Dance-in-education
Educational organisations interested in including training in the Jena style of Odissi within existing curricula or offering it as an accredited degree/diploma program should contact the Odissi Dance Company. This is a valuable opportunity for your students to learn an original dance and music style and pursue it to professional standards and beyond. Nirmal has presented and taught Odissi in many schools and universities. He teaches dance movement and related arts at the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) in Sydney, Australia.
