Raghav will take participants through a physical and vocal warmup designed for TWO, utilising rhythms in this highly physical interaction with a Tabla player. You will learn contemporary technique and repertoire from TWO, which has been heavily influenced by classical Kathak.

Raghav Handa is trained in modern and Indigenous contemporary dance and draws on the principles of Indian Kathak to create multifaceted, engaging explorations of modern Australian identity. His works challenge cultural and contemporary norms by navigating the “preciousness” and complexities that surround traditional hierarchies. By utilising his Indian heritage to create spaces that foster robust discussion and risk taking, he encourages his audience to come to their own conclusions rather than imposing his own. His creations are novel, engaging and often playful, but he also likes to play with fire!
