ABOUT THE ARTIST
|
Aishwarya Balasubramanian:
Aishwarya Balasubramanian is one of Chennai’s most popular Bharathnatyam dancers and the senior most student of renowned Guru Acharya Choodamani Smt. Anitha Guha. Aishwarya Balasubramanian began her career early, as a five year old student and performer at Anitha Guha’s Bharathanjali, stunning audiences with her amazing grace, clarity of footwork and beauty of expression. Over the years, with intense training, inherent commitment and a rigorous discipline, Aishwarya has evolved into a much sought after performing artiste, presenting across cultural organizations in India and overseas at premier dance festivals and prominent sabhas. Titles like “Singar Mani”, “Kala ratna”, “Natya Chudar” that have been bestowed on Aishwarya are not just a reflection of her astonishing potential and promise but an acknowledgement of a dancer who leads her generation by setting exacting standards. Among the several dancers new to me, one of the most admirable was Aishwarya Narayanaswamy Balasubramanian. This young dancer was another cause for delight, showing biting musical precision.

All the while, feet, arms, thighs and head make their vivid contributions; the precision of Ms. Balasubramanian’s footwork was a keen pleasure in itself By ALASTAIR MACAULAY / The New York Times / Aug. 30, 2015 / Erasing Borders Festival, NewYork. The shapes she creates have the solidity and seeming permanence of sculpture. By Marina Harss / DanceTabs / Aug. 31, 2015 / Erasing Borders Festival, NewYork. She currently runs her dance school ‘Arpanam’ in USA, teaching and nurturing this beautiful art form to many enthusiastic art lovers. |
