Bharatanātyam is an Indian classical dance form.
Bharatanatyam is one of the oldest and most revered classical dance forms of India, originating from the temples of Tamil Nadu. Known for its grace, purity, and rich storytelling, Bharatanatyam seamlessly blends rhythmic footwork, expressive gestures (mudras), and intricate facial expressions to convey stories from Hindu mythology and spiritual themes.
Performed traditionally by solo female dancers, Bharatanatyam has evolved into a global art form embraced by people of all genders and backgrounds. Each performance is a beautiful synthesis of music, dance, emotion (bhava), and expression (rasa), showcasing the depth of Indian heritage and devotion.
Whether performed on stage or taught in studios around the world, Bharatanatyam remains a timeless celebration of culture, discipline, and artistry.
