Special aspects of Manipuri dance :The dancers do not wear ankle bells to accentuate the beats tapped out by the feet , in contrast with other Indian dance forms , and the dancer's feet never strike the ground hard. Movements of the body and feet , and the facial expressions in Manipuri dance are subtle and aim at devotion and grace. The Manipuri dancers dazzle the audience with their colourful costumes, gossamer veils , mirrored skirts and ornaments which create a dream like effect.Intensely devotional in mood Manipuri dances are a part of daly life for the natives.
