WHY INDIAN DANCE
One  of the ways in which people express happiness, any where in the  world is  through celebration with song and dances. Excessive pace has become the   password of the day. Tending to one's career and family seems to leave little
  time for tending to oneself. Just as a machine needs oiling, the body and the   mind require replenishing, nourishing activities in order to thrive. Indian  Classical Dances embody a whole spiritual force. It offers a tranquility, a   serenity in which one can first lose and then rediscover the inner core of  one's  identity.


WHY INDIAN DANCE
Indian  dance was first created by Lord Shiva. One of the forms of  Shiva is Natraj who  creates and destroys through his cosmic dance. Later, his  art was passed on to  the human world by the yogis, Narad and Bharat Muni,  through the ancient books  known as the Rig Vedas and Natya Sastra. In these  books the authors write about  the science behind dance and drama. Shri Natraj  School of Dance was founded to  embolden this theme with a mission of promoting  and educating Indian dance in  great city of Houston, TX.
