About:
Kalakshetra Foundation is an arts and cultural academy dedicated to the preservation of traditional values in Indian art and crafts, especially in the field of Bharatanatyam dance and Gandharvaveda music.
It is based in Chennai.
It was founded in 1936 by Rukmini Devi Arundale and her husband George Arundale.
In 1994, an Act of the Parliament of India recognised the Kalakshetra Foundation as an "Institute of National Importance."
The Kalakshetra style of Bharatanatyam developed by Rukmini Devi Arundale is noted for its angular, straight, ballet-like kinesthetics, and its avoidance of Recakas and of the uninhibited throw (Ksepa) of the limbs.
