    Indian Classical Dance Is a Relatively New Umbrella Term for Various Codified Art Forms Rooted in Natya, the Sacred Hindu Musica

    CLASSICAL AND FOLK DANCES IN INDIAN CULTURE Palkalai Chemmal Dr ANANDA BALAYOGI BHAVANANI Chairman: Yoganjali Natyalayam, Pondicherry. INTRODUCTION: Dance in India comprises the varied styles of dances and as with other aspects of Indian culture, different forms of dances originated in different parts of India, developed according to the local traditions and also imbibed elements from other parts of the country. These dance forms emerged from Indian traditions, epics and mythology. Sangeet Natak Akademi, the national academy for performing arts, recognizes eight distinctive traditional dances as Indian classical dances, which might have origin in religious activities of distant past. These are: Bharatanatyam- Tamil Nadu Kathak- Uttar Pradesh Kathakali- Kerala Kuchipudi- Andhra Pradesh Manipuri-Manipur Mohiniyattam-Kerala Odissi-Odisha Sattriya-Assam Folk dances are numerous in number and style, and vary according to the local tradition of the respective state, ethnic or geographic regions. Contemporary dances include refined and experimental fusions of classical, folk and Western forms. Dancing traditions of India have influence not only over the dances in the whole of South Asia, but on the dancing forms of South East Asia as well. In modern times, the presentation of Indian dance styles in films (Bollywood dancing) has exposed the range of dance in India to a global audience. In ancient India, dance was usually a functional activity dedicated to worship, entertainment or leisure. Dancers usually performed in temples, on festive occasions and seasonal harvests. Dance was performed on a regular basis before deities as a form of worship. Even in modern India, deities are invoked through religious folk dance forms from ancient times.

    Giddha Folk Dance: an Embodiment of Healing Through Creative Artistic Punjabi Dance Culture and Connection with Somatic Dance Therapy & Practice

    GIDDHA FOLK DANCE: AN EMBODIMENT OF HEALING THROUGH CREATIVE ARTISTIC PUNJABI DANCE CULTURE AND CONNECTION WITH SOMATIC DANCE THERAPY & PRACTICE Giddha is a form of folk dance from the land of five rivers called Punjab in North- Western part of India. So many rivers in one place signifying fertility and precious land for cultivation and farming. Punjabi culture is filled with vibrancy and fun loving loud people. They believe in expressing themselves with full power and intensity. Punjabi dances are based around energy and happiness. This form has freedom, expression, dramatic voice, facial and body dialoguing. It is a kinaesthetic, preoperceptive and muscular activity with elements of clapping and voicing emotions. It is an act of body, mind and emotions. Clapping helps to release toxins and also can be related to acupressure, as this triggers the points that effect major inner body organs. This form of movement exploration is therapeutic and has the ability to heal from a holistic perspective. Healing here is not when one goes into hospital and finds external source of therapy but from this perspective it simply means uniting the wholeness of being. This supports body, mind and spirit energy, bringing many people together to perform in a sacred circle; thus helping socialising to become artistic and motivational. It allows women of small knit family structures, villages and controlled environment societies to voice their inner feelings and releasing painful toxins through singing, dancing and bodily expression. It gives time to people to release everything in a joking fun loving manner and especially in a non- judgmental circle.

INTRODUCTION Bihu dance and songs are folk media forms of Assam. Folk media forms of Bihu are vibrant among people of Assam. However Bihu as represented by Assamese cinema creates popular culture forms which are distinctly deviates from folk forms.Assamese cinema has a glorious history since the first ever film Joymoti by Jyotiprasad Agarwala in 1935. Cinema forms the popular culture. At the same time cinema itself is popular culture. In the twentieth and in the twenty first century cinema is the most powerful mass media which can overcome all barriers of boundaries and forms a universal platform for human race. Cinema is inseparable from the living process of modern human society. The voice of a society is represented by cinema. The people, life and living process, thoughts and beliefs, cultural ethos are represented by cinema. Cinema can carry the culture of the society where the cinema is made. The story, theme, characters, settings, costumes, music, dance etc. of a cinema showcase the cultural forms of the representative society. Assamese cinema therefore represents the cultural forms of Assamese society in the broad sense. “Although the word culture is part of everyday vocabulary, it’s difficult to define.

The object was to learn to what extent the effort to think one’s own history can free thought from what it silently thinks, so enable it to think differently. Michel Foucault. 1985/1990. The Use of Pleasure: The History of Sexuality Vol. II, trans. Robert Hurley. New York: Vintage: 9. … in order to problematise our inherited categories and perspectives on gender meanings, might not men’s experiences of gender – in relation to themselves, their bodies, to socially constructed representations, and to others (men and women) – be a potentially subversive way to begin? […]. Of course the risks are very high, namely, of being misunderstood both by the common sense of the dominant order and by a politically correct feminism. But, then, welcome to the margins! Mary E.
