Lalitha Sindhuri, a research Scholar in Department of Dance in the SN School of Arts & Communication at the University of Hyderabad (UoH) has been selected for the prestigious Fulbright-Doctoral Nehru Fellowship for the year 2017-18.
She will be visiting the Barnard College (Affiliated to the Columbia University) between September 5th 2017 to June 5th 2018 and will be working under Dr. Uttara Asha Coorlawala. As a Fulbright-Nehru Fellow, Lalitha Sindhuri is working to understand the Western (especially American) pedagogical approach and theoretical framework in cross-cultural training in dance.
Along with carefully observing the technique of Modern Dance in conditioning the body, she is also studying several movement sciences like body mechanics, applied anatomy for human movement to understand the dancing body.
Her primary objective is to understand how the Contemporary Dance made changes to its Pedagogy in order to optimise the life of a dancer and how this concept can be related to the contemporary scenario of Indian dance with a special reference to Kuchipudi dance.
