Kathak

All forms of dance, from hip hop to ballet, contemporary to kathak, are set to be performed there.

“People have hung up the phone on us,” said Castro, who is one of three members of Soles of Duende, along with the flamenco dancer Arielle Rosales and the Kathak artist Brinda Guha.

Jiayin “Tokie” Wang, a recent graduate of the California Institute of the Arts whose work is more contemporary and multimedia by utilizing video and visual arts, paired with Barkha Patel, a Kathak dancer and choreographer.

While Patel’s work focuses on Kathak, she recalled consistently being asked to teach Bollywood classes — a completely different style.

“We’re blending very intentionally Kathak, Chinese folk and contemporary dance,” Patel said.
