It is found in three styles named after the location where they are performed, i.e. the Purulia Chhau of Bengal, the Seraikella Chhau of Jharkhand, and the Mayurbhanj Chhau of Odisha.
In our dance studio, we mainly teach “Mayurbhaanj Chhau”. Mayurbhanj Chhau dance form has a long history. Originally a tribal dance, which originated from the forests of Mayurbhanj in the 18th century, it got the status of a martial art form in the 19th century.
Slowly & steadily Mayurbhanj Chhau left its martial character and mellowed. Under the Royal Patronage, it received proper attention & direction and showed a bright future and utmost perfection as a dance of excellent style in the field of eastern art and culture of India. Mayurbhanj Chhau has highly evolved techniques of its own for which it differentiates itself from other forms of dance.
