Astha vativu

Meer over het boek

The individual animal forms (vativus) are elephant, lion, cat, horse, wild boar, snake, cock, and fish. They are embedded in adavus, contiguous, flowing movements consisting of foot / footwork, arm / handwork and other bodywork. The adavus are largely similar from school to school, but they can also differ greatly. The postures of the Kalarippayatt are thus not static forms, but flowing processes with forms as stations. With the professional support of Radhika Gurukkal und Dr. Lal Krishnan.
