About the event
Join us for a 3-Day Kuchipudi Intensive Weekend — an in-person workshop designed for dancers who want to deepen technique, expand repertoire, and immerse in the musicality of Kuchipudi with the energy of live mridangam accompaniment throughout the weekend.
Hosted by Nataraja Natyanjali Dance Academy (Neelima Gaddamanugu), this intensive will offer multiple Kuchipudi sessions across three days, with opportunities to observe the Kritya ensemble in rehearsal and participate in a dedicated layam (rhythm) session with Harsha Mandayam Bharathi. This edition is especially meaningful as it falls on Yamini’s birthday weekend, making it a celebratory gathering of dance, community, and music. 🎉
📅 Dates: Friday, February 27 – Sunday, March 1
📍 Location: Alpharetta, GA (exact location details will be shared closer to the workshop weekend)
