I’m Navyashree. My world is Bharatanatyam, music, yoga—everything that makes me feel alive and connected. I owe so much to my Guru, Sri P Praveen Kumar. His blessings guide me, always. Dance for me is bhakti, not just art. Directing Bharathadyuthi, I help students with their Rangabhivandane (stage debut). Digging into stories, like how Balaji got his name, and bringing them alive on stage with musicians from namma Bengaluru—that’s my bliss. ### My work - **Bharatanatyam Performances & Instruction**: I offer solo and group Bharatanatyam shows, plus mentorship and dance classes at Bharathadyuthi. - **Guru Parampara & Mentorship**: My dance follows the lineage of Sri P Praveen Kumar. I guide students through their own Rangabhivandane stage debut. - **Thematic Solo Recitals**: I create researched solo acts—like Venkatesha Shreesha thematic recital—mixing storytelling and choreography. - **Live Ensemble Experience**: Performing with live Carnatic ensemble—vocal, Nattuvangam, Mridangam, Veena, Flute—makes each show immersive. ## Book To book Navyashree K N, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'd%20like%20to%20book%20Navyashree%20K%20N.)
