We have been a bit underground and overwhelmed but super excited because we have been chosen to perform at Abhivyakti City Art Edition 8 in Ahmedabad this year ( Dates of our performance will be announced soon ! )

“Unearthed” - The story of Dholavira is our way of bringing Heritage, History and Storytelling on a platform for all to engage and experience the Indus valley civilisation and what it must have been like 4500 years back.

Joining us on board is my partner in Odissi and Storytelling @siddhi_odissipractitioner

No production is a solo effort and we have on board so many people to help and guide us

Thank you @abhivyakti_city_art @iamkrutimahesh for encouraging a new idea and @goag7 to have faith in my idea and execution!

Super nervous and excited!
None of this is possible without blessings of my guru @dakshacheerful

Meet the Teacher:

Aric Master
Aric Master is a dance movement researcher, educator and choreographer based in Mumbai, India. His expertise lies in movement practices such as Flying Low, Passing Through, Martial Arts, Contact Improvisation, Modern Contemporary Dance, Jazz and Ballet with an experience of 15 years. He is also a former member at TL Inc (Terence Lewis Inc) and the founding member & one of the Organisers of PDF (Partner Dance Festival India).
His current project involves assisting in choreographing for Reality Show Indias Best Dancer and an upcoming Webseries in India. He is also co-curating Omniverse.art which focuses on bringing AI and Art together.
As a movement practitioner he has trained with a number of masters like:
David Zambrano,Terence Lewis, Peter Jasko, Joe Alagado, Laura Aris, German Jauregui , Corinne Lanselle, Marta Coronado, Kathleen Hermsdrof, Vega Luukkonen, Hugh Stanier, Katja Mustonen and many more.
After having trained in Contemporary under various renowned teachers around the world, he has developed a new approach called EXFLOOR (Explore The Floor) in which the aim is for a dancer to find the connection of the whole body with the floor; going through the roots and channelising the whole energy to interact with the floor in different levels. The fundamental area of Exfloor plays with the idea of a relationship of the body with the Moving Floor a 3 dimensional space full of spirals and constant momentum using tools from different techniques like Flying Low, Physical Momentum, Centrifugal Empowerment and Connection of Breath and Sound with Movement.
