Lasya
The term lasya, in the context of Hindu mythology, describes a highly sensuous and languorous dance, which the goddess Parvati performed as a counterpart but in a completely different style. It was as a reaction to the cosmic dance of Tandava performed by Shiva, and was performed concurrently while tandava was in progression.
