Freedom of Movement: Bharatanatyam
Expressive, playful, beautiful & infectious. 

What is it?
Dance has always shared traditions, stories and myths. It allows us to step into a place of self-discovery. The language is universal and can unite people of all ages and cultures.

This project offers a space for people to come together, learn from each other and celebrate the unique tradition and art form of Bharatanatyam dance. It is an opportunity to explore expressive storytelling by blending rhythm, movement, music and emotion.

The ensemble will work towards developing a new, short piece of theatre, blending the beauty of traditional movement with a contemporary narrative.

Join the movement! 

What will I get from taking part?

  • Discover the joy of movement
  • Be inspired to tell stories
  • Learn a new art form
  • Be part of a community feeling of well-being and togetherness
  • Gain a deeper understanding of yourself, others and our world
  • Foster connections

Who will be leading the project?
Anne Tiburtius has over 45 years of experience in Bharatanatyam, a classical form of dance from South India. She is artistic director of Natyapriya, a dance company specialising in Indian classical and folk dancing. Anne also specialises in dance-drama and compositions that are a synthesis of styles which often incorporate the spoken word.
