Bharatanatyam

Bharatanatyam, also spelt Bharathanatyam, is a classical dance form of South India, said to be originated in Thanjavoor of Tamil Nadu. It was known as "Daasiyattam" since performed by Devadasies in temples of Tamil Nadu long ago. The name 'Bharatanatyam' is derived from three basic concepts of Bhava, Raga and Thaala. The modern Bharatanatyam was systematically regularized by well known 'Thanjavoor Brothers', Ponnayya, Chinnayya, Sivanandam and Vativelu.

Bharatanatyam Mysore style

Classical dance, particularly Bharatanatyam, has been practiced professionally as well as academically from ancient times in Karnataka, as is evident from Kannada literature, inscriptions, paintings. All the evidences point to there being a rich tradition of dance in Karnataka through the centuries to the present day. The Chalukyan sculptures at Badami and Aihole proclaim that the sculptors of Karnataka had a good knowledge of the Natyashastra in the 5th century itself. Classical dancing was studied as a regular course in the great universities of Talakadu, Talagunda, and Bulligavi between the 4th to 13th centuries. Karnataka's royalty not only patronized the art form, but also themselves danced, like the great danseuse, Queen Shantala, of

the Hoysala Empire.
