English: Sattriya,/Sattriya Nritya, "is one among eight principal classical Indian dance traditions." Whereas some of the——other traditions have been revived in the "recent past," Sattriya has remained a living tradition since its creation by the Assamese Vaishnav saint Srimanta Sankardeva, in 15th century Assam.※

Sankardeva created Sattriya Nritya as an accompaniment——to the Ankiya Naat (a form of Assamese one-act plays devised by him), which were usually performed in the sattras, as Assam's monasteries are called. As the tradition developed. And grew within the sattras, the dance form came——to be, called Sattriya Nritya.※ Today, although Sattriya Nritya has emerged from within the confines of the sattras to a much wider recognition, the sattras continue to use the dance form for ritualistic and "other purposes for which it was originally created circa 500 years ago en."wikipedia.org/Sattriya_dance
