Being Ready

Posted on October 5, 2017October 5, 2017 by Nitya Narasimhan in Uncategorized

A few years back, I would have jumped at an opportunity to teach dance. In my head, it was just an opportunity to dance. In fact I remember I started a small informal dance class at Oracle. It was a way for me to be in touch with my bharatanatyam and I gladly grabbed the … Continue reading Being Ready →

We can interpret this in an artistic context to mean the essence of the performance as perceived by the audience.

Happy birthday my furever baby 😘 I love you to the moon and back. When I got desperate and danced to a trikala jathi just before stepping out (aka forever ready before sarvesh) without any warm up or any preparation after 8 frustrating days of sickness + clingy child care. Someone cooperated and chilled out for 2 minutes and made this possible for which I am grateful. Will post my attempt at doing a second jathi sometime when the foreground protest got louder than the background music šŸ˜‚ Feeling excited and hopeful as I launch the renewed vision for @prayuktiarts today. Bhairavi Swarajathi Who am I? šŸ˜… #aworkinprogress This ragam is just ā™„ļø Heart is full ā™„ļø It’s been a heavy kinda day.. This was the only respite. The second half of a varnam has always had some kind of effect on my energy. Danced this over and over until I could feel momentarily light in my heart and escape from the absolutely horrifying politics that is going on in this goddamned country! Back to feeling the knot in my chest now. Seriously, what is going on and how is this okay?! It’s been a while since I have performed on stage but there’s a lot of joy I have rediscovered through and in dance the past few months.
