Incredible Dances of South Asia
- Genre South Asian - DANCE
- Bio Smitha Vijayan, a Mohiniyattam performer from Kerala, India founded the Mohini Dance School in Redmond, WA in 2013. This dance form is characterized by gentle footwork and graceful swaying movements symbolic of the paddy fields of Kerala swaying in the gentle breeze. This year alone, Smitha and her students have performed at 5 different venues. We look forward to performing at the Northwest Folklife Festival in 2015 and continue to increase awareness about this classical dance form of India.
