Taisia .

BIOGRAPHY

Taisia is a seventeen year old Odissi dancer and music lover from from Moscow who has studied Odissi since she was seven years old, first under the guidance of Kiran Sehgal's student Sofia and in 2004, through workshops taught by Guru Ramani Ranjan Jena in Moscow.

She feels that studying Odissi theory in Moscow can be a struggle for lack of literary resources, although she is grateful to have recently discovered the support of Rajashree Chintak Behera who lives in Moscow and teaches twice a week.
