Project Week Reflection – Dance

As I’ve said a lot in my reflections I’m no dancer but in the CAS spirit of pushing myself for project week we set up classes with THE Tanushree Shankar at her dance academy. I was absolutely terrified of this as it was for Indian classical dance which I have no background in and she is one of the country’s leading choreographers and dancers, I was certain I’d make a complete fool of myself. However, it was a lot of fun and by the end of the 5 classes she had taught us a whole dance that we brought back and incorporated into Kahaani and it was a really nice way of experiencing another aspect of South Indian culture from a place I have no experience with. Stepping out of my comfort zone definitely paid off here and being in a group where only one of us had any dance background really helped as the majority of us had similar fears and we all encouraged and motivated each other.
