All things kathak (ATK) started with a simple idea- there is more to dance than performing. We are a research-driven platform to share lesser known stories, research, and experiences around Kathak.
Since the past 3 years, All Things Kathak has been slowly building a community of dancers interested in conversations around Kathak, and the larger discourse of classical dance in contemporary India.
We organise workshops, public talks on kathak’s history and various other aspects, we enjoy a sense of humour and the ability to laugh at ourselves , we nurture a growing instagram community and work actively with local dance institutes, independent dance teachers and universities.
