Aseema Kala Yatra:
This workshop was conceptualised to create an awareness of Choreography in the Indian context and to popularise Dance as a Career option for today’s youth, featuring a format of interactive workshopping and performances by our performing unit.
Set in rural areas and satellite cities, a core team of 6 dancers and a technician travels to an area where we conduct a practical and theory workshop about the origins of choreography, the Natya Shaastra/ Abhinaya Darpanam, art and craft of creating movement, mime and more.
Post lunch, the participants move to the auditorium where they learn about lighting and stage design.
In the evening the core team performs a Dance and multimedia work called – Indian Dance – “From Tradition to Modernity” which showcases the classical, martial, folk and contemporary dance idioms of our country.
This series was created in 2006 and has toured many districts of India already.
