This is an adapted choreography I taught as part of my Divinity of Dance workshop at Kamatala Festival, July 2015, Exeter, UK.

It is a simplified excerpt from Hari Riha Mughda, a storytelling item, exploring the play between Krishna and the Gopis (milkmaids). In the workshop we were exploring various themes, one of which is the idea that through devotion to Krishna and the acting out of his past-times, we experience liberation of the soul.

Thank you to Namrata Dhawan for sharing this video she took of me! It is a bit shadowy... I forgot to take into account the light behind me! <3
