Hello KJG,

let me try to understand that you mean dance gurus are a different kind from other spiritual gurus?
Once I get a well translated edition of the natya shastra I might come to understand the requirements of a dance guru as laid down by tradition. A while ago I read a very „scary“ ebook about gurus
for free download in pdf from
http://www.strippingthegurus.com/
and I just hope dance gurus are saved from these problems. The book was written by a musician
and it does not reflect my opinion on gurus, but maybe it answers your question?

Regarding naming one dance guru that can confere moksha nowadays?
I read that the original ancient natya shastra was telling about seven rasas, much later
a new rasa, santa rasa was added. This rasa possibly could be compared to moksha, and
there should be dance gurus who can educate in this rasa? I read atleast of one catholic priest from
Bangalore, Pater Joachim Andrade who performs BN within his daily ritual at his local church (temple)
In southern Brazil and I am confident that he can confere moksha. I found only one link in german language about this.

I hope this helps?
