  • Kathak Saangi is an app designed especially for kathak dancers—students, teachers, and practitioners.
  • It offers modules for daily practice: drills in layakari (rhythmic variations), recitations, taals, lari, upaj (improvisational compositions), and more.
  • The app helps with learning and understanding more complex concepts, such as different types of tihais (rhythmic patterns repeated thrice), geometric aspects of kathak footwork, etc.
  • It includes an interactive tabla-player module, so that users can simulate tabla sounds by pressing different parts of the instrument in the app.
  • Kathak Saangi is available for Android (via Google Play Store) and iOS (via the App Store).
  • The Android version requires Android 6.0 or newer, and the app is fairly sizable (tens of MB) due to its audio content.
