Description

Classical Dances of India: Technicalities and rigid guidelines are a big part of classical dances. The technical underpinnings of all traditional dance forms are laid down in Acharya Nandikeshawara’s “Abhinaya Darpan,” Sharangdev’s “Sangeet Ratnakar,” and the Natya Shastra (which includes their body movements, rasa, bhava etc). According to India’s Ministry of Culture, there are nine recognised classical dances. Dance is first mentioned in a well-known work in Bharat Muni of Natya Shastra. Folk and classical dances are just two of the many types of dance practised in India.Dance FormsLocationSignificanceBharatanatyam Tamil NaduBharatnatyam is an ekaharya dance genre in which a single dancer represents numerous roles in a single performance.One of the most crucial texts for understanding the technique and grammar of body movement in Bharatnatyam dance is Nandikesvara’s Abhinaya Darpana.Kuchipudi Andhra PradeshKuchipudi is the name of a village with a long tradition of dance-drama in Andhra Pradesh’s Krishna district. Its general moniker was yakshagaana.The Kuchipudi style of yakshagana was developed in the 17th century by Siddhendra Yogi. It is performed in groups because it is a dance play.Kathakali KeralaKathakali is a form of Indian theatre that dramatises tales from Indian epics while including dance, music, and acting.Varying hues on the face signify various mental states and personalities, such as green for nobility, black for wickedness, and crimson patches for monarchy and evil.It is impossible to overestimate the significance of eye movements, facial emotions, and hand gestures.Mohiniyattam KeralaMohiniyattam, also known as the dance of Mohini, is the traditional solo dancing style of Kerala (an incarnation of Lord Vishnu).In the 1709 book Vyavahara Mala by Mazhamagalam Narayanan Namputiri, Mohiniyattam is mentioned.Odissi OdishaThe performance’s principal themes are Lord Vishnu’s incarnations and passages from Jayadeva’s Gita Govinda.The neck, torso, and knees of the body are deflected in Tribhanga and Chowk, respectively, which are the two main postures (a position imitating a square).
