BATU NRUTYA SERIES
Deconstruct / Reconstruct this vibrant and vigorous classic odissi choreography through an entire ‘Batu Stepping’ series and review of the choreographies main ‘Arasa’ (compositions). The focus of this series will be on understanding the musicality and refining nuanced transitions in the more challenging sections of the dance. The entire dance will not be presented as a whole, so this is not a complete presentation of Batu for learning for the first time, rather the series is ideal for students wanting to newly approach the techniques of the choreography or polish this item they have already learnt.
*This class is not recommended for brand new Odissi students, some basic technique is required to execute the compositions comfortably. If you have any questions or concerns about joining please email: ColleenaShakti@gmail.com
