 Dear Urmila,
You were right in pointing out that all of Chitra's students dance either in skirt or saree style and so do most Kalakshetra students. The question was what kind of warm up exercises were practised. And Mrs. Chitra Visweswaran's students are taught a series of 10-12 warm up exercises.( I have been with her so I can vouch for this) Kalakshetra students do learn to warm up too! Both of them do not do karanas(in the sense that you have used).
I have witnessed the amazing performances a few of Sheela Unnikrishnan's students and am sure she is great teacher.
