Event Description : DANCE LAB "Abhyas Somatics Lab" Glimpses of practice-in-progress by Navtej Johar

As one scans and maps the body in a detailed manner - by attending to the physical structure of the skeleton, the size, shape and weight of the bones, the contours and range of the joints, the elasticity of the ligaments, the strength, tautness and slackness of the muscles, the nature of bodily substances, fluids and the airs that pervade the body - what begins to emerge is an experience of transgressing the very limits of the body. Proposing this idea as one of its major findings the Abhyas Somatics group brings forth glimpses from their practice at the six-month training program in Abhyas Somatics, devised by Navtej Johar.

The lab features the following:

 Listening Watching Moving: Somatic Practice by the students to be run in loops

 Films by Marcel Zaes, Kalpana Subramanian, and Meghna Bhardwaj

 Now: Drawings by Simrat Dugal

 Wall of Keywords: Developing the discourse at Studio Abhyas

 Somatics Audio Booth conceptualised and designed by Navtej Johar
