About Karunakar
I'm Karunakar Mohanta, a passionate Mayurbhanj Chhau dancer from Mayurbhanj, Odisha. I began my journey in Chhau dance in my village, learning the traditional techniques for over 5 years.
To refine my art, I moved to Bhubaneswar and pursued formal training at the prestigious Utkal Sangeet Mahavidyalaya. Currently, I am pursuing my Master’s degree in Chhau Dance at Utkal University of Culture, Bhubaneswar.
I specialize in Mayurbhanj style of Chhau, a martial art-based dance form known for its strength, grace, and storytelling through powerful movement. I offer both online and offline Chhau dance classes for beginners, intermediates, and advanced learners.
Whether you're interested in learning for performance, fitness, or cultural exploration, I provide personalized guidance to help you understand the deep essence of Chhau — from footwork and body postures to expressions and mythological narratives.
