Bharatanatyam is all about graceful and sculpturesque poses. Hip Hop, on the other hand, is all about breaking, locking, and popping freestyle movements. Both the dance forms are, however, absolutely amazing. Ever wondered how a crossover between the two will look like? This video shared by YouTube on their official Instagram profile will give you a clue.

“This week on crossovers nobody asked for but everybody deserves - Hip Hop X Bharatham,” YouTube wrote while sharing the video.

It was originally shared on YouTuber Usha Jey’s personal profile on August. “I call this #HybridBharatham and this is my way of mixing 2 styles that I love. Hip-Hop will always be my first love, but I have a big affection for Bharatham. I’m not an expert of Bharatham yet, but I will be,” Jey wrote.
