Odissi Step Practice - Chauka 2

Chauka (or Chowk) literally means ‘square’ and it is one of the most distinctive basic stances used in Odissi. In its static form, chauka is perfectly symmetrical with the weight equally distributed among the two legs. Eyes and head are in sama (Straight gaze and neutral head position)
Each step helps the dancers develop a different skill set. Chauka 2 focuses on alternating your body weight and balance between both legs while maintaining the structural framework of Chauka.
