Internal Workshops

Between November 2003 and January 2004, the VIDYA Management conducted a workshop for some members of the Performance Company on Project Presentation. This included a period of field-work during which participants had to present VIDYA to 5 NGOs in Ahmedabad. The purpose was to equip the performers with theoretical knowledge and skills, as well as practical experience in preparing presentations, speaking in public about our work and networking with other organizations on behalf of VIDYA.
In February 2004, John Martin, Artistic Director, Pan Centre for Intercultural Arts, UK conducted a 4-day workshop with the Peer Group on making and using masks in performance.
In January 2005, Mr. Parry Singh, Computer Specialist conducted a training session in basic computer application skills for our Office Assistant and 2 Performers.
In February 2005, Mr. Shailya Shah, Yoga Expert conducted a 10-day workshop with the entire VIDYA team. This intensive training in Yoga and Meditation proved to be very useful in breaking the routine of regular work (that can sometimes get monotonous), increasing levels of concentration and exercising their bodies, minds and souls.
