OVERVIEW
This online course includes storytelling sessions and activity-based lessons to evoke children’s natural explorative senses of discovering more about the world.
Training in performing arts like dance is an excellent way of encouraging all-round development of children and adolescents. It brings together the mind, body, and soul while acting as a creative outlet.
Art is a valuable tool for transforming education as it sensitizes people and implores them to look at the world holistically. Moreover, Indian classical dance forms are as good as Yoga, owing to their many health benefits and concentration-building powers. Bharatnatyam is a combination of Nritya (dance postures) and Natya (drama and poems), making it a creative medium for sensing, identifying, and communicating feelings and ideas.
