Native to North India, Kathak (pronounced “Kah-tahk”) is one of the many Indian classical dance forms. Kathak originated within Hindu temples as a storytelling device for portraying the epic tales from Hindu scriptures, Mahabharata and Ramayana. Poetry was combined with rhythmic movement to aid in worshipful storytelling. Kathak also has a Persian influence from the Moghul era. Known for their quick footwork, graceful movements, and pirouettes, Kathak dancers are one of a kind!

Bollywood is the Mumbai Film industry (India's Hindi Film Industry). The name “Bollywood” was coined during the 1970s. It is India's and the world's largest film industry in terms of films produced and released yearly. Bollywood originated when the Indian film industry overtook the Hollywood film industry. “Bollywood” does not comprise any one dance form. It is such a happy mixture between the east and west cultures.
