Mohiniattam 4 - The Adavus Or Steps Of Mohiniattam Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon
Mohiniattam 4 - The Adavus Or Steps Of Mohiniattam
An Adavu is a step,
An Adavu is a movement,
An Adavu is a rhythmic beat,
An Adavu is a dancing step, a dance movement with rhythm,
An Adavu is a step with a definite posture holding a Mudra,
An Adavu is a perfectly planned, rhythmic, dance movement.
Mohiniattam Adavus are incredible dance movements
That need long period of training and practice of Adavus,
To move the body into undulating flow of movements,
To propel the torso into circular, swinging movements,
To ease the body with gentle gaits, swaying movements,
To perform withsubtle grace of elegantmovements.
Mohiniattam Adavus and Mudras,
Magnificent dance style of beauty and radiance!
Rightly said Ma'am, long hours of practice & dedication is the only thing that can help you perfect these beautiful set of graceful steps..
Devotion! ! ! Steps of love and life! Facing the works of the truth; Uplifting righteous morals. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
The dance The perfect dancer with the inside heart Can awake the true self Can call the nature, the earth, the hanging sky Can call thousand lightened veilings of God Can shake the throne of God Can meet with God
