Kathak lovers can attend the workshop which is divided into two batches -- junior batch, which includes people with three to four years of prior training, and senior batch with training of eight years and above. Nrityashri Alaknanda, a disciple of Birju Maharaj, wants to pass on the same teachings that guruji once gave her.
