About the event

These classes are open to all levels. We recommend all classes in the intensive to see substantial improvement and results. This intensive Yamini will be focusing on building tools and techniques which will improve your Dancing as a Kuchipudi Dancer. 

In the trend where, the dance culture has been obsessed with teaching more and more materials and choreographies. Yamini wants to bring back the focus on technique and abhinaya. Technique does not mean learning basic steps and jathis/phrases. Technique in dance means, HOW do I perform this step I have learnt in Dance Class. This requires knowing which muscles to engage, what analogy to use to execute the movement with the right texture, how do I maintain musicality as I focus on the precision of the step, is my body in alignment as I start to dance. How am I breathing, where is my gaze, which part of my body initiates the movements, what is the inspiration and intention behind the movement, what is turn out and rotation, how do I articulate my feet and hands…etc.   A lot of dancers in the Kuchipudi world do not talk about this. Dancers from all backgrounds must build strength, flexibility and endurance for a sustainable dance journey.   So this August we will learn and master customized body conditioning, technique and abhinaya routines designed by Yamini to tailor your great practice session. After this Intensive, Yamini hopes to see the students of Kritya and all the Kuchipudi dancers across the globe to get into the habit of this ritual during their practice.   

You can drop in to one of our classes with no commitment to see if it is the right fit. All Classes are offered via Zoom.
