Bharata Natyam dance
Indian classical dance of South India
Once danced in temples by the Devadasis (young girls attached to rituals), Bharata Natyam is still practiced there today during religious festivals and festivals, and widely represented in theaters in India and abroad. .
Bharata Natyam has 2 aspects: a technical aspect (known as Nritta) abstract dance composed of rhythms and movements, a narrative aspect (known as Nrittya) where the dance becomes pantomime through facial expressions and body language.
All parts of the body participate in the dance: the feet for the rhythm, the body for the movement, the hands, the face and the eyes for the storytelling and the emotion. Bharata Natyam is a global artistic discipline combining concentration with dance.
