Bollywood Film Dance

 A lively dance style! Bollywood film dance uses not only whole body jumps and turns, but also delicate hand movements and small facial gestures. Always dramatic, intense and full of feminine romance and humour, and always changing.

Most film choreographies are derived from traditional folkloric dance and Classical Indian dance. The folkloric dance provides the upbeat fun, whilst the Classical dance provides the subtle sophistication & romantic nuances.

Kathak Dance

Kathak is one of the most rhythmically impressive dance styles in the world. Wearing 100 bells on each ankle, the dancer interprets complex rhythmical patterns, played on the tabla, the Indian drum. The dancer presents these with refined and delicate hand and body gestures that produce a mesmerizing dance experience.

issi Dance

Odissi is the classical style that evolved within the temple environment of medieval Orissa. This style evokes intense devotion through the medium of dance. Choreographies are invocations to Hindu deities, and abstract dances reveal a dance style which expresses the human form as simultaneously deeply grounded and liberated.

Egyptian dance

Egyptian dance is the emotional and spiritual activation of inner areas of the body. The softness of the feminine body is experience in graceful and rythmical ways.

Experimental Dance

I enjoy taking elements of various styles to see how they relate to each other, and from the opposite direction I like to experiment with dissociating from all forms, especially in the context of music that evokes, as yet, un-chartered emotional landscapes.
