*Rescheduled* Contemporary Indian Dance Class @ Peridance

Based on the core of the Contemporary Indian style lies the hybrid of the intricacies of classical Indian dance: footwork, expression, and hand movements, with targeted exercises to provide for a fulfilling and fresh contemporary dance routine at the end of every class.

This class attempts to investigate the communicative potential when merging western dance traditions with a classical South Asian foundation. It starts with a vigorous yet meditative warm-up, and proceeds to elaborate on Indian classical and contemporary technique. This leads to a dynamic movement language and exchange, and leaves the dancer with a clear understanding of the relevance and importance of South Asian aesthetic in the performing arts.
