Read MoreKathak is one of the eight major classical dance forms of India, known for its graceful expressions, intricate footwork, and rhythmic compositions. The name "Kathak" is derived from the Sanskrit word "Katha", meaning story, and "Kathakar", meaning storyteller. This dance form originated in the temples of North India, where it was used as a means to narrate mythological tales through expressive movements and gestures. Over time, Kathak evolved, gaining influences from Persian and Mughal traditions, leading to its distinct blend of spiritual storytelling and rhythmic precision. At Aadharshila Kala Kendra, we are committed to preserving the rich legacy of Kathak and imparting structured training to aspiring dancers.
