On Februrary 21 2023, we had a wonderful ghungroo (bell) ceremony where 12 students received their bells, and started a new chapter in their study of Kathak. Thanks to Ira Raina, and Amrit Phull for teaching with such knowledge and passion. photos by Jaliya.

From July 14-17, our international kathak family came together from literally all around the world! We had not been on the dance floor together since our time in Karjat India, in January 2020, and it was a complete celebration of the art we love and our community. We danced, we sweat, we learned new compositions and continued our personal journeys with kathak and its potentials.
Please enjoy this experimental afternoon session, where you will witness our exploring the Nava Rasa.
