Hastaswara School Of Dance
Hastaswara Performing Arts was established by Sangeetha Agarwal with the aim of promoting and spreading the classical art forms of Bharatanatyam and Carnatic music in Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C.
The word HastaSwara beautifully combines the words “Hasta” for Hasta Mudras or hand gestures and “Swara” meaning musical note. True to its name HastaSwara Performing Arts emphasizes South Indian classical dance and music forms of Bharatanatyam and Carnatic Music.
