Bharatanatyam is more than an art form, it is a spiritual discipline, a cultural treasure, and a language of the soul. For Sharunitha, it has been a lifelong journey of rhythm, devotion, and expression.
A Journey Rooted in Tradition
Sharunitha embraced the discipline with unwavering dedication. Her training followed the gurukulam tradition, where every movement was honed with patience, every expression infused with emotion, and every step grounded in the wisdom of generations.
Under the able guidance of her esteemed guru, Smt. Deluchini Tishain, Sharunitha mastered the illustrious Kalakshetra bani, known for its precision, grace, and narrative depth. Her arangetram, presented through the celebrated repertoire of Krishnamachari, marked not only the culmination of years of rigorous practice but also the beginning of her journey as a performer and teacher.
More Than a Dance: A Calling
For Sharunitha, Bharatanatyam is not just performance, it is a dialogue between the dancer and the divine, a medium to preserve stories that have echoed through centuries. Each mudra (hand gesture), each adavus (basic step), and each abhinaya (expression) is a testament to the beauty of Indian classical heritage.
Her approach blends traditional technique with a deep emphasis on cultural understanding, ensuring that students don’t just learn the steps, but also the meaning, history, and emotion behind them.
