A group of people, mostly women and girls, stand in a room with their hands on their hips, looking forward. They wear colorful traditional clothing, including dresses and salwar kameez in shades of pink, maroon, yellow, and white. Behind them, a woman in a yellow outfit stands near a window with stained glass panels, while another woman in black stands near a whiteboard. A young girl in a grey dress stands near the center. The room has tiled floors, ceiling fans, and a large blue wall mural with abstract shapes and a painted face. A television on a stand and wall-mounted speakers are visible against the back wall.

Building rhythm and co-ordination through revision

Facilitated by Aparna NS

What the work needed: people, time, money, space and materials.
What went in
Revision session on Adavus and Mudras.
Time
2 hours

What was done with those inputs, step by step.

On Sunday, most students were absent, so I used the class to revise Adavus and Mudras and introduced basic Chollu and Thalam. This helped me realise the importance of changing my lessons to fit the students' needs and giving them enough time to develop rhythm and co-ordination. I learned that even a small class can be a valuable opportunity to observe and support each student.

What changed for the people who took part, and what showed it.

Students strengthened their understanding of previously learned Adavus and Mudras.

(We observed it)

What the team will keep or change next time.

Smaller classes provide valuable opportunities for individual observation, feedback, and support.
