Mark World Environment Day with Shwasam – A New Class by Rama Vaidyanathan On the occasion of World Environment Day this June 5th, Natyasutra is proud to release Shwasam, a new Bharatanatyam class by acclaimed dancer and choreographer Rama Vaidyanathan. Rooted in the timeless verses of Thirumoolar’s Thirumandiram, this composition celebrates the breath as the first rhythm of life-a sacred link between the dancer and the cosmos. Rama Vaidyanathan brings a unique philosophical and artistic vision to this piece, one where every breath becomes a step in the eternal dance of the universe. With detailed video lessons, in-depth demonstrations, a complete performance, and an original music composition by Dr. S. Vasudevan, Shwasam is now available exclusively on Natyasutraonline.com. This launch on World Environment Day is a reminder of the rhythms that connect us to nature, the self, and the divine. Visit our platform to begin learning this profound and meditative work.
