Anjali Nath is an established Kathak dance performer and teacher, trained by the renowned, late Kathak master, Pandit Chitresh Das. Known for her swift chakkars (spins), crisp footwork and grace, Nath’s solo performances are rooted deeply in the Kathak tradition, dazzling to watch, and deeply moving. Nath began her training in 1997 at Tufts University under Gretchen Hayden, Das’ senior-most disciple, and trained and toured with the acclaimed Chitresh Das Dance Company in California for eight years. Nath carries forward a significant legacy ensuring accessibility to the art and excellence in training of the next generation of Kathak artists and students. She has passionately pursued a career in Kathak and public health simultaneously for over 25 years, building community and promoting the holistic benefits of Kathak for children through older adults. Nath has been teaching and performing across Massachusetts and New England for the past 10 years in partnership with schools, universities, art, and cultural institutions, and is thrilled to bring the experience of Kathak to the Harvard community.
