Kathak is one of the nine forms of Indian Classical Dance. This dance form traces its origins to the nomadic bards of ancient northern India, known as Kathakars or storytellers. Kathak is the enigmatic, energetic, classical dance form. Kathak became the base of most of the modern dance forms including the famous Bollywood dances which have been an attraction for all.

Kathak gives emphasis on poses, expressions, grace, hand, eye and body movements and footwork and the enactment of stories and portrayal of rhythmic structures. Kathak is found in three distinct forms, called “gharanas”, named after the cities where the Kathak dance tradition evolved – Jaipur, Banaras and Lucknow. Today Kathak is well renowned and recognized as one of the most popular cultural dances from India.
