Anne Louise MerrillMy Bharatanatyam (Indian Classical Dance) teacher is offering a free trial class on Monday and starting a new beginners cohort. Eszter trained in India for 10 years and studying with her is a rare opportunity to learn one of the most ancient dance forms on the planet. I’m loving learning a visual language and new movement patterns, especially the challenging mudras (hand positions). Contact me directly and I will send you Ezster’s number.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Berlin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Berlin</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Bharatanatyam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Bharatanatyam</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Dance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Dance</a>
