About
Guru Udupi Laxminarayan was born on September 17, 1926 into a family of orthodox Sanskrit scholars. As per the family tradition, Laxminarayan leant the Vedas and Sanskrit and after six years of school, joined the local Sanskrit college known as Sriman Madhwa Siddhanta Samskrita Mahapatasala. He enrolled himself in Bharatiya Nritya Kala Kendra at Dharwar to learn Carnatic music, but ended up learning dance from Srinivas Kulkarni, the principal of Bharatiya Nritya Kala Kendra. He moved to Chennai when he felt he wanted to further his training in classical dance. He learnt Bharatanatyam from Kanchipuram Ellappa Mudaliar through Gurukulavasam. Ellappa was a perfectionist who would spend even two months teaching a single adavu, if that was necessary.
