Thodayam Videos Home Contact Us Part 1 Part3
Thodayam was developed as an introduction and acts as the beginning of the kathakali performance. The Vaythari(rote or mental repetition) of Thodayam is given here in 5 parts. While doing Thodayam one has to repeat the Vaythari in the mind as you take the steps. All the thalas of Kathakali are available in Thodayam, except some like real Adantha which is too slow to incorporate into Thodayam.
