Mohiniyattam Workshops and Masterclasses in Bangalore

We design our workshops to be more than just technical sessions, as they are opportunities to immerse yourself in the nuanced aesthetics of Mohiniyattam. Whether we are hosting guest artists for the Anubhavam series or conducting intensive technique modules at our Kalari, our focus remains on individual correction and the shared energy of the group, ensuring that every participant leaves with a deeper understanding of the art form, not just a set of new movements.

Deep Dive into Mohiniyattam

Our workshops are crafted to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the rigour of professional performance. We believe that true growth happens when you step out of your regular routine, which is why we curate these intensives to cover diverse aspects of the dance, from Abhinaya (expressive acting) nuances and complex Hastha Mudras (hand gestures) to the subtle swaying movements of Andolika.

The Anubhavam Series

Our signature Anubhavam Series is close to our hearts. We invite eminent practitioners to Bangalore, allowing our students to experience different pedagogical styles within the broader framework of Guru Bharati Shivaji’s tradition. These are not just one-way lectures, but interactive spaces where theory meets practice. You get to engage with the history, the spiritual context, and the technical intricacies of Mohiniyattam in a supportive, judgment-free environment.
