Classical Odissi dance classes for all ages. Beginner-friendly, with a focus on technique, rhythm, and expression. Group and private lessons available.

DM or Email for details. Odissi is one of India’s most graceful classical dance forms, rooted in tradition yet deeply relevant today. It is a dance of flowing lines, gentle rhythms, and expressive storytelling. Our classes offer a calm, welcoming learning space for children, teens, and adults of all genders. The focus is on strong foundations, expressive movement, and personal growth. No prior dance experience is required. Whether you are stepping into dance for the first time or returning after years, this is a space to move with intention, clarity, and grace. Classes include:
Foundational Odissi technique
Posture, balance, and flow
Rhythm and musicality
Expressive movement and storytelling
Short choreographic pieces

The classes are guided by Ruma, who has devoted over two decades to studying and living the Odissi tradition under the guidance of revered gurus, and has performed on many stages. She welcomes students to join her - to dance, to explore, and to experience the quiet magic of Odissi!

From literal learning to living the Mudras! 😊
It was indeed fun today. Great job, class! A few mistakes here and there - that’s all part of learning. May our little stories keep growing!

Such a lovely moment at Anubhuti Retreat Center.
Loved how everyone just joined in and tried to match the steps. 😊 It was so much fun! I really loved their spontaneity, trying something new without any inhibition. There is something so pure and beautiful about that. ❤️
