You will leave with a clear roadmap for your individual practice, including high-quality audio recordings for your personal use, ensuring you can refine your technique long after the sessions conclude. For intermediate and advanced students, dance is a continuous dialogue with the body. Whether I am conducting a session in Bengaluru or on an international tour, my aim remains the same: to decode the *nritta* (footwork) and *abhinaya* (expression) so you can find your own authentic voice. ### What to Expect We focus on specific compositions—such as *Padams, Javalis, or Thillanas*—breaking down the *Sahitya* (literary meaning) so every gesture has intent. These are not merely choreography classes; they are modules designed to sharpen your understanding of rhythm and musicality. ### Support & Learning I believe in practical learning. You will receive studio-recorded audio tracks for the pieces we cover and permission to record choreography breakdowns. This support is crucial for your *Abhyasa* (daily practice) at home, allowing you to absorb the finer details of the *Margam* (repertoire) at your own pace. ### Who Should Attend These sessions are crafted for dancers with at least 5 years of training or post-Arangetram experience. We keep group sizes limited to ensure I can provide individual feedback on posture, alignment, and emotional clarity. If you are preparing for a performance or simply looking to break through a plateau in your training, these workshops provide the focused environment you need. ## About Praveen Kumar I am Praveen Kumar, and for me, Bharatanatyam is a conversation. I believe in discipline, but also in the joy of discovery, and I love creating spaces where we can push our boundaries together, whether in a studio in Basavanagudi or on a stage abroad.
