Indian Classical Dance -Bharatanatyam for Beginners

In each session of this course, I emphasize a specific hand gesture and set of basic steps in varying counts. 


This course is beginner-friendly. So, whether your child is new to dance or has had experience with other dance forms, there is something for all learners in this course. 
In each weekly class, we will go through 
- Introduction and welcoming new students
 - Stretching and warming exercise
- "Namaskara" or Indian style greetings
- practice previpus lessons
Learn hand gestures and specific movements. I will break down every gesture and movement; students will copy me to begin with and then practice alongside everyone
 - Cool down; review the lesson, ask questions and sign off. 
 
Note: This outline may change slightly depending on students’ abilities and overall class progress
Class Outline: 
The course will teach the first four sets of the basic steps (adavus) which range from 2 to 8 count movements involving feet movements with or without hand gestures

In each class, we will learn 2 to 3 steps with a set along with hand movements and gestures
