Kuthu
Kuthu, also known as Gaana or Tamil Kuthu, is a high-energy South Indian street dance style that originates from Tamil Nadu. Traditionally performed at festivals, celebrations, and in Tamil cinema, Kuthu is known for its raw power, infectious rhythm, and unfiltered expression. The style blends grounded footwork, strong shoulder and hip movements, and explosive gestures that channel both joy and rebellion. What makes Kuthu unique is its unpredictable, improvisational nature, it thrives on rhythm breaks, expression, and crowd interaction.
Alongside its powerful drum beats and folk-inspired music, it creates an atmosphere of community. More than just a dance, Kuthu is an outlet of cultural pride and celebration, bringing people together to share energy and emotion.
