Ramya Harishankar combines the elegance, grace, and suppleness of the Vazhavoor School of Bharata Natyam with the distinctive ability to express all shapes of emotion with sensitivity and intuition. She has imbibed these qualities under legendary gurus: the late Sawmimalai K. Rajaratnam, and Padha Bhushan Kalanidhi Narayanan. In 1982, Ramya established the school Arpana, which has grown to become a premier school of Bharata Natyam in California.
