Description:

Description:

This class is an introduction to Kathak, one of India’s classical dance forms. Young dancers will explore basic footwork, spins, hand gestures, and simple rhythms while learning how movement can tell a story. Through short combinations, students will begin building coordination, musicality, and confidence. The main focus is on creating a strong foundation while laying the groundwork for more advanced study in the future.

What’s Included:

  • 2027 Moksha Arts T-Shirt
  • Training in Kathak dance foundations, performance skills, and confidence-building
  • Semester-end dancer-only showcase on Thursday, December 10th @ 5pm (for Moksha Arts dancers only)

 

Communication:
All Moksha Arts communication happens via email. Please be sure to register with an email you check regularly.

 

Teacher: Harmeet Kamboj

At Moksha Arts, we lovingly call our teachers “Didi,” which means older sister. Our Didis are more than instructors. They are friends, mentors, and role models who nurture each dancer with care, encouragement, and inspiration.

 

Interns (Our younger "Didi"):

These classes will also include student interns working alongside our teachers. Our interns are longtime Moksha Arts students who have grown within our program and now serve as positive role models. They provide extra hands-on support, helping our younger dancers feel guided, encouraged, and confident in class.
