6-Week Beginner Workshop Series in Kathak Dance

Kathak is one of the eight forms of classical dancing from India. It comes from the sanskrit word "katha" which means story. So a kathak dancer, or kathakar, means storyteller. Kathak dancers perform to tell stories using their hands, expressions, and feet that match the beat of a pakhavaj, tabla, or other types of percussion instruments. Nita Trivedi has been dancing since the day she could walk. She has a background in Jazz and Ballet, but focused on Indian styles over the years.
