“A thing of beauty is joy for ever!” said W.B.Yeats
TAAD – The Art Appreciation Day @ Sancta Maria was conceived with this idea of celebrating beauty in any form of art.
A divine piece of painting, a spell-bound acting, the loftiest dance movements, the musical notes, the expressions, the colours, the nature itself; all remind us of the beauty of life. Our senses respond and appreciate the charms of art. Hence, the conception of TAAD @ Sancta Maria.
The first TAAD was organized on 24 June 2011 with Aparna (dance teacher) acquainting the children with the simplest of ‘mudras’ of classical dance.
We discovered that dance movements are innate to all beings and formal dancing is an improvised form of daily actions (even a traffic police dances with ‘mudras’ while giving direction!)
Unbelievably, during the session our children exhibited such enthusiasm that they were on stage with Aparna to follow her movements!
The final presentation by Aparna left everybody spell bound!
Thus ended the first TAAD @ Sancta Maria. Eagerly awaiting for the next!
Aparna, your dance speaks! We all loved listening to it.
