MOHINIYATTAM


Dancing style :As we have already read the dancing style is unique , and enchanting. Characteristic body movements , marked by the graceful sway of the torso ..and the rise and fall of the body with emphasis on the torso...gives one the feel of the swaying coconut trees of Kerala.The glances, postures ,and gait employed are so subtle and graceful that they convey the infinite suggestiveness of radiant love.It portrays feminine love in myriad forms :carnal,devotional and maternal with accent more on lasya and bhava.
