Bharatanatyam is one of the oldest classical dance forms of India, with a history spanning over 2,000 years. Originating in Tamil Nadu, this art form seamlessly blends movement, expression, and rhythm into a unique practice that nurtures both body and mind. Known for its grace and precision, Bharatanatyam is a comprehensive dance style that integrates key elements for a holistic experience.
The history of the Phoenix?
There has been a cinema here since 1913. Orginally it the 'North Oxford Kinema', since when it has passed through many hands and names, including the Scala, the New Scala, the Studios 1 and 2, Studio X (a club showing soft porn) and finally in 1977 the Phoenix.
Why Jericho still has such a mix of houses?
Jericho's intriguing mix of housing today owes a lot, to the Residents' Association in the 1960s and 1970s which together with the then Vicar and some local councillors resisted plans to bulldoze the whole area and turn it over to offices and light industrial use.
