On-demand choreography
navadurga online course
A 9-chapter course to guide you step by step through the odissi Navadurga choreography at your own pace, and from the comfort of your own home.
Navadurga is a 12-minute abhinaya composed by Guru Pankaj Charan Das and dedicated to Goddess Durga and her many aspects. It is a devotional piece celebrating the enlightened and powerful feminine energy. Navadurga captures the hearts of seasoned and novice audiences alike, and is a choice part of every dancer's repertoire. I've been performing and teaching this choreography for the last 13 years, and I'm now happy to bring it to you through this on-demand course.
With this offering, I've tried to give maximum flexibility and accessibility to dancers all over the world, while maintaining authenticity and value. Even if we don't share the same time zone or have different schedules, we can now walk the odissi path together! Let's dance!
