Rhythm & Gestures: An All Levels Bharatanatyam Drop In Class (Berkeley)
Every Monday starting April 14th from 7:30 – 9:00 pm @ Shawl Anderson Dance Center – 2704 Alcatraz Ave, Berkeley, CA 94705. We begin with a warm up, fundamental adavus or foundational steps, learn a routine to popular music, and also do some abhinaya work rooted in gesture and improvisational storytelling. While some Indian dance experience would help, you do NOT need to be familiar with Indian forms to attend!
Please note, these classes are being facilitated by Shawl Anderson Dance Center.

The background features a person dancing barefoot on a beach near rocky cliffs and calm ocean waves.… The dancer wears a sleeveless black top and loose jeans, with one arm raised in a graceful mudra (gesture) and the other extended outward. The sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene. Text on the
