After dancing this piece almost twice a night during the Natyanjalis, it began to change with each performance. I found revelatory moments that could happen only with repetition and the ability to surrender. This is a video that we decided to take before leaving Kumbakonam after the 12 performances for Shivaratri. I’ll post another bit of it in the coming weeks.

The camera has to dance while I dance … 😊 Just like I have to work with musicians on stage… have a conversation of sorts… the same happens here. (Also, we usually shoot landscape - so reels in the vertical format are very limiting both for me as well as for Vivian) Hope you like the last one in this series of “joy on the pier” in #martinique #danc

We created 80 mins of performance material over the course of just 4 days. Some small rhythm sections are adapted from other pieces with similar rhythm cycles, but most of the performance has been devised and choreographed in this short span of time. People often wonder how one memorises so much material. I think that for me, I always remember the numbers in the rhythm first. Once that is done, I trust my body to move in the rhythm and remember the movement. I don’t actually think of the movemen
