Chitralekha Dance Academy

The Chitralekha Dance Academy was founded in 1980 by Kalashri Chitralekha Patnaik for the purpose of disseminating Odissi Classical Dance and Music and today is widely recognized for maintaining and preserving the sanctity and purity of form, style, and technique. The Academy specializes in the practical and theoretical aspects of Odissi dance and provides solo, duet, and group performances for students achieving the traditional repertoire collection which eventually leads to the Manchaprabesha, or graduation performance.  In addition to Odissi Dance and Music, the CDA also provides instruction in yoga through the medium of classical dance, folk and film dance and tabla.
