It changes your grounding, makes you work harder for every spin, and honestly, feels a bit like dancing on quicksand—in the best, most challenging way possible. We follow that with pottery and cooking, balancing the intensity of the floor with the quiet pace of a local Goan kitchen. ### A Space to Create, Not Just Perform This retreat isn't about perfecting a routine for a stage. It is about *pal pal jeena*—living in the moment. Over these 5 days in Mandrem, we strip away the performance anxiety and get back to why we dance in the first place: freedom. #### The Daily Rhythm We keep the group small because that is the only way to make this work. Mornings are for technique. We focus on Kathak footwork and contemporary fluid movement, pushing your limits in the sand. By the evening, we slow down. We move into Abhinaya sessions, finding the stories in your movement, and then shift gears completely with pottery workshops or learning local Goan recipes. #### What's Included We handle the logistics so you can focus on the movement: * **Stay:** 4 nights in a boutique villa in Mandrem or Ashwem. * **Food:** Full board plan, including a traditional Goan Saraswat family lunch. * **Travel:** Private airport transfers and local transport for all workshop venues. * **The Keepsake:** A professional mini video edit of your performance on the beach. This is not a vacation where you just sit by the pool. It is a residency. You will sweat, you will get tired, and you will leave with a new community. If you are looking to deepen your practice and find that 'Ghar wali Diwali' feeling in a new place, this is for you. ## About Saloni Saraf I am Saloni, and I started Rangwang because dance should be about freedom, not just perfection. Whether we are in a studio in Mumbai or on the beaches of Goa, my goal is to create a safe, sweaty, and real space for you to tell your own story. I want you to leave feeling a bit more connected to your body and your community.
