I am honored to guide you through the beauty and grace of Odissi, one of the 9 Classical Indian Dances. I have studied many styles of dance over my lifetime, however Odissi feels like home to me. My studies began in 2009 with Revital Carroll, an accomplished Odissi Dancer who dedicated her life to the dance. She studied in the traditional way, living and working in the dance hall at Konark, India and dancing under the guidance of the Mohpatra family, whom led the 20th century revival of Odissi. I was fortunate enough to study with Revital for 10 years, including two study trips to India and to perform Odisssi at the Sarega Dance Festival in Athmallik, India. While I do not share the same cultural roots, I share a deep love and respect for the art of Odissi and I'm so excited to share the knowledge I have with you.
We are thrilled to welcome amazing Shauna back to the studio.
