Legends and Luminaries on Her dance
Rarely in the recent past have I come across a youngster of such talent. The clean lines of the dance etched by her limbs (angasuddha) was matched by her undoubted talent and commitment, which shone through. Incidentally, Sulakshana means "One with beautifully defined features". When this is matched by the finesse of her dance, it is truly an elevating experience. - M.Varadharajan IAS, Former Secy. of Culture, Govt of India "I have had the pleasure of watching Kumari Sulakshana jayaram perform and bloom into a very fine dancer. She is extremely talented with a deep sense of commitment, excellent laya and grace, poise and a very charming stage presence. Her skills are beautifully honed and her command over the dance form is noteworthy ... She is so beautiful. So meticulous, so much peace in her dance". - Smt.Alarmel Valli , Bharatanatyam Exponent

Her traditional nritta and bhava, both were simply mesmerizing... She has a very charming stage presence. Journal of Vedic Heritage (New York), Jan-Feb 2004 Vol VII Young Sulakshana jayaram gave a beautiful recital... Her movements are significantly very graceful. She strikes aesthetic poses with poise and utmost ease. The footwork in the Varnam was sharply etched and executed with the tingle of the salangai chiming with perfect resonsance to the rhythm... she portrayed a plethora of emotions in the padam 'mathura nagarilo' which were a delight to watch. The New Indian express, 2004 "She steps to conquer" ... The quest for flawless execution. That is what drives Sulakshana Jayaram. The audience was engrossed in watching the graceful danseuse performing Krishna nee begane baaro, a composition of saint poet Kannadasa. As she moved to the front of the stage with deft suppleness of her wrists in Padavarnam Sulakshana had cast a fishing net...The beauty of dance is that it has the power to have and hold an audience's interest. Thats what Sulakshana Jayaram did. With a challenging glint in her eyes and with refined movements of hands and feet she elegantly portrayed everyone of the items she chose for the evening. The Indian express , 1998 "Scintillating bharatnatyam recital ... young Sulakshana was a picture of perfection and composure. Her dance was marked by impeccable precision in footwork, graceful body language and empathy in Abhinaya. The varnam in Navaraagamalika was the main item and stood out as a connoisseurs's delight" The Indian express, 1998
