Contemporary dance is their passion. And Hrishikesh's Centre for Contemporary Dance is where they hone their skills.
Launched in 2007 by Hrishikesh Pawar (27), the centre began with two students and today the team has grown to 50.
Hrishikesh, who is born and brought up in the city,u00a0 learnt kathak under the legendry guru Rohini Bhate. He bagged a scholarship to study contemporary dance in Germany. He then worked at various places around the world before returning home and decided to start the centre.
Contemporary dance is concert dance that draws on modern dance techniques and newer approaches that
omit structured form and movement.
"You see a lot of Bollywood contemporary dance, but here you'll find the pure form of contemporary dance," said Maithily Bhupatkar (27), programme manager.
The centre runs batches like the Women and Fitness Batch, which started from March 4. In a short span, the centre has notched up several performances. The occasions have varied from international dance festivals and the Pune Fashion Week to their very productions like Liebe und Leben (Love and Life). They are now busy with an event coming up from April 28 to 30 in collaboration with the Max Mueller Bhavan.
