I totally agree with you. It is so frustrating that the person filming got too close to the dancer and concentrated so much on her face and arms. The whole body makes the dance.

Classical Indian dances, Odissi especially is yoga in the form of dance. It is spiritual experience through music. It is self realisation and being one with the existence through rhythms . It is a pure art in that it captivates time, space and innermost emotions. Thanks for bringing forth such a lovely presentation of this art, the music and architecture is mesmerising as are you.

Nicely written and expressed, but Odissi dance is not yoga. None of the Indian classical dances are yoga, just like not all Indian food is a curry. Odissi is in particular an offering to God. Every facial expression (mudra), every hand gesture- each tells a part of the story

@internetultrageek If you understand the meaning of the word 'yoga' is any action we perform with intent, conscious or unconscious to link up with the Divine.

Would presume that qualifies as their form of yoga. Hari bol ! Shanti !

Define beautiful please

[@micheleharbaugh8271]

Anyone can find the definition of beautiful simply by looking at their own reflection.

This woman has one of the most infectious smiles I have ever seen.

There is something so universal about this. It goes straight to my heart, even though I am a middle-aged woman from the Netherlands.

You may be proud of your culture and music. Greetings from Hungary.

Tried Odissi for the first time today, it's SO hard! Everything I thought I knew about dancing... well it wasn't to much help. Like trying to learn a new, completely different language. I'd love to learn it properly!

[@Luvly2938]

I'm Indian, the musical instruments, singing and dancing is usually started at very early age. It's pure dedication. You can only do your best but don't be disappointed if it seems hard. Never give up. Your passion for dance will get you there one day. God bless!

[@alidahall8726]

I agree i find that these dances along with traditional music in any culture is started at a young age. Even the native americans when they go to pow wows or events and dress up in their regailia they start at a young age their parents at first make their regailia than they start making them when theyre old enough to do so it emparts their spirit into their regailia same with the drums or hoops or anything they make. Theyre very entuned with nature and their surroundings

I like(love) all of it, really much! Philipp Glass composed a music with a great artist of India. I believe this called "Passage". Really worth to listen to it. On a general tone, I love a culture of the world. India is one of my favorite.

She reminds me of the beautiful and detailed carvings on the ancient temples. Very beautiful. If I were a God looking down on her I would be very pleased😊 lovely dance.

Fascinante está dança, caminha para frente dançando e volta ao ponto de partida de costas. Incrível

[@mspuls1970]

I do wish it would show her full form throughout ... we miss much of her footwork.

[@greypilgrim2028]

Such sublime grace.

[@gforceforever]

That may be the point of having the long pant. Foot movement distracts.

[@mehreenmalik1869]

gforce no, in most dances, every single movement has a purpose and meaning, and especially with how intricate the footwork is in this dance I would’ve loved to see it
