It's completely different from bollywood dance . It's " bharatnatyam " a form of dance in India. It's devotional and Devine. And lord Shiva is the deity who is worshiped and he is considered as "Natraj" the origin of dance and music, yoga and many other things.

First gather some information then do the reaction .. this not just a dance but it's a way of worshipping lord Shiva .. it's not easy to perform a single step .. until you are fully devoted

This kind of traditional dance need so many years of practice like 11

It's the pride of India. This is the Classical/Folk Dance of the Tamil Nadu state of India known as Bharatanatyam.Many popular bollywood dances have the same movements that of Indian Classical Dance.

Wow I'm literally regretting watching this reaction.. I suppose they low key made fun of the dance. Please don't react on any video that you don't understand. We Indians worship our culture.. it was really hurting seeing you two making fun of it. ( Maybe it was not intentional still can't help feeling bad about it) If you don't understand study about it first. Just as Korea is not only about Kpop. India too is not only about bollywood our culture is complex and has many many elements in it. If you're genuinely interested then you can study about it if you're not don't even bother reacting. PS: SORRY IF IT CAME OUT RUDE.

This is south India's traditional dance bharathanatyam ✨️I learned it for 4 years

Classical dance form India bharatnatayam this is great

That's not a pant or a skirt. It's a sari worn in a particular fashion. Shiva is the exponent of classical dance barathanatyam natyam means dance ,Bharat is original name of India named after king bharata. Shiva dance for is natraja.

Its simply not a foreigners or western culture cup of tea

This"" one of the hundreds""" of dance forms in INDIA...all the states in india have their own classical dance form...and its mind blowing and incredible how they all are diffent from each other.....lots of love from india💛🌸💝🌸💝🌸💘

I am practising barathanatinam for 7 years and i continues it till now.... At first it will be difficult But practicing makes you perfect... No workout needed the whole day... I became active and stress free after completing my dance practise i love this so much...

Listen this dance is a classical dance every step is damn hard.. It takes so many years of practice to do bharatnatyam

This dance MUST be done with perfection. Took me 4 years to learn basics alone and it’ll take me a few more years to get advanced enough for the arangetram (i hope i spelled this right). It’s kind of like a graduation of the dance where you showcase skill and stamina while dancing for 2 hours straight. It’s a huge deal and all your family and friends come. Bharatanatyam looks so much easier than it actually is. Your shoulders and thighs hurt a lot after dancing

It's not bollywood, it's pure classical dance forms of goads & it's not easy to learn

If you guys like classical then try "ODISHI CLASSIC DANCE" definitely you'll love it.

Bharatham people learn from 4/5 yrs it's a long process by the time u can master all the parts the dance form might seem easy but it isn't u need a neat finesse perfection...it's tough because it seem light....your hand n leg moment specially facial expressions are a must important skill there are so many people who have learnt this dance for nearly more than 15 yrs n still going on

Bollywood has no comparison with this . Bollywood is just adopting wester culture more . This is our rich true culture.

A background on the dance form: In the video you are watching Bharatnatyam which is a traditional dance form from South India. Yes, you need to learn it from a young age and it requires years of practice to master the art. Other traditional forms are: Manipuri, Kuchipudi, Kathak, Odissi, Kathakali, and so on. Besides these forms there are many folk dance forms as well as triable dance forms.

I'm an indian. This dance is the hardest dance. It looks very easy but this dance takes 7 to 8 yrs just to get a slight touch of perfection. This dance is pure feminine and its dedicated to Lord shiva.

it is not a bollywood dance , it is culture of tamil religeion and tamil nadu tredational dance .

Don't compare our traditional dance to shakra or Bollywood . Don't reaction on culture without knowing it because it's hurts when we see someone laughing like that . Every hand gesture and every movement have a meaning in our traditional dance.

It's not just dance dear Indian classical dance is kind of yoga ...and that was not pant shirt that's called saari different style and the music of this is also very difficult

Nataraj( form of Lord Shiva) is known as Lord of Dance or act

Need some respect guys.. This is not an ordinary dance.. It's the traditional hindu God dance..

Indian classical dance 👍👌🙏

I have been learning bharatanatyam since i was a 3rd grader and now i am in 9th grade and its been 6 years and i finished 1st junior level exam and i am preparing to write my 2nd senior level and then the last vidvath exam when i am 12th grade passout . I have danced and given programmes several times and now my stage fear has completely vanished. I am soooo happy and proud to be an INDIAN and am proud to be a bharatanatyam dancer .

You were mesmerized by the costume and the hand gestures but also take note of the intricate footwork. The ankle bells (ghungroo) sound in sync with the vocal beats. It takes years and years of dedicated study to acquire this level of mastery over the dance form.

Each expression and movement, describes Lord Shiva and may sometimes include a small storyline.

Its a story Om Nama shivay is the veneration n shivay is the God. 1:18 god with Crescent moon n River on his head, standing in his usual art form 1:32 god shiva with Crescent n snake, now in his fierce form of destruction n glory 2:00 lord of the mountain himalaya n the lord of Ganga the holy river of India. (The river of heaven came down to earth n hell bcuz of god shiva, out of his hair locks it flows on the earth so...) 2:07 lord of snakes 2:12 lord on his chariot 2:14 Fierce n 2:17 benevolent 2:20 lord riding his bull 2:21 - 2:58 lord of poetry n dance 2:59 lord holding his hand drum (that produces music aka life) 3:19 - 4:40 when he dances with his drum.. Life begins to form on planets... They are describing the earth n abundance from hand movements. Lol. Its temple dance not fun dance darling. It takes years of practice for every single pose/posture, the hand, face expression n feet movement, all change from every single step. One of the hardest dances. Takes years of practice. Story telling from hand gestures n body movements..

This is tamil nadu traditional dance bharadha naatiyam

yes it is Indian dance so graceful so amazing ....

Every mvement defines different signs in this dance

I've learnt this dance form and I can tell you for sure this is hard to master.

This is a traditional dance form . it takes lot of effort to learn. Many people studying different forms of classical dance from their childhood . So it takes many more year to learn it. It is more complex dance form we can only learn with help of professionals dancers.

I read the comments and just spared myself from watching. I have seen it so mant times when people from so called culture rich countries make mocking reaction videos. Shameful!

This is not Bollywood dance. It's our ancient gift bharathanatyam..

Just saying it’s considered to be disrespectful to perform dance or try steps without praying its one of the oldest and india traditional dance

Shakra's dance was a stereotypical view of indian dance form.tbey didnt took anything from original dance forms of india,its all what they think is india

We request the presenters to do research before presenting a video that represents a traditional dance form. I am sure you can find information on all this just by Googling it. This video actually shows the illpreparedness of the presenters. :/

Most of the Indian classical dances like bharatnatyam, kathak, and kuchipudi takes a lot of training and practices to perfect it from a very young age just like ballet's

It's it's truly incredible and glad to bron in India

Indian dance very hard practicing I love it

My man casually insulting this dance form with bollywood😂😂😂😂😂

Classical dances like BHARATNATYAM can't be done without a practice of at least few years. Each posture & movement says a meaning alongside expression. It's tough to keep ur body tight throughout & that's why IT REQUIRES IMMENSE PRACTICE.

The origin of this dance form Bharatnatyam ( the most ancient dance form of India) trace back to Natya Shastra, written by a sage which talked of performing arts and communicating spiritual themes through performing arts. It also talks of how a dance drama can be made to impart a transcendental experience to the performers.

All Indian classical dance r amazing

Every gesture in this dance resembles about Lord Shiva...

Originating from state in India called Tamil Nadu, this form is Bharathanaatyam which is famous globally . Yes , practise is needed everyday for about 2-3 years for basics which is most difficult and later on gets easier. This dance may have needed just about a couple of months practise for these expert dancers. The outfit is usually made of raw silk but these days you get a lot of fabric variety. Ornaments are usually silver gold plated but imitations are also worn .

Every mudra or the hand gesture and every moment has a meaning...the background song has no words or meaning its just the music n beats...a story about God shiva is narrated through various movements and hand gestures and facial.expression....not like hip hop or other western dance where u just move the body without any meaning ...every movement gesture here has a meaning...if u knew u wld hv understood the story

You have to see the Indian classical Kuchipudi dance

It serves as a meditation to me... I am trained in Bharatnatyam... it helps me focus...

I felt that you two really, didn't understood this classical form of dance . Each form , each mudra have significance and meaning , which you failed to understand.

Shiva do tandav to destroy earth so that it can take a new start and that's why we called him destroyer but he is my favourite

It's a type indian classical dance. There are many types of classical dance in India.

I'm a classical dancer too. I have trained myself for 9 years to get things perfect and on guard. Even though it was was hard but I love learning ❤️. I Love India .

Bharatanatyam---The word Bharata is a mnemonic, consisting of "bha"-"ra"-"ta".According to this belief, bha stands for bhava (feelings, emotions), ra stands for raga (melody, framework for musical notes), and ta stands for tala (rhythm).The term Natya is a Sanskrit word for "dance". The compound word Bharatanatyam thus connotes a dance that harmoniously expresses bhava, raga, and tala.

Buddha was an Indian prince who had a prophecy as child which said that he would either walk in the path of a great warrior and become a king whose greatness would be unmatched or he would walk in the path in search for enlightenment. Which was basically being an yogi. His birth name was Siddharth and he had a son named Rahul who took after his kingdom before he left. . . Warning : This might be incorrect because I've only heard about his life from my dad as a kid for my bedtime stories. Plus we Indians really do like to preach ancient religious events to the children for their bedtime stories or in general for better moral values. ✌❤❤

This dance shows the devotion of lord shiva

Plz react to siva tandav choreography by sayani chakraborty

One of the three dancers is a foreigner. Foreigners love learning Indian Classical dances. These dances give dancers and viewers a celestial happiness!

This dance very special unique in southindia

Shiva is lord of dance. For indians music and dance is equal to pray gods .its not just entertainment

Vanakkam 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️ from South india

It takes a lot of years to learn indian traditional dance

Most start learn bharathanatyam from 4 or 5 yrs. After so many yrs like 10 to 15 yrs of dedicated practice can become master. It's easy moments.

My state Odisha name is Odissi dance thanks🙂✌

What you have seen is just one page. there are many different dance styles kucchipudi, garba rass dandiya, bharatnayam, lavni etc.

I started when I was 6 and my teacher is still teaching me the first dance piece you learn. So you need a lot of practice

God Shiva is worshipped in India as in form "Nataraj",who expressed his emotions through dance which is called Shiva Tandava. Shiva Tandava is the most energetic dance form, and one needs rigorous training. There are many videos that you can follow-up in KZfaq.

It's not namaste it's Vanakkam 🙏

In India we have total 8 classical dances from different states plz react to them

This is a classical traditional dance called " Bharatanatayam". It's really difficult to learn and dance. It's really famous classical dance form. Bollywood dance is nothing in front to any Indian classical dance. You will be always amazed each time you see.

Yaa...it's one type of classical dance performances. ..it's very difficult performance. ...for long time practice with someone who teaches, their guidance learning. ..😊

That's not the skirts with pants...its a whole Saree stitched like that...and yes as u said they start practicing bharatanatyam from the very young age...like they start at age 5 or so...because at that age bones will be so tender and that age helps a lot in difficult bending movements...once we grow up those gestures will be soo soo difficult!!

One of the most difficult ancient dances, not easy to do

Thanks for reaction🙂✌🙏🏻

The dress is not pants and skirts 😂😂😅 it's a special type of 'saree' used for dancing .....

I learn Bharatanatyam for 7 years until the 7th grade. I regret giving it up so much rn..... :(

In Telangana state(hyderabad) we have "kuchipudi" classical dance, each state of India has different classical classical forms

I love Bharatanatyam

My legs are numb after watching this video😍🙈😂

You have a korean Oddisi dancer lives in India ,you can Google her.

Look at these beautiful guys who really want nd trying to understand classical dance of india, but in pur country there r too many peoples who don't know about bharatnatyam nd kuchipudi dancing, I'm a bharatnatyam nd kuchipudi dancer since 7 years also get 1, 2 prizes in my performances in competitions, also my dance teacher is really praise my dancing. Nowadays I practicing a bharatnatyam fusion dance beatboxing for annual function in my college, our vice principal mam see me dancing on that, she say that ur dancing doesn't matches on beats, actually we r three girls performing on different classical dance, one is performing kathak, other kuchipudi nd me bharatnatyam on beatboxing, u guys know how different these dance forms are, nd a teacher say u have to dance bharatnatyam fusion nd when i dance vice principal say that ur dance is different, cause other two girls don't know classical dance they only dance through the youtube, they dance really like 3 class dance cause we know that whether it is fusion or semi classical, the steps of that dance form is same only the beats nd song nd costumes will can be change or mixedup. Nd there is a choreographer who said me that people don't know what r u doing, but in bharatnatyam should we can add belly dancing, tango or hiphop? Just because u name it fusion or semi classical. Totally shit people who doesn't know the classical dance forms😤😤😬😡....... Huge respect u korean guys who really trying to understand the dance form... 🙏✌️👌👏👏👏👏 i wish I'm there or ur type of guys r here.

I worship lord Shiva.... no one has right to judge or make opinions on our god's and practices of worship...n if u wanna react first of all gather some info

You can see hand movements and such shapes in korean bhuddisam paintings because bhuddisam was formed from india and lord budh was also a hindu

I like this classical dance

Learning every mudra is quite difficult..its education ...people graduate from bharatnatyam...its a very complex art...u have to remember exactly the write mudra to represent any expression or for example ...forest flowers rivers ...everything is expressed through various gestures...even the dress and jewellery flowers everything has meaning behind it...its not hollow like bollywood dancing its very pure dharmic tradition of India..u must not even compare it with any other dance forms of west ...yes it can be compared with mohiniattam kuchipudi odissi kathakali manipuri and kathak..these are are classical dance forms of india..they are very different from other dance forms

Our God shiv shambhu'dance.

this dance is a form(bharatnatyam) of devotion and respect towards god and yourself and its all about respect so guys please respect the dance form is it very complex too

BharataNatyam is considered to the oldest form of dance and mother of all other style of classical dance in India. The classical Indian dance Bharatanatyam originated from the art of temple dancers in the South India state of Tamil Nadu. Bharatanatyam is reworked form of dance from the traditional sadir and combination of ( Bha)expression, (ra)music, (tha) beat and (natyam) dance. Bharatanatyam is the most popular styles of dance performed by male and female dancers.

I love your videos 😍😍😍😘😘

Shiva is a dancing god...

If you practice Indian classical dance forms... No need to learn YOGA... It's true... Just see the postures it's enough for a person to stay fit for the rest of life..
