Kathak
Kathak is one of the eight forms of Indian classical dance having its origin in North India. The term Kathak means Kathakaar - The one who tells a story through dance. This dance form traces its origins to the nomadic bards of ancient northern India, known as Kathakars or storytellers. Its form today contains traces of temple and ritual dances, and the influence of the bhakti movement.
Semi Classical
Semi Classical dance has its origins in Indian classical and folk dance, which when put together, is called Semi-Classical dance form.
