I am Kumar Krishna Saikia, also known as Krishna Jadumoni Barbayan, a dedicated artist carrying forward the rich legacy of Assam’s Sattriya Dance, Music, and Art. My journey began at the age of five when I was initiated into Uttar Kamalabari Satra, a revered center of Vaishnavite culture.
Born into a family deeply rooted in Sattriya traditions, I have trained under esteemed Gurus, refining my skills in Nrittya, Gayan, Bayan, Ankiya Bhaona, and Ojha. Over the years, I have had the privilege of performing on national and international stages, sharing the essence of this timeless art form.
With a blend of artistic dedication and academic expertise, I am committed to preserving and promoting Assam’s cultural heritage.
My Cultural Journey
I have had the privilege of performing extensively and conducting workshops both in India and internationally. Sharing the rich heritage of Sattriya dance and culture with diverse audiences has been a profoundly enriching experience.
“Sattriya is more than just a dance form—it is a living tradition, a spiritual expression, and a bridge between history and the present. Through my performances and teachings, I strive to keep this sacred art alive, sharing its depth, grace, and storytelling with the world.”
— Krishna Jadumoni Barbayan
