Workshops

Workshops played an integral role in the development of Reshmi as an artist. The edifying workshops and intensive training programs enabled her to master the nuances of Odissi and to excel in this dance form. The workshop conducted by Odissi maestro Padmabhusan Shri Kelucharan Mahapatra is where she sharpened her skills and gained valuable knowledge on Odissi. Apart from this, she was also a long time student of Odissi virtuoso Ratikant Mahapatra's 'Srijan' and was fortunate enough to attend numerous workshops organised by him and Sujata Mahapatra. The workshops of Madhavi Mudgal also helped her a lot to gain valuable knowledge on Odissi and master performance art. From learning the different styles of Odissi to grasping the core tenets of performance art, each workshop was an enriching learning curve for Reshmi.

Shivranjani

Reshmi was associated with Hindol, a music and dance institution founded by her father, the eminent musician Mr. Sujoy Basu. Inspired by her father's institution, Hindol and his outlook on performance art, Reshmi's dance academy, Shivranjani, has been cultivating young talents and empowering them to reach their full potential. Heavily influenced by the principles of Hindol, Reshmi’s school of dance focuses on mining the latent talent of its students and ushering them in the right direction. Shivranjani is where individuals can pursue their passion and strive for excellence. Under the careful guidance of Reshmi and her team, the students of Shivranjani hone their skills and learn valuable lessons on persistence, performance, professionalism. Shivranjani also conducts yearly concerts, workshops and TV shows where its students showcase their skills.
