Originating from the temples of Tamil Nadu, Bharatanatyam is one of the oldest and most revered classical dance forms. It’s a beautiful synergy of Bhava (expression), Raga (melody), Tala (rhythm), and Natyam (dance) – a complete art that tells stories, conveys emotions, and evokes devotion through intricate footwork, graceful hand gestures (mudras), and compelling facial expressions.
