Hi I am 62yrs and have just started learning Kathak . I am glad I came across your Chakkars video . I was having trouble in smooth landing but looking at your tips I am sure I will learn the best way of doing my Chakkars. Thankyou for explaining it so well . Will start my practice from today itself 🙏🙏🙏
You are no doubt an excellent dancer but as a dance teacher myself ( Odissi), I can say you are an amazing Guru par excellence! I have nothing to do with chakkars in my style of dance ( we have Bhramaris, done on toes), but I just couldn't stop this video. And am happy to say, I tried and got them right too! Ps. You are beautiful!
I've watched your video for the first time I've actually jotted down all the points! It's so good to see people sharing such technical things on a public platform usually classical dancer don't share they techniques to always stay unique.
Fantastic analysis of the chhakar!! I started taking Kathak at age 42, I got serious with trying to learn the spin around age 53. I have analyzed and analyzed to get it correct. This made it so succinct. Many years later… I’m still working on it but really appreciate this break down!
This is one of the best videos of teaching what to do before starting to take the first spin. Great analysis. Thank you. Started learning Kathak at 50, spins are the hardest part.
Ma’am I cannot thank you enough for these tips..I had been struggling since long and today..I have finally done 20 chakkars in a row just by improving one mistake... I really really cannot thank you enough.. Best wishes to you for everything..
Hey! I'm a third year Kathak dancer, and this really helped me out! My teacher is really nice, but you are just amazing!!! I wish you would also be my teacher!
I am 36,now I am in Visharad 1st year..after 9 or 10 chakkars I feel tired..This is the best video in TH-cam for doing best chakkars.. Thank you for your tips..very well explained..
You teach so well thank you. I am 53 always had a love for this art and getting to learn now through TH-cam tube. Can you do a tutorial on hand movement also please.
Thank you so much for the tips. I used to learn Kathak and sometimes my teacher used to told me to improve my chakkars so now I am going to try this tips so that I can improve my chakkars.
the 5th one is so useful,i observed it earlier and I followed it and then you mentioned it in 5th tip and explained it properly.Then It became more easier to take the turn .thank you so much
I always think about this issue about my height while dancing, that dance for tall people can face more issues about body postures compared to short people. Thank you so much for explaining it in this video.
Thank you very much ma'am for sharing chakar techniques. It's a great help. Really appreciate it. Could you please share tips how we can do tatkar ki baat in one shot without feeling tired? How to improve stamina for kathak?
Have never had the technique of doing ‘ek paer ka chakkar ‘ explained so well and in so much detail ! Thank you so much 😊....you are an amazing teacher!
Nayantara Ma'am thank you for making this video, it is really veryyyy helpfull!!! Full of gratitude for the lover you shared through these tips!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thanks for sharing such a valuable information which is very useful for beginners, so that they can take care of minute things during learning itself and practicing. Moreover, these tips motivate us that we can do it.
The precision you move with! What an inspiration! ❣️ Thanks for putting all the tips together and for the wonderful demonstration! I still can't get it right but I'll keep trying! ☺️
Many thanks, i was in search of this knowledge because of course we should be aware of, practice means exactly what to do, where to concentrate. Thanks again
My God.. you are such a joy to watch... Guruji made us do 32 spins and your tips really helped... I loved the part of channeling the inner Krishna ( I was doing it intuitively) and strengthening the core... I am seriously wondering how one can do that.
Please hold a workshop for beginners to learn chakars. It would be so helpful to learn this accurately. I'm an intermediate student, but still struggle with single foot chakkars.
You saved me🙏, I am a classical dancer -kuchipudi. Our college asked me to perform a song that is full of kathak steps and a solo to talk about. I am terrified of the spins this is helping a lot . Fun fact: I am also 5'10😅. I am feeling like learning kathak as well ❤️
Thanku mam for giving this wonderful advice now I have improved with my one leg chakkar. I can do 10 spins in one go on heel now I m trying to do more. Thanku again for ur reply and advice

Im a student at birju maharaj parampara and ive been struggling to understand the right way of practicing ek bol ka chakkar since a long tine but cudnt.

Hi Anupama, I have not heard of this technique. What Kathak garana is it a part of?
@@svitlanaorekhova1665 search odissi. It's a separate classical dance form
