✨ South Asian Classical Dance Aesthetics and Technique ✨

📅 Date: October 1
Time: 10:00 - 11:30
📍Place: Halifax Dance
🎟️ Price: $10/PWYC, No Registration
 
South Asian Classical Dance Aesthetics and Technique will highlight basic adavus (movements) in the styles of Bharatha Natyam, Kuchipudi and Kathak that combine hand gestures (mudras) and rhythmic language. In this 90-minute workshop, participants with a background/training in any dance technique will dance in bare feet and gain an understanding of the full range of movement vocabulary and physicality in the spectrum of South Asian dance styles. The class will culminate in participants learning a combo/routine. 

Choreographer Bageshree Vaze

Born in Pune, India but raised in St. John’s, NL, Bageshree Vaze is an Indo-Canadian dance artist, musician and writer. Bageshree initially trained in Bharatha Natyam at the St. John’s Hindu Temple, and studied vocal music with her father, Damodar Vaze. 

Bageshree later trained in India on scholarships with some of the foremost masters of Indian classical dance and music – Bageshree studied Kathak dance with Jai Kishan Maharaj in New Delhi, and studied vocal music with the renowned Veena Sahasrabuddhe.
