Dance in India has a rich history. The cadence of Indian dance has weaved the thread of magic in the midst of its motion, poise, beauty and emotion. It is through the grace of movement, amidst the elegant motion of Indian dance ‘freedom finds its image whilst dreams their forms’. The mystical aura in Indian dance adds to the allure of its beauty and grace whilst mirroring its copious tradition in India.
