Dear Editor,
I am looking for some good Bharathanatyam teacher at Dallas, Texas (either in the Kalakshetra style or a disciple of someone from there). If you can provide any information I would be grateful. Thanks and regards

Good coverage!
Dear Editor,
Thanks for the video coverage of Natya Darshan. Enjoyed it, only wish it was longer. For those of us who cannot make it for the season from the US, your site provides very good coverage.

Video reports on KB Dear Editor,
Excellent. It has helped people like me to have a glimpse of the festival. I used to attend it every every year from 1957. As I am here in USA , I could not attend the Music Festival this December, draw the pictures of the artists in action and get their signature. But Kutcheri Buzz has helped us to have a glimpse of the entire festival! Added to that, this Video coverage makes us feel as though we were actully present there! We thank all the people concerned in this regard.
We are also eagerly awaiting the report on Thiruvaiyaru Aradana, where I was fortunate to play on Kanjira for several artists a few years back.
Thanking you once again for the excellent service you provide for the Carnatic Music.

Archive the Aradhana
Dear Editor,
I am Priya visiting your website from OH in the US. For an ardent music lover like me, it was like being there in Thiruvaiyaru. Although I am very happy to learn about the reports on the festival, I was wondering if it was at all possible for you to archive the aradhana festival or atleast the Pancharathna renderings live/recorded so that we can listen. To me there is no fulfillment without listening.
Thank you....

Wish I was in Chennai
Dear Editor, I came all the way from the U.S. for Pongal and also with an idea of attending as many kutcheris as possible in Bangalore.But to my disappointment nothing is happening here and am leaving soon back to the U.S.How I wish I had made it to Chennai-but....sorry. Ramanavami celebrations are still a long way off. I only hope that some of our music ambassadors come to California, when I shall quench my thirst. May I take this opportunity to send you a belated "Pongal greetings". I also convey my appreciation of the very good work you have been doing...Keep it up and God bless you.

Yoga and Indian Dance
Dear Editor,
Just wanted to let you know that there is a beautiful article on the Divine Connection that is common to both Yoga and Indian dance in the July 2002 issue of 'Yoga Journal' magazine (pp 90 The Divine Dance). Published from Berkeley, California, this magazine is one of the most widely read Yoga magazines in the United States. Written by Shiva Rea, this well researched article wonderfully articulates the body mind and spirit connection that is essential to both Yoga and Indian dance. Its a keepsake if you are interested in either yoga or Indian classical dance. I am one of the artists interviewed and quoted in this article. Hope you enjoy reading it.
