Dance is the exercise of the body, mind, and soul. One such dance form that always keeps everyone on its toes, quite literally, is the ballet. To honor the birth of the creator of modern ballet, Jean George Nouverre, the world celebrates International Dance Day on 29th April every year. Ballet is one of the oldest classical dance forms in the world and a very difficult one to master too!
It’s no secret that Indian classical dance has now become world-famous! In fact, Kathak is one of the top 10 popular dance forms to reach a global audience. Bharatnatyam, Odissi, Kuchipudi, Kathakali and Mohiniattam are well-known Indian classical dances, each with their own cultural history and background. The poise, the expressions, the eye movements and the sound of ‘ghungroo’ with the tapping of feet sum up the idea of all Indian classical dances! Not just a sight to behold for the eyes, each of these dances have a huge list of health and behavioral benefits attached to it!
This International Dance Day, let us take a look at the importance of dance and other health benefits of dance to lead a blissful life!
The slow pause in some of the steps in Indian classical dance demands patience not just from the mind, but from the body as well. After a few classes or rehearsals, your kid will be able to observe patience in himself/herself even while breathing!
Dance is not just moving your hands and legs to match the tune of a song. It’s a lot more than that! To learn the rhythm of the steps being performed, one just might learn the rhythm of everything else in life! A child will learn to understand the capacities of his or her own body, maintain a balance between the mind, the body and feelings and to channel it out in a positive and expressive way. They not just learn to express themselves but also present themselves as confident and sound human beings.
So, what are you waiting for? Encourage your kids to try out any one or all of these popular Indian classical dance forms on this International Dance Day and watch them unfold their hidden abilities on the count of five, six, seven, eight!
