I refuse to make any fruity jokes, there’s a time and a place..

You’ll understand what I mean after you’ve watched this beautiful clip of Alexandre performing a Kavadi bearing in Brazil.

Since I posted the 47-spear prone kavadi, I’d like to also share Dust’s first kavadi, a seated kavadi, by Chandler and Flo at Villa Vendex in Maastricht.

Thank you so much to Helasdottir for sharing this beautiful horizontal kavadi variation. The forty-seven steel spears have autoclavable screw on tips, and you can click here to see the rigging. She described the experience as both serene and intense — which I think is about ideal.
