An Invitation to Odissi – Guru Sishya Saman, New Delhi

Welcome to

Sutra Foundation, a bastion of traditional and contemporary arts bequeathed to Malaysia by one of its sons, Datuk Ramli Ibrahim was established as a full-fledged and tax exempt Foundation in 2007 in order to secure its legacy for the future generations. It carries into the future the thread of Ramli’s vision and contribution to the Malaysian arts scene and strives to develop the breadth and depth of Malaysian performing and visual arts by stimulating the creative spirit of cross-cultural Malaysia.

Sutra Academy

Over the years, Sutra has developed an efficient methodology of training the dancer and preparing the body through an eclectic, specially designed ‘physical conditioning’ which effectively inculcates the correct posture, anga-sudha (the perfection of form and lines) and expressivity.

3D Immersive Virtual tour

Sutra Foundation, as an arts space, can now be viewed virtually. SF has created a virtual platform for Sutra House where viewers are able to take a virtual tour, not only of the inside but also the garden outside the building.

This will not only enhance and facilitate effectively our presentation of virtual exhibitions, but also for renting purposes.
We invite you to savour the beautiful space of Sutra House.
