Glimpse of our Bharatnatyam performances

“I’ve had the honor of experiencing the rich culture and history of this traditional Indian dance form for the past 40 years while performing Bharatanatyam” I have developed a profound grasp of the intricate gestures, facial emotions, and narrative components that make up Bharatanatyam via countless hours of practice and performance. I’ve gathered a number of tidbits throughout the years, remarkable incidents and performances that have had an impression on me. These excerpts include everything from endearing encounters with other dancers to thrilling shows in front of big crowds. Together, they encapsulate the beauty and ecstasy of Bharatanatyam, and each one of them maintains a special place in my heart.
