A note from Sahasra - the story that started it all:
Welcome! I'm so excited for you to start learning dance or music. I created this video library because I realized having access to a knowledgable teacher in the Indian arts - one that you respect, has a huge amount of research behind them, and have dedicated their lives to the art form - is a rarity. I tell my students all the time: access to knowledge is a privilege. And while I advocate heavily for in person classes with a teacher, sometimes, it's just not possible whether due to financial constraints, time constraints or otherwise. This art form has brought me SO much that even if I can only transfer a small percentage of my knowledge and pass down a bit of what was taught to me, it is well worth this endeavor. And, to me, it's a fight to advocate for these more traditional, ritual spaces for Indians as we move forward. For so long, we were told these art forms - were not "as good as" other art forms in the world. This is my way of helping as many people as I can find empowerment, joy, and strength through learning something that has so much history embedded in the simple movements of our bodies.
Because of my 20+ years of experience teaching, I was able to pour all my knowledge - what to look out for, how to break down each step so you can learn it and self correct with a mirror (or without!) and how to keep yourself injury free while learning with the structure and intensity you crave from the live class. I'll also be adding what I think makes a holistic dancer: an understanding of the history, theory, how to learn the right way, and various other tidbits of information that make powerhouse Indian artists so very good at what they do.
Then, when you're ready, you can hit the ground running when you finally have the time to join a class with a teacher (any teacher, really) and take your dancing to the next level.
