা থেকেই নাচছেন। তিনি বিভিন্ন সময়ে বিভিন্ন পরিসরে বাংলাদেশী লোকনৃত্য, রাইবেশে, ছৌ, সমসাময়িক, বুটোহ্ এবং সৃজনশীল নৃত্যের প্রশিক্ষণও নিয়েছেন। তিনি সর্বদা সব চ্যালেঞ্জের জন্য প্রস্তুত থাকেন এবং নতুন জিনিস শিখতে ভালবাসেন। তিনি নিজের স্টাইল এবং বেস ফর্মগুলির পরীক্ষা-নিরীক্ষা করে কোরিওগ্রাফ এবং নতুন মুদ্রা তৈরিতে নিজেকে প্রশিক্ষণ দিয়েছেন। তার কাজের নৈতিকতা সহজ: "আপনি আপনার অনুশীলনে যে সময় এবং প্রচেষ্টা দিয়েছিলেন তা কখনই আপনাকে মঞ্চে ঠকাবে না"। তিনি বর্তমানে যারা তাদের দেহের ধরণ এবং বয়স নির্বিশেষে নাচের আকারে জীবনকে অন্বেষণ করতে চান তাদের নাচ শেখান। তিনি তার শিল্পের মধ্যে মূল্য খুঁজে পান। আরও বেশি নাচের মাঝে নিজেকে নিমজ্জিত করার জন্য সমস্ত কিছু করে যাচ্ছেন তিনি। নাচ হল তার জন্য অক্সিজেন এবং নৃত্য সম্প্রদায়টি তার কাছে পৃথিবীর মতো।
