Offerings cover conditioning (yoga, pilates etc.), technique (odissi, kathak, bharatnatyam, hindustani music etc.), dance history, and dance appreciation courses. In addition, students will view performances by emerging creatives and professionals. There will be assessment activities and an informal showing at the end of the institute.
