"Serikal", means to slide. This series of Adavus include a variety of sliding movements in the Adavu series of The Raadha Kalpa Method. The first variety is introduced in this series.

Please make sure to practice the Araimandi tips before embarking on this Adavu. Also practice the legs and core frequently to gain control and precision in the practise of this adavu.

- be certain to straighten the back knee in all speeds
- do not bounce on your heels to stretch out. Try to hold above the collapsing point in your muzhumandi.
