W2 Beginners II

INTENSIVE WORKSHOP SERIES DANCE KATHAK
Our workshop programme is carefully planned, the content and intensity geared to your level. We will be working on technique, abhinaya (expression) and tala/laya (rhythm) and examining the history and musical foundations of dance.
The goal of each course is to develop technique and to learn a choreographed item. The classes are accompanied on tabla and vocals.
