This is the third dance I performed at my Salangai Puja.

Alarippu is a technical, geometrical item.

  • Which style are you practising? I cannot recognize it.

    I am doing kalakshetra style:)

  • My teacher's main teacher was Sri Udupi Laxminarayan from Chennai.

    My teacher is Barbara Dejung in Switzerland.

  • Yes of course, but I was a bit unstable. I am working on it...

  • Poor aramandi.... you have to work alot and lot on your aramandi.... bharathanatyam performers dont' stand straight like that and perform only kathak or kathakali dancers would. i'm not from india, but from sri lanka... even in my country we were taught aramadi and hand positionings before we were allowed to perform onstage. my teacher would come from behind and slap on our elbows if our hands drop down while practicing. i would say u have to practice lot more

  • practice, practice, practice! Mine used to hurt so much but try keeping them up for a certain amount of time, then the next time you practice extend that time a little. Steady steps go a long way! :)

  • Advice for keeping your hands up for longer without screaming from pain!

  • Does Alarippu always have the same choreography or it depends on the guru?

  • who's the idiot in charge of the lighting.

    u can't fully see the amazing dance in the glare.

  • Good luck! I'm a beginner, I learned Alarippu only a few months ago. Also, you're tall and I know taller girls always have to try to have a deeper Aramandi than shorter girls. 3rd speed takes so much practice to perfect, but you'll do it :)
