Odissi Indian Dance, Music & Meditation with Nirmal Jena
Activity Details
Learn Odissi classical dance, music (vocal & pakhawaj) and meditation with Nirmal Jena, Australia's most distinguished teacher of Indian classical arts.
Shammi Pant says:' I felt drawn to the triad of dance, music, and meditation as a way to reconnect. I longed to experience the world through dance, understand the universe’s rhythm through music, and connect to universal consciousness through meditation...Meeting Guruji/Nirmal was like encountering a calm river—flowing gracefully, deeply, and effortlessly. His house felt like a temple—green, serene, with lotus flowers in water, radiating simplicity and energy. His studio held large drawings of the triangular forms of Odissi dance, symbolizing the journey from the root chakra (mooladhara) to the divine. Dance became a form of yoga—a way to unite body and mind in devotion.'
