Natyashastra- To ponder !

We are sooooo happy to share with you our privilege of having Legendary Dancer ,Scholar Padmabhushan Dr.Padma Subramaniam & renowned Sanskrit scholar Dr.Shathavadhani .R.Ganesh at our studio doing a weeklong shibira ( workshop) offering insights into Natyashastra- the Ancient Indian Scripture on Dramaturgy.

This event is presented as a fund raiser for the Bharatha Ilango Trust envisioned by Dr.Padma to have a memorial in the name of Sage Bharata which will be the first one ever in his country.
It is our good fortune to co-ordinate from ADC this workshop which is happening for a week from July 4th to 10th July 2011.
We are so happy & grateful that our dance studio is charged by the energies of 85 dancers (teachers ,professionals & students) from all over Karnataka ,Goa,Poona ,Hong Kong & USA who are here participating in this event.
Here are some images of the first day session.
The knowledge /wisdom that these masters offer is something to ponder ! 
We shall be sharing more information of the event shortly with more pictures.
Thank you.
Forever in love with Arts
Nirupama & Rajendra
