Bharata Natyam: The dance of mind and soul. It is an Indian classical dance form which is originated in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It has its inspirations from the sculptures of the ancient temple of Chidambaram, the temple of Hindu God Shiva ( Nataraja).

In ancient times it was performed as Dasiattam by Mandira Devadasis ( Hindu temple dancers ). Many of the ancient sculptures in Hindu temples are based on Bharata Natyam Karanas (dance postures).

This dance is known for its grace, purity, tenderness, statuesque & sculpturesque poses. It uplifts the dancer and the beholder to a higher level of spiritual consciousness. The dancer is considered as a worshiper, worshiper of the Divine.
Bharata Natyam, as the name depicts is the combination of expression, music, rhythm & dance in Tamil.
The general interpretation for the name is Bhava(expression) + Raga (music) + TAla(rhythm) + NATYAM(dance) = Bharatanatyam
