Sloka Iyengar : Bharatanatyam for Creative Aging
S2 E8
My guest today is Sloka Iyengar, classically-trained Bharatanatyam dancer & neuroscientist. Discover how this Indian 2000-year old dance and spiritual practice remains so relevant today. As we inevitably age, learn how it may improve your relationship to yourself, others and Life itself.
Find out how Sloka brought innovation to Bharatanatyam through her creativity. Join us & learn the Parrot 🦜 gesture and discover her very own contribution to Bharatanatyam : the Bat 🦇 gesture! The intersection between tradition, innovation & creativity never cease to amaze me :)
