A Proud Moment of Legacy and Grace 🙏🌸
Glimpse of Aamad in 13-beat Taal Durga, performed by Tejaswini Singh, student of Guru Geetanjali Sharma & kalavriksh kathak krndra, mathura at Manjari, Mumbai – 10th May 2026.

This composition was created by our grand Guru Pandita Uma Dogra Ji on the 65th birth anniversary of Pandit Durga Lal Ji, and dedicated to her guru with deep reverence.

The tradition flows from Pandit Durga Lal Ji, to Guru Pandita Uma Dogra Ji, and continues through Guru Geetanjali Sharma and Kalavriksh Kathak Kendra, who are inspiring and nurturing countless students in the art of Kathak.
Heartiest congratulations to Tejaswini for her graceful and heartfelt performance. May you continue to grow with devotion, discipline, and joy ✨

Rehearsal mode ON with Grand Guru Ma ✨
Some glimpses from our final run-through before today’s performance, guided by the grace and wisdom of Guru Ma Pandita Uma Dogra Ji.

Every correction, every beat, every word of encouragement from her makes this moment sacred.

Now we’re all set to take the stage.
Sending love and asking for your blessings and wishes for our student Tejaswini Singh as she performs today ❤️

Kathak is not just a dance.
It’s a beautiful science of rhythm, a living literature of expressions, and a timeless path that shapes life itself 🪷📖
For our children, Kathak becomes a gentle teacher —
It nurtures sharp minds through mathematical taals, builds emotional depth through heartfelt abhinaya, and instills life-long values of discipline, patience, and grace.

This sacred art doesn’t just teach steps; it crafts brighter, stronger, and more confident futures — one ghungroo at a time 💫💃

To every parent: when you choose Kathak for your child, you’re gifting them heritage, wisdom, and self-belief that lasts a lifetime. ❤️
To every student: your riyaaz today is your strength tomorrow. Keep dancing, keep growing. 🌱
