Odissi Indian Dance

Posted by soulla Katsiani on June 17, 2015 at 4:40pm in Single Events

Please join us on Sunday 19th July at 2.30 to watch a fascinating dance performance given by Katrina at Alexandra Park Library

Odissi dance is considered to be the most lyrical and feminine dance style among other classical dance traditions from India. This dance form takes its origin from Orissa, East of India. The history of Odissi dance has been traced to the early sculptures found in the caves in Udaygiri, and the main positions of the dance are the copies of temple sculptures. Initially Odissi was developing as a temple dance performed by maharis (temple dancers) for the Lord Jagannath; it has also absorbed the influence of the tantric cults that existed in Orissa. Almost extinct during the British Raj, it was reconstructed and reborn in 20th century thanks to the efforts of the great gurus – Kelucharan Mohapatra, Devaprasad Das, Mayudhar Raut and others.

 Katrina Rute is a versatile dancer trained in several Indian classical dance styles. Katya has been teaching and performing internationally and took part in various culture events, workshops and TV shows in the UK, Latvia, Poland, Lithuania, Sweden, Russia and other countries.
