Sattriya, or Sattriya Nritya, at Majuli island, Assam

Sattriya, a 500-year-old dance from the Vaishnavite monasteries of Northeast India. Sattriya is a living art form, preserved and practiced by celibate monks in the river island of Majuli. The dance was not accessible to women for centuries. #sattriya #sattriyadancer #sattriyadancecompany #assamtourism #assambengalnavigation #dancersofinstagram #dance #dancer #danganronpa #music #musician #musicvideo #musicislife #musicproducer #northeastindia #incredibleindia #instagram #instadaily #instagood #culture #photooftheday #photography #photographer #picoftheday #travel #travelphotography #travelgram #traveltheworld #traveler #luxurytravel (at Majuli, Assam, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCZD_5xn-6Z/?igshid=6hwb74x73t5z

Sattriya is devoid of the sensuality that other classical dances channel - the dancer’s love for Krishna is pure, like the love for a child. #assam #indianclassicaldance . . . #dancer #dancedoll #studioyali #sattriya #assam #assamese #krishna #vaishnava #sundari #classicaldance #dollstagram #indiandolls #kokeshi #etsydoll #etsy #handmadewithlove
