Sitting on our hotel rooftop at night Octopussy playing on a neighbouring rooftop competed for my attention with a dance troupe in the Bagore-Ki-Haveli courtyard four stories below.  

Next night we went to check it out.

Terah Taali Dancer

One of the more spiritual dances, performed in honour of their folk hero saint Ramdoji.  Seated on the floor the dancers hold a pair of cymbals in each hand, they swing their arms and sway whilst striking 13 cymbals tied to their bodies with the ones they hold in their hands.  Our dancer has Seven on her left leg between knee and ankle, one on her instep and another on her big toe as well as one on each arm.

Bhavai Dancer twirls then sways with up to 9 pots on her head whilst balancing on a glass.
