Toutes mes condoléances 💐!
Pour la famille et pour les proches !

My first bharata natyam guru Mrs. Mamata Niyogi Nakra passed away peacefully in her Montreal home on Friday. I was the first student to graduate/ Ranga Parvesh from her dance school, Kala Bharati, in 1983. We travelled together to India a few times, including my first full bharata natyam performance with a live orchestra at the FICCI auditorium in Delhi, following my first Canadian dance tour in 1986 with guru Govindarajan and orchestra. Here on the picture in Chidambaram in 1985. May her soul Rest In Peace.🙏🙏🙏 Pranams.

Jai Govinda

Aujourd'hui, la Guru Purnima, je voudrais remercier de tout coeur Jai Govinda pour m'avoir guidée et inspirée depuis 1990 sur la voie du Bharata Natyam. J'ai une très grande reconnaissante envers son enseignement de qualité, sa grande générosité et son dévouement intense à cet art magnifique. Gratitude ! 🥰
