Ravi,
Interesting. What is it though about their muscles becoming stiff after the age of eighteen?

These kids are amazingly gymnastic according to reports...I guess they become too muscle-bound that affects their flexibility..

Kuchipudi also has the origin of male brahmin dancers but is mostly yakshaganas or dance ballets...
