	Indian Heartbeat Dance
		Bharathanatyam attempts to portray through rhythmic movement, facial expression and symbolic gestures, the spiritual awakening of the human soul and its longing for enlightenment.
		Bharathanatyam is one of the most subtle, sophisticated and graceful styles of dance art in the world.
		Whereas in other techniques, there are many actors and dancers, in Bharathanatyam a solo dancer has to interpret by herself an entire story with no other aid but the movements of her body, the ever-changing expressiveness of her face and the gestures of her hands.

		A Bharathanatyam recital resembles the structure of a Hindu temple: first, one passes through the gopuram (outer gate) of alarippu, then one crosses the ardhamandapam (midway hall) of jatiswaram, next the mandapam (great hall of worship) of sabdam and enter the heart of the temple in the varnam.
		Bharathanatyam is an attempt to embody the divine beauty, charm, rhythms and symbols that exist in heaven.
		Bharathanatyam is a means of spiritual elevation both for the dancer and the audience.

	Is Bharathanatyam Perpetuating a Patriarchal Paradigm? - Anita Ratnam
		Each time the dancer steps onto the stage, she is sacrificing herself to the greedy outstretched arms of the audience which desperately wants to experience what it cannot or has denied itself.
		The classical Bharathanatyam dancer invites the spectator to gaze upon a distanced, ideal world where the female dancer is traced as sylph and cipher, a necessary absence.
		A Bharathanatyam nayika is usually a delicate figure, a ‘Dresden doll’ preoccupied with decorating herself for the sake of her man. Her body becomes a flexible zone - interleaved, crossed and composed, encrusted with multiple discourses and constructed in different languages, tempos and places and linked to the present with portrayed and received images.

		The dancer becomes a Nayika or "heroine", who yearns to realise Bliss as she unites with her Nayaka or "Supreme Lover" and "Divine Lord".
		Bharathanatyam is a harmonious blend of expressions (Bhava), melody (Raga) and rhythm (Thala); Natyam meaning Dance.
		In Bharathanatyam, the dancer is the story teller and the language is of hand gestures and facial expressions.

	The Changing Faces of Bharatnatyam, a Classical Indian Dance Form - Part 2
		All the dancers had to learn the nattuvangam (rhythm based recitation in a structured format that co-ordinates with foot movements) and the technique of using the cymbals.
		It is believed that a skilled dancer should be able to communicate the theme of the dance to the audience with abhinaya (expressions) and nritta (foot movements).
		A group of eight dancers was used to elucidate the nationalistic theme and the audience appreciated the dance very well.

		She was obviously refering to the arguments that Rukmini Devi killed shringara in Bharathanatyam and this had done great harm to the devadasi traditions and to devadasis.
		Dancers who straddle two cultures have these dichotomy I guess about going back to a period earlier than the roots and working at re-establishing a lost tradition while being extremely adventurous in contemporary choreography.
		One afternoon slot was set aside for dancers in the US among whom Payal Shah impressed both with her contemporary dance and her traditional Kathak.

		Like Bharathanatyam, Mohiniyaattam is primarily intended as a solo dance to be performed by girls only, and its technical structure is quite similar to the former.
		Mohiniyaattam was, in many respects, a rebellion against the austere disciplines of Bharathanatyam and Kathakali, and it represents one aspect of the blossoming of the Malayali genius in the realm of arts.
		While the Bharathanatyam dancer has to "subjugate her personality into the mainstream of Bhakthi, the Mohiniyaattam dancer strives to project her vivacious personality" and to reflect the Maya (illusory) or Mohini-roopam of Lord Vishnu which charms everyone.

		This group of musicians looked well rehearsed and did not falter at any point of time, which is the greatest boon for dancers on stage.
		At times, it seemed like she was overshadowing the Bharathanatyam dancer (may be because we don’t get to see Kathak in Chennai as much as Bharathanatyam?).
		G Narendra is a Chennai based Bharatanatyam dancer who has choreographed for productions like The Living Tree as well as items for different types of recorded music like Yanni, Pandit Bhimsen Joshi’s Hindustani music and even film music from Lagaan.

		The first references to the Bharathanatyam dance form are to be found in Silapatikaram, epic poetry composed during the early Golden Age of the Tamil culture which extends from 500 B.C. to 500 A.D. Bharathanatyam is a 2500 year old dance form rooted in classical literature, especially poetry, and most especially, poetry set to music.
		The ambassador continues, "Bharathanatyam dance places rhythm, melody, mood, movement, and music together in one continuum which leads to self-fulfillment in the fullest scope.
		Even during the long pauses while technicians attempt to find the music for the next dance, dancers and audience are united in frustration.
