Experienced and certified teacher from Delhi University

Both the dance forms are extremely graceful,both are too different and unique in their own way. Kathak has more freedom of movements than Bharatnatyam. Bharatnatyam is quite rigid. Kathak is mainly based on footwork with the percussion(tabla), whereas Bharatnatyam is based on hip movements.
