Kathak is known for its fluid dances depicting popular stories from Hindu mythology.
The specific dance style depends on where students learned their craft. There are three prominent schools of dance in India located in Benares, Jaipur, and Lucknow.
Both facial expressions and intricate footwork are crucial aspects of this dance form. But these three schools, or gharanas, tend to put more emphasis on one over the other in their respective teaching styles.
