Kathak, with its intricate footwork, expressive gestures, and captivating storytelling, has been a focal point for Kathak Dharohar's outreach programs. In April 2016, Durgapur witnessed a dance workshop that aimed to bring the joy and depth of Kathak to its residents.
Participants, ranging from beginners to those with some prior experience, gathered with a shared passion: to learn and immerse themselves in this beautiful dance form. The workshop was structured to provide a comprehensive understanding of Kathak. From basic footwork to complex rhythmic patterns, from the history of the dance to its evolution over the years, every aspect was covered in depth.
The trainers, with their vast experience and dedication, ensured that each participant received individual attention. The days were filled with rigorous practice, interactive sessions, and moments of sheer joy as participants discovered their own rhythm. The workshop was not just about dance; it was about finding one's voice, expressing oneself, and connecting with a rich cultural heritage.
