Bharatnatyam - Foundation

This beginner-level Bharatanatyam course is designed for students with little to no prior experience in Indian classical dance. Rooted in the rich traditions of South Indian temple dance, Bharatanatyam combines expressive storytelling (abhinaya), intricate footwork (adavus), and graceful body movements (nritta).

Students will be introduced to the basic posture, hand gestures (mudras), eye movements (drishti bhedas), and rhythmic patterns. The course emphasizes building a strong foundation in technique, coordination, rhythm, and discipline.
