Bharatnātyam - Classical Dance
If you opened the Shāstras and searched for the meaning of a Goddess, you would find a lady doing Bharatnātyam.
(via Twitter: The Narrator)I studied this in college. She is telling a story about Krishna.
Learning to dance this made my soul sing.
I love this so much, the passion and precision in these movements, beauty that foregrounds power and energy, the lines she’s making are so dynamic and the drapery flows like emphasis around them.
This is the kind of dance that makes me want to dance.
