Khyal Arts

Khyal Arts “KHYAL” means imagination and creativity...
Khyal Arts promotes classical Indian dance and music to diminish boundaries and to bridge gaps in society.

Khyal Arts CIC is a social enterprise based in Waltham Forest, London. Our vision is to increase participation in music and dance of Northern India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, bridging age and cultural divides. As a sustainable organisation, we aim to keep prices as affordable as possible whilst employing highly trained and experienced tutors and artists. Most importantly, our classes are inclusive

and open to all, irrespective of age, ability or background. We aim to:
1. Inspire the local community through one-off workshops, performances and demonstrations
2. Embed interest of the art forms through regular and recreational mixed-ability classes
3. Excel by providing group and individual lessons built around an examination syllabus

Khyal Arts focusses on promoting classical Indian dance (Kathak dance) and Hindustani Vocals.

How time flies! No one can believe that we’re into our 5th week of ChutneySOCA sessions at Walthamstow YMCA… and our participants are feeling the benefits!

No need to take my word for it. Here are a couple of testimonials:

“The classes are an absolute must for me to maintain health and balance in mind, body and spirit.”

~ Barbara Korner, participant

“After each class, you will notice that every part of your body has had a joyful workout. Even your fingers and toes! The music is infectious, and uplifting. The vibe is inclusive and fun. It’s a balm to any stresses you may have had at the end of your week.”

~ Jenny Murray, participant

And if that isn’t reason enough to join today, they’ll be a healthy treat for the first three people to arrive.

Sending uplifting carnival vibes your way.

Onwards and upward.
