BENEFITS OF BHARATNATYAM

Improves flexibility: Bharatanatyam is associated with facial expressions and non-verbal communication. In this dance form hand gestures and facial expressions are used to communicate and express feelings. Sometimes even props are used to add to the visual element. Various Mudras (symbols and positions) formulate the dance form. The Mudras work out various body parts and improve flexibility.

Improves stamina: Bharatanatyam movements make use of various muscle tissues. A few hours of practice can give you good exercise and improve your stamina. Practicing Bharatanatyam boosts endurance. Moving all limbs together at the same time, while the eyes follow whatever the hands do, requires a lot of stamina. Getting a single step perfectly correct slowly can take time but it builds stamina.

Imparts Discipline: Being disciplined is of prime importance in one’s life, for it is a key factor that determines your success. Bharatanatyam is one such dance form that dwells on discipline. The patient practices of the adavu along with guru bhakthi propagated by this dance ensure that the child is disciplined from an early age.

Augments the mind & improves concentration: Learning Bharatanatyam helps in improving the mental faculties of the children. The subtle movements of the feet along with the hand-eye coordination in the adavu (steps) help the child to have a lucid and sharp mind.
