Learn Kathak online
Kathak is a 5000 year old artform. It is a beautiful amalgamation of historic influences from Hindu and Mughal cultures. Incorporating rhythm, poetry, storytelling, footwork, hand gestures and facial expressions; Kathak is a graceful yet dynamic art form, which brings discipline to anyone who learns it.
DNC began teaching ONLINE Kathak classes during the Covid-19 pandemic. During this time, many new people joined from all over the UK and flourished under the structured training methods and guidance they received from Nikita and her team of teachers. Along with current students, many reported that the online classes enhanced their physical and mental wellbeing.
Due to increased interest in the number of people wanting to learn online, DNC is now offering online classes for kids and adults as an ongoing option. Alongside weekly classes on MS Teams, resources are sent such as; instructional videos, podcasts and handouts to help students practice at home. ALL students are invited to be part of a community DNC WhatsApp group and receive mentoring and support from Nikita, to achieve their full potential.
