One of my biggest motivations for travelling to India on an annual basis is to spend time with master teachers of this precious art form, Odissi Dance. Ancient temple and cave sculptures as well as miniature paintings depict dancers taking these forms with the body, dating back millennia. . Last year, I was studying at the origin of this dance in Bhubaneswar, Orissa. I had the great pleasure of meeting Elena Catalano, who synchronistically came within the same two week window that I was there. She was a breath of fresh air in this foreign space. She immediately tapped me in to the deep meaning and cultural significance of this dance without language barrier that I was so longing for. I was beyond inspired by her dedication to the technique of the dance form, her intense self practice and with that an embodiment of the mythological storytelling and expression latent in the dance. . I’m very excited to say that she is coming to Vancouver, BC to teach a series of workshops, an academic lecture on its philosophy, and finally a 1 Day retreat in nature at a beautiful, forested location in Britannia Beach, BC. This is a unique opportunity to interface with a rare form of dance, a dance whose object is personal transformation and ultimately meditative awareness. You can attend one or all of the events. This is great for all experience levels, dancers, yogis, actors and anyone curious. The date is quickly approaching May 8-11 so please mark your calendars and share!! It’s being held at a beautiful studio at the Scotiabank Dance Centre. @thedancecentrebc @odissielena .
