Personalized Bharatanatyam Classes for beginners and intermediate level, all age groups.
Hello! I’m Sreelekshmi from the scenic state of Kerala in South India. I’ve been passionate about Bharatanatyam since childhood and have had the privilege of performing on numerous stages across India. Currently, I am learning under the guidance of Smt. Meera Sreenarayanan.
Bharatanatyam has not only enhanced my physical strength, stamina, and endurance, but also sharpened my mental focus, discipline, and concentration. The art form’s intricate movements, when practiced with dedication, contribute to one’s overall development. Having recently moved to Vienna, I’m excited to share my knowledge and love for Bharatanatyam through this platform.
Bharatanatyam, a classical dance form originating from Tamil Nadu, India, is known for its grace, purity, tenderness, and sculpturesque poses. This vibrant dance form involves postures such as a fixed upper torso, bent legs, and flexed knees, combined with footwork, and a vocabulary of sign language based on gestures of hands, eyes, and face muscles. Here are some key points about my Bharatanatyam classes:
Structure of Bharatanatyam Classes:
1. Basic Level (Beginner)
- Adavus: Basic steps and movements
- Postures: Learning the basic stance (Aramandi)
- Hastas: Hand gestures and their meanings
- Rhythmic Patterns: Understanding of Talam (rhythm)
- Simple Dance Items: Alarippu (an invocatory piece)
2. Intermediate Level
- Complex Adavus: More advanced steps
- Nritta: Pure dance without emotions
- Nritya: Expressive dance with emotions
- Jathiswaram: A dance item that combines adavus and rhythmic patterns
Duration and Frequency
- Classes: Typically held weekly, with each session lasting 1-2 hours. Classes can be tailored according to the needs of the individual.
- Practice: Daily practice is encouraged for better proficiency.
Requirements

Quality Webcam
- Resolution: At least 720p HD, though 1080p is preferable for better clarity.
- Frame Rate: 30 frames per second (fps) is adequate for smooth video.

- Lighting: Ensure good lighting in the room for a clear video feed.
- Laptop/PC: A device with good processing power to handle video calls without lag.

Practical Tips

"Online Turkish Lessons with a Guaranteed Speaking Practice with a Turkish Teacher 🤓 / Over 6 Years of Experience 👨💻 / Easy Learning MetHello, my name is Yunus. I'm Turkish and live in Izmir. I can't wait to learn Turkish with you.🤗 I love teaching Turkish. If you want, I would like to briefly tell you how we can learn Turkish.🤓 First, in our first lesson, we determine your level together📝 and start our lessons suitable for your level. Our lessons include reading📕, writing✏️, listening🧏🏽♀️, and speaking🗣️. I want you to read and translate reading passages in the reading section. Here, we write down and memorize the new words and verbs we learn.🧠 Then, after listening to a text related to our topic, I want you to explain in Turkish what you understood. Of course, understanding the texts might be a bit difficult at first, but we overcome this and learn together. 💪Then, we come to the most fun part, of course, the speaking part. In this part, we talk about the texts we have read and listened to before. Of course, we try to use new words and verbs more. I love people who talk a lot in my classes. It's not a problem even if it gives me a bit of a headache🤕😁 As long as you learn🙏❤️. And finally, I give you a writing assignment related to the topic and eagerly await our next lesson. Also, you can contact me anytime outside of class.📲 I look forward to having you in my class and getting to know you and learning Turkish together. Take care.👋🏾

Yoga & Meditation with an International Certified Teacher!Yoga is a way of life! All you have to do is set aside some time and leave the rest to me. The process will make you feel better. You will enjoy this journey:)
Yoga is much more than what we see on social media ;)
Yoga was first referenced in the ancient sacred Rig Ved literature. Yoga = Yuj/Yoke/unite-union-joining (with the divine wisdom of the universe). Yoga, according to yoga sutra philosophy, is concentration. It is a holistic science based on yoga philosophy. It encompasses the whole person: body, mind, intellect, and consciousness.
We will concentrate on your personalized approach!! Especially for you! You will have my whole attention. Bring back the ability to breathe, relax, and regenerate while performing some amazing asanas, kriya, mudra, and pranayama. There are many more. After the practice, you will feel revitalized. Consider it. These sensations are positive and will carry over into your daily lives.
Take a deep breath and don't think too hard. Schedule a session and enjoy the ride!
I teach overseas, in addition to business organizations and individual customers.
Aside from Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga, I understand you and work accordingly.
So, let's see you on the mat.
NAMASTE
