Save the date for Namaste Canada 2023!
Experience a great Indian cultural extravaganza at Namaste Canada 2023 this fall. The event unfolds with a diverse range of captivating performances that highlight India’s rich cultural heritage. Traditional dances from different states, such as Bharatanatyam, Kathak, Odissi etc. transport you to the world of grace, rhythm, and storytelling. The dancers, dressed in vibrant costumes adorned with intricate embroidery, exude elegance and precision as they perform intricate footwork and emotive expressions.
I have been attending Namaste Canada events since its inception in 2016. I also volunteer at the event and help in promotion of the event.
