This was a great program. The students were engaged and they learned something about this style of dance that they may not have known before. Additionally, our students who are of Indian descent enjoyed the fact that their classmates were learning more about their culture. We are hopeful that many of them continued discussions as they went back to their classrooms.

Description
Originating in Hindu temples more than 2,000 years ago, traditional Indian dance combines fluid movement with complex melodies and rhythmic patterns. With Ramya Ramnarayan students experience the role dance has in the cultural and spiritual life of India. Adorned with beautiful costumes, jewelry, and makeup and using ritual hand gestures called mudras, the dancers present a common language of expression that is both physical and poetic.
