dancing away..

I love to dance. I have been learning the Indian Classical art form of Bharatanatyam for 8 years now! In the early days of training i only took it as a hobby. But as the years passed by, i soon realized that it just didn't remain a hobby; but it is my passion now. Bharatanatyam is one of the most authentic and ancient dance forms of India. It originated in the state of Tamil nadu in India. Centuries ago, dancers would perform in the royal courts of kings. This dance form was developed further and made known to the world as Bharatanatyam. In the recent times, It has gained a lot of popularity both in India and abroad.   
                  Along with my passion for dance, I have been blessed with an amazing guru (teacher), who has guided me, corrected me, scolded me and also appreciated me. To any layman, Bharatanatyam might just be a form of dance, but for me it is a way of connecting to my inner self and to the divine. I wish to pursue dancing along with my academics even further in life.Whenever i dance, it makes me commit deeper and deeper towards this art form! I can truely call Bharatanatyam my first love and will remain so all through my life!
