Launched in 2006, the DIPLOMA IN MOVEMENT ARTS AND MIXED MEDIA is the only programme in India that offers a full-time professional training in Contemporary Dance and allied disciplines. Currently offered as a one-year intensive, graduates may choose to continue to train and earn for a further period of two years with Attakkalari. 2. An interdisciplinary choreography lab FACETS was held in 2002, 2004 and 2006. Over the duration of the three-week residential laboratory, dancers and choreographers work with different contemporary movement techniques and Indian physical traditions and utilize existing and emerging technologies as creative tools for artistic expression. 3. Attakkalari set up the Education Outreach Programme (EOP) over six years ago to integrate the movement arts into the mainstream curriculum in schools to facilitate the holistic development of the child. Offering dance education on an unprecedented scale, Attakkalari facilitators have taught in approximately 60 schools across the economic divide and reached over 6000 children. Attakkalari conducts community dance classes every evening and also on weekends, as well as, workshops and classes for corporates and others. 4. Over the years, Attakkalari has undertaken in-depth research into the teaching methodologies in Indian performing arts traditions. The knowledge of these independent projects led to a major research project, NAGARIKA an Integrated Information System on Indian Physical Expressions through Technology. The project compiles and categorizes movement sequences of two specific Indian movement traditions –Bharatanatyam and Kalarippayattu. The interactive DVD on Bharatanatyam is ready. 5. Attakkalari’s Repertory Company has given young boys and girls, many of who are from underprivileged sections of society, a chance to earn a sustainable livelihood while pursuing their passion in the arts. Attakkalari’s productions are at the forefront of the contemporary Indian dance scene and incorporate cutting-edge digital arts, imaginative lighting and innovative music. In the last three years productions include CHRONOTOPIA, CITY ON THE MOVE, NAGARANTHARA and PURUSHARTHA. Attakkalari has performed across India, at several major European festivals, UK, Japan and is scheduled to perform in Korea also. 6. TransMedia Technologies aims to provide much needed training for designers, technicians, choreographers, dancers and actors in stage technologies. Since its inception in Bangalore, this division of Attakkalari has earned a name for itself for providing quality, cost effective services in light and sound solutions for performance groups. 8. Attakkalari India Biennial celebrates the combined visions of artists in dance, sound, digital arts and design from all over India and abroad. The recently concluded festival held from February 6th -15th brought together 300 artistes from more than 20 countries in a series of performances and related events.
