Odissi Foundations

Odissi Foundations introduces the lyrical classical form of Odisha. You will build the chauka (the square, grounded stance) and the tribhangi (the three-bend posture that gives Odissi its sculptural quality), and begin the basic footwork and torso isolations that define the style. Guru Sujata teaches the Kelucharan Mohapatra tradition with patience and precision. A morning class — the studio is quiet and the body is fresh.
