‘I want people to understand that classical dance is not mere entertainment, but a spiritual experience. It is a prayer that we say with our hands, elbows, eyes, feet, in fact our whole body. And this divinity, which is a result of years of dedication, translates into magical performances,’

~ Pandit Birju Maharaj 🙏🏻

Expression of the limbs (Āṅgika Abhinaya)

Angika Abhinaya denotes the movements of angas like head, hands, waist and face. Pratyangas like shoulder, shoulder arm's, thighs, knees and elbows and upangas like eyes, eyelid, cheeks, nose, lips and teeth. Additional hastas (hand gestures) have always played a significant role in conveyance of the emotion and through of a soul. Many of the natural gestures are found common to mankind and their meaning easily understood.

Abhinaya (Sanskrit abhi- 'towards' + nii- 'leading/guide') is the art of expression in Indian aesthetics. More accurately it means "leading an audience towards" the experience (bhava) of a sentiment (rasa). The concept, derived from Bharata Muni's Natya Shastra, is used as an integral part of all Indian classical dance styles.
