Bharatnatyam Classical Dance Experience in Bangalore

This was a fantastic experience. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to a traditional home to learn Bharatnatyam a traditional dance of south india! We saw students getting taught and then we also had a few lessons. The teacher was incredibly patient and fun to be with. It's a magnificent way to spend half a day in Bangalore and learn something new

It all went smoothly. The taxi picked me up from the hotel on time after I had received accurate driver data beforehand. The reception of the dance teacher was very warm. I immediately felt comfortable from heart to heart. At first I could be part of the singing lessons of a school class, which touched me a lot. Afterwards, the dance teacher explained a lot about the tradition of Indian dance and introduced me to 4 young dancers who have been trained by her for 10 years. They were very friendly and demonstrated everything the teacher explained at the same time. So I gained interesting insights into the meaning of gestures and facial expressions as well as much more. I was also taught a few steps and hand movements and even given small gifts and delicious coffee. Namaste

An incredibly welcoming cultural experience, with beautiful dancing, and an interactive performance that was unforgettable. I will cherish my experience for a lifetime!

I had a truly wonderful experience that highlights the beauty and culture Bangalore has to offer. If you're seeking something truly unique, I highly recommend experiencing classic dance. Sreeranjini is not only a talented dancer but also a gracious host and an inspiring teacher. Her passion and expertise shine through, making the experience unforgettable. It’s a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the art form while enjoying the vibrant energy of the city

I would highly recommend this Classical Dance Experience to anyone who is interested in performing arts, the ways in which traditions are shared between generations and cultures, or in social interactions that go beyond conventional tourism. Although I had some familiarity with the traditional ceremony and art form, the experience of discussing and learning directly from the teachers and dancers was extraordinary. The dancers were incredibly skilled. Most are earning advanced degrees in Classical Indian Dance. I learned a great deal about dance forms and symbolic gesture, dance history, and performing arts pedagogy. I also tried my best to learn the Southern Classical basics. (I got maybe 2% of it 😂.) The dancers were very patient with me, and we laughed a LOT. I came away with a far deeper understanding of Bharatanatyam and tremendous respect for the traditional pedagogical methods that support this powerfully expressive form of dance.

We had a lovely time learning Bharatnatyam the classical dance of South India. After an on time hotel pick up,we were taken to a dance teacher who taught us the basics. Her students showed us the right hand gestures and facial movements. It was fascinating half day spent in understanding the culture of South India. I would recommend this for a beautiful way to experience indian culture

This was a great day indeed. I was picked up from my hotel on time next and taken to the venue where the dance teaching was on. Savithri was amazing. She was so kind and taught me some incredible steps. It's amazing how you can express yourself with with clarity by using gestures and hand movements. This is a 2000 was old dance form which originated in the ancient temples. Savithri and her students made it so much fun for me. It was my best day in India!

I had the privilege of doing the classical dance experience of Bharatnatyam. Savithri was phenomenal. She taught us how to use eyes and hands to express emotions. Her students were fantastic as well and taught us many poses. They showed Bharatnatyam can be used to tell stories and epics as well. Highly recommended
