Kosha, Dimensions of Being
The Anubhava School of Dance presents Kosha, a blend of classical, traditional and contemporary dance forms performed to live music, which comes to the Playhouse Opera for two performances only on Saturday 29 June at 2pm and 6pm.
Kosha showcases a blend of classical, traditional and contemporary dance forms, including African Folk, Bharatanatyam, Kathak, Kuchipudi, ballet and modern contemporary styles.
Kosha features a cast of 18 dancers and on-stage musicians from different backgrounds, cultures and traditions. Dancers include Casey Swales, Gabriel Youngstar, Devinaa Morar, Priyen Naidoo, Harshali Naik, Manesh Maharaj, Tanisha Ravjee and Yashmay Sooful. Providing music will be Isaiselvamani Sri Karthiegasen Pillay, Rajive Mohan, Tansen Nepaul, Zawadi Yamungu, Kirthan Pillay, Vitesh Surujbally and Shamand Maharaj and Veedhern Punwasi.
The term Kosha refers to veils of energetic layers – like swirling sheaths of fabric, each wrapping around the next, like layers that obscure the true self. Understanding the notion of Kosha means we become wiser about our essential nature, inspiring self-awareness and self-confidence.
Anubhava School of Dance is headed by Sureka Singh; Nikita Ranchod and Nisha Galal.
