Bharatanatyam
Bharatanatyam is one of India’s the oldest and most famous classical dance forms of
India, originated from Tamil Nadu. At Kalalaya, we respect this rich culture
heritage by offering comprehensive Bharatanatyam classes that blend tradition with
modern teaching methods. This dance form includes a combination of Bhava
(expression), Raga (melody), Tala (rhythm) and Natya (dramatic art) elements,
incorporating these for a powerful demonstration of the expressive hand gestures
called mudras and facial expressions. They collectively communicate beautiful
stories from Hindu mythology as well as ancient Indian epics.
