Every temple has festivals and dances all around the year.This dance is one such that is performed  in temples during Amman festivals or Navaratri festival. The dance is in praise of all female deities, the most preferred being the powerful angry goddess - Kali or Durga



The dancers wear ankle-bells and hold anklets or silambu in their hands, which create sound when shaken. Their gracious leg positions are the major attraction.They perform various stepping styles jumps.
