Nataraj Fine Arts Bharatha Natyam dance classes

For the benefit of my grade 6 dance students & anyone interested in the history of classical Indian dance… part of the Natyaveda.

Natyaveda is regarded as the fifth Veda, created by Bharata Muni under the guidance of Brahma. Natyaveda provides a comprehensive art form that combines drama, dance, music, and expression.

According to the scriptures, Brahma drew elements from the four Vedas—recitation from the Rig Veda, music from the Sama Veda, gestures from the Yajur Veda, and emotions from the Atharva Veda—to create Natyaveda for the benefit and enlightenment of all people. A significant aspect of Natyaveda is the inspiration derived from the divine dance of Shiva, especially the Shiva Tandava, a powerful and dynamic dance symbolizing creation, preservation, and destruction. Shiva's Tandava embodies cosmic energy and serves as the foundation for many classical Indian dance traditions, where rhythm, movement, and expression unite to convey spiritual and philosophical truths.

Graduation Ceremony for my grade 8 Bharatha Natyam Diploma students last night at Beck’s Theatre, Hayes! Keep reaching for the stars & wishing you all the very best in life 🙏🏼❤️

For your classical/ Bharatha Natyam dance performances, I only recommend my students to use Tropic Make up as it’s 100% naturally derived, perfect for sensitive skin. Tropic also has 100% natural skincare with an organic range too that I have been using now for a few years. With good skin, make up sits on flawlessly.

The soft silk gel eyeliner is perfect for those Bharatha Natyam eyes and does not irritate the skin nor cause any itchy eyes! Win-win for performances or for make up that doesn’t get itchy by the end of the day.

Please join my group or msg me on 07912413209 to know more about vegan, naturally derived, fully recyclable or reusable, cruelty free, carbon negative Tropic Skincare & make up 💚

Lovely morning doing a workshop spreading awareness of classical Indian dancing to the next generation at ISKCON Gurukul school in Watford. In collaboration with Indradhanush Kids ☺️

Teaching the children prayer dances/slokas importantly with meaning was very fulfilling 💕
