Tribhanga School of Dance

Tribhanga School of Dance (TSD) was established in 2004 with a mission of preserving and promoting the Indian classical dance form of Bharatanatya. TSD trains students in the Thanjavur tradition of Bharatanatya and follows a rigorous dance curriculum with an emphasis on grace, precision of movements and devotion. The aim is to provide students a holistic education in Bharatanatya and assist in their personal development so that they become competent dancers as well as well-rounded, confident individuals. In addition to providing dance instruction, the students are taught dance theory, costume, make-up and self-adornment for performances. Intermediate and senior students have numerous opportunities for stage performances that allow them to establish themselves as confident performers. All students are encouraged to make Bharatanatya a part of their lives and not merely a hobby. TSD presents productions in the traditional format with themes taken from Hindu theology, Indian history, and the Indian culture. Regardless of the production theme or venue, the goal of all performances is to engage the audience, provoke interest, engage in dialogue, and proliferate knowledge of Bharatanatya.
