KATHAKALI Originating in Kerala, Kathakali is the most refined, the most scientific and elaborately defined dance. It is regarded as the ballet of the east. It is very exciting art form demanding not only complete control of practically every fibre of the artist's body, but also intense sensitivity of emotion. Kathakali's popularity is largely due to poet Vathathol Narayan Menon.

KATHAK The popular dance form of North India, mainly in Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, Kathak narrates stories from epics. Later, mime and gesture were added to the recitation of Katha - story. The Radha - Krishna legend is the central theme. The kathak or story - teller of yore was a versatile actor - musician - dancer, who addressed himself directly to his audience. Famous Exponents : Sitara Devi, Birju Maharaj, Gopi Krishna, Binda Din Maharaj. Damyanti Joshi, Kalka din, Aachan Maharaj. Uma Sharma. ODISSI It is the classical dance of Orissa. It was evolved in the famous temple - Venkateshwara in Bhubaneshwar, the Jagannath Temple in Puri and the Konark Sun Temple. The 12th century poetic work Gita Govinda of Jayadeva dominates the poetical and musical content of this dance style. Its modern revival is credited to Kalichandra Kalicharan Patnaik. Samyukta Panigrahi had popularised the dance through her performances.

At first the Manipur followed the Shaivite faith enacting dance - drama on Lord Shiva and his consort Parvati. Lal Haraoba is the oldest style of the traditional dance of Manipur. There are three main Rasaleelas in the dance - Maha Rasa, Vasanta Rasa and Kunja Rasa. With the advent of Vaishnavism during the 15th and 16th centuries, Krishna and Radha became the principal divinities of Manipuri dance. Famous Exponents : Charu Mathur, Sadhna Bose, Guru Bipin Sinha, Jhaveri Sisters, T. Nadia Singh. KUCHIPUDI The Kuchipudi dance came into existence in the 17th century through the Bhakti cult in the small village of Kuchelapuram in Andhra Pradesh. It is the corresponding style of the Bhagavata Mela Nataka of Tamil Nadu. Except that the emphasis is on animation, the grammar is derived from the 'Natyashastras' and in all other aspects it is akin to Bharat Natyam. Tirtha Narayan and Siddendra Yogi evolved this style. The credit goes to Lakshmi Narayan Shastri for having brought renown to this dance during the 20th century. Famous Exponents : Yamini Krishnamurthy, Swapnasundari, Shobha Naidu Raja and Radha Reddy.

PO – SARPARA. PS- PALASBARI (MIRZA) DIST – KAMRUP (ASSAM) PIN NO _ 781122 MOBILE NO – 9854491051 0 HISTORY OF SATRIYA AND MANIPURI DANCE Satrya Dance: To know the history of Satriya dance firstly we have to mention that it is a unique and completely self creation of the great Guru Mahapurusha Shri Shankardeva. Shri Shankardeva was a polymath, a saint, scholar, great poet, play Wright, social-religious reformer and a figure of importance in cultural and religious history of Assam and India. In the 15th and 16th century, the founder of Nava Vaishnavism Mahapurusha Shri Shankardeva created the beautiful dance form which is used in the act called the Ankiya Bhaona. 1 Today it is recognised as a prime Indian classical dance like the Bharatnatyam, Odishi, and Kathak etc. According to the Natya Shastra, and Abhinaya Darpan it is found that before Shankardeva's time i.e. in the 2nd century BC. Some traditional dances were performed in ancient Assam. Again in the Kalika Purana, which was written in the 11th century, we found that in that time also there were uses of songs, musical instruments and dance along with Mudras of 108 types. Those Mudras are used in the Ojha Pali dance and Satriya dance later as the “Nritya“ and “Nritya hasta”. Besides, we found proof that in the temples of ancient Assam, there were use of “Nati” and “Devadashi Nritya” to please God.

  • Arts-Integrated Learning
    ARTS-INTEGRATED LEARNING THE FUTURE OF CREATIVE AND JOYFUL PEDAGOGY The NCF 2005 states, ”Aesthetic sensibility and experience being the prime sites of the growing child’s creativity, we must bring the arts squarely into the domain of the curricular, infusing them in all areas of learning while giving them an identity of their own at relevant stages. If we are to retain our unique cultural identity in all its diversity and richness, we need to integrate art education in the formal schooling of our students for helping them to apply art-based enquiry, investigation and exploration, critical thinking and creativity for a deeper understanding of the concepts/topics. This integration broadens the mind of the student and enables her / him to see the multi- disciplinary links between subjects/topics/real life. Art Education will continue to be an integral part of the curriculum, as a co-scholastic area and shall be mandatory for Classes I to X. Please find attached the rich cultural heritage of India and its cultural diversity in a tabular form for reading purpose.
