The students of Bournemouth Bharatanatyam Dance Classes will be showcasing their traditional Indian dances at 12:30pm on our Community Stage!

Here’s some information about the importance of dance in Indian culture from Kamalesh, the leader of these classes: Dance has traditionally been an important part of the rich cultural heritage of India. Historically, dance has been used in celebrations and religious observances. It is a form of creative expression through movement accompanied by music, with historical cultural significance and modern pop-cultural significance thanks to the influence of TV and movies.
