Your USA Learning Guide
Eastern, Central or Pacific—not just ‘US time’
New York and New Jersey use Eastern time: EST (UTC−5) or EDT (UTC−4). Dallas–Fort Worth and Chicago use Central time: CST (UTC−6) or CDT (UTC−5). The Bay Area and Seattle use Pacific time: PST (UTC−8) or PDT (UTC−7). These cities observe daylight saving; India stays on IST (UTC+5:30).
Include your city, local dates and preferred time windows in the enquiry. The India–US conversion may cross a calendar day, so confirm both the weekday and local hour. A mutually convenient schedule is agreed rather than promising universal evening or weekend availability, and it is reconfirmed when clocks change.
Separate cultural learning from event preparation
A child learning Kathak can develop familiarity with bols, rhythmic cycles and expression alongside movement. Parents can use the demo to discuss readiness and how to support practice without turning each home session into a performance rehearsal.
If you are preparing for a cultural gathering, share the date and your experience early. Foundational Kathak and song-based semi-classical choreography serve different goals; choosing the right programme is more useful than rushing a new learner into a complex piece.
Make teacher feedback visible
Use the demo to check camera distance, lighting and sound. The teacher needs to see foot placement as well as the upper body to guide tatkar and posture. Apartment dwellers should describe space and flooring constraints so home practice can be discussed realistically.

Live format and feedback
Choose group or one-on-one video-call classes; ask which suits your level. Keep your full body and feet in frame, with a stable camera, reliable internet and clear music. Confirm the platform before class.
Placement and practice
Tell the teacher about your experience and goals before choosing a level. Kathak begins with posture, tatkar, rhythm and recitation, then builds toward compositions and abhinaya. Ask for practice tasks between classes. Progress depends on readiness, attendance and practice.

Questions from USA Learners
Can learners in New Jersey and California share one local class time?
Eastern and Pacific time are normally three hours apart, so the same live lesson has different local times. Share each learner’s location if enquiring together. Group suitability and a mutually workable schedule need discussion; a shared slot is not guaranteed.
Will the US weekday match the teacher’s weekday in India?
Not always. The time difference can put the two locations on different calendar dates. Confirm the lesson date and weekday as well as the hour in your local time before attending.
Are these classes taught at a US studio?
No. This page is for live online learning from your home in the USA. Request a free demo to discuss your space, experience and preferred local-time windows.
