The Jaipur Gharana developed in the courts of the
Kachchwaha kings of Jaipur in Rajasthan.
Importance is placed on the more technical aspects of dance, such as complex and powerful footwork, multiple spins, and complicated compositions in different talas. There is also a greater incorporation of compositions from the pakhawaj, such as parans. The Jaipur gharana has many more branches and off-shoots than the Lucknow style and requires a detailed tree diagram to show these. However, in the last century, the work of the Jaipur gharana dancers Jai Lal, Sunder Prasad and Narayan Prasad, Kundanlal Gangani and Sunderlal Gangani and Durga Lal was instrumental in developing the gharana. Presently the prominent artist of this gharana is sangeet natak academy awardee Rajendra Gangani son of Kundanlal Gangani, sangeet natak academy awardee Gitanjali Lal wife of Renowned kathak dancer Devi Lal,Pt. Tirath Ram Azad ,Prerana shrimali & celebrity kathak dancer Pratishtha Sharma desciple of Rajendra gangani
