Personalized Bharatanatyam Classes for beginners and intermediate level, all age groups.

Hello! I’m Sreelekshmi from the scenic state of Kerala in South India. I’ve been passionate about Bharatanatyam since childhood and have had the privilege of performing on numerous stages across India. Currently, I am learning under the guidance of Smt. Meera Sreenarayanan.

Bharatanatyam has not only enhanced my physical strength, stamina, and endurance, but also sharpened my mental focus, discipline, and concentration. The art form’s intricate movements, when practiced with dedication, contribute to one’s overall development. Having recently moved to Vienna, I’m excited to share my knowledge and love for Bharatanatyam through this platform.

Bharatanatyam, a classical dance form originating from Tamil Nadu, India, is known for its grace, purity, tenderness, and sculpturesque poses. This vibrant dance form involves postures such as a fixed upper torso, bent legs, and flexed knees, combined with footwork, and a vocabulary of sign language based on gestures of hands, eyes, and face muscles. Here are some key points about my Bharatanatyam classes:

Structure of Bharatanatyam Classes:
1. Basic Level (Beginner)
- Adavus: Basic steps and movements
- Postures: Learning the basic stance (Aramandi)
- Hastas: Hand gestures and their meanings
- Rhythmic Patterns: Understanding of Talam (rhythm)
- Simple Dance Items: Alarippu (an invocatory piece)

2. Intermediate Level
- Complex Adavus: More advanced steps
- Nritta: Pure dance without emotions
- Nritya: Expressive dance with emotions
- Jathiswaram: A dance item that combines adavus and rhythmic patterns

Duration and Frequency
- Classes: Typically held weekly, with each session lasting 1-2 hours. Classes can be tailored according to the needs of the individual.
- Practice: Daily practice is encouraged for better proficiency.

Requirements
- Attire: Traditional dance costume or comfortable pant/leggings with top and a shawl to tie around the waist
- Music: Classical Carnatic music accompaniment
- Space: A spacious area with a smooth floor

Benefits
- Physical Fitness: Enhances flexibility, strength, and stamina
- Mental Discipline: Improves concentration and memory
- Cultural Awareness: Deepens understanding of Indian culture and mythology

Of course, understanding the texts might be a bit difficult at first, but we overcome this and learn together. 💪Then, we come to the most fun part, of course, the speaking part. In this part, we talk about the texts we have read and listened to before. Of course, we try to use new words and verbs more. I love people who talk a lot in my classes.

Integral yoga for everyone. Postures, breathing, and meditation.
Yoga means union, true integration between body, mind and soul. The classes I share are therapeutic because in them we observe ourselves, get to know ourselves, and heal ourselves through postures, breathing exercises, and meditation. I share Integral Yoga because it integrates all the styles of yoga I've practiced and studied. But its roots are primarily Hattha Yoga, where we respect the cyclical nature of our internal solar and lunar energy channels. I have shared practices with all kinds of people, of all ages, everyone is welcome here. If you want to take a look at my experience
