1m 9s
The Mandi Adavu gets it's name from the movement that involves the knee being placed on the ground alternately.
It is very important to do the exercises that strengthen the legs substantially and do all the exercises for Araimandi for a long period of time before embarking on this Adavu.
Bouncing on the heels will lead to injury, so keep in mind to stay lifted and held even if it causes muscular fatigue in the legs.
Only the first speed is introduced at this time, please practice carefully and with attention.
Things to keep in mind:
- Do not lean forward
- Push your thighs back
- Keep lifted
- Hold your Natyarambham strong
