Our Founders
Our Thoughts
Classical dances of India emerged from our ancient relics and progressive evolution has today, made them one of the most difficult art forms to imbibe and master. As classical dancers, we underwent over 2 decades of rigorous training and honestly believe that we have only touched the surface of what truly defines the depth of abhinaya, taal and layakari.
Learning classical dance is beyond acquiring a mere skill. It becomes a way of life where every situation runs through an artistic perspective. As quoted by Pt. Birju Maharaj ji himself “मैं गुरू नहीं हूँ, मैं अपने घर का सबसे अच्छा शागिर्द हूँ” defines his deep realisation and surrender towards Guru, a finest example of Guru-Shishya Parampara.
To say the least, learning a classical dance form takes a lifetime of effort, passion and creative forces for one to prevail and illustrate excellence.
Our Plans
At KathakNatyam, we believe that dance is the ultimate expression and manifestation of one’s soul. We strive to connect the mass with roots of our rich cultural heritage. We have had frequent collaborations with NGOs that promote education, art and culture amongst the underprivileged. Our aim rests with the youth of our country and we promote them with utmost sincerity and responsibility. Extensive tours and performances have enabled us to spread Indian culture abroad and we wish to continue doing so in the future years.
