Live & Learn at Krshala with Maestro Simran Godhwani

Krshala offers residential Kathak training programs for Indian, NRI, and international students in the traditional Gurukul Parampara—a system of living and learning with one’s Guru. Rooted in devotion, discipline, and artistic exploration, the program provides a rare opportunity for dancers to deepen their Kathak journey in a spiritually enriching environment.

This immersive one-month program includes accommodation, freshly prepared vegetarian meals, studio access, and assistance with the visa process for international applicants. The Gurukul program may begin on any date convenient to the artist.

Located in Bangalore, Krshala offers access to a vibrant and multi-layered cultural landscape. Students can participate in diverse artistic and cultural experiences within the city, often leaving inspired to explore new dimensions of movement, form, colour, and expression.
