Small sticks are used in Keralan Kolkali dance performances, along with a multitude of other varieties. The southern state’s Malabar region is home to several popular group dancing styles. Kolattam is the name of the Kolkali dance performed by ladies. The roots of the Kolkali dance can be found in the “ancient days when Kalarippayattu, a martial art of Kerala, was in vogue,” according to a blog entry on the Kerala Tourism website.
