Virtual Mentorship

Nitya Narasimhan
In her words : A million years and lifetimes from doing them any justice. But I have always wanted to learn this movement vocabulary simply cos they bring so much joy. Chumma shot a few karanas in my backyard one rainy day . I myself can see ten thousand mistakes so do excuse the eye sore.

Thankful to for being a super patient teacher. I can’t imagine how hard it must be to communicate the nuances of these beautiful movements over zoom but she does it so well. This has been one of the best things to come out of the lockdown and everything going virtual for me me. Do check out for her new Karanas batches.
