Ananya Dance Theatre’s Shawngram Institute Ongoing Classes

Ananya Dance Theatre’s Shawngram Institute for Performance & Social Justice offers the following classes online:

Tuesdays: Yorchhā Strong, 9:00-9:30am, CDT – Alexandra Eady
Wednesdays: Advanced Yorchhā, 6:30-7:30pm, CDT – Kealoha Ferreira
Fridays: Intro to Yorchhā, 6:30-7:30pm, CDT – Kealoha Ferreira
Sundays: Intro to Yorchhā, 3:00-4:00pm, CDT – Parisha Rajbhandari

Yorchhā is Ananya Dance Theatre’s trade-marked contemporary technique that intersects principles of vinyasa yoga, the classical Indian dance form Odishi (from the eastern Indian state of Odisha), and the martial art form Chhau (also from Odisha).

Classes are donation based. We suggest $10-20 per class but please donʻt let financial limitations stop you from participating. Another way to contribute is by sharing information about the classes on your social media or inviting people in your orbit to take class with you!

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
