The Diploma will prepare technically sound and strong performers adept in varied movement approaches. Drawing upon the conceptual tools of philosophy, aesthetics and art history in an intellectually stimulating and supportive environment, the programme encourages students to evolve into creative, aware and thinking practitioners of the art of dance and dance-making. Attakkalari's pioneering research over the past years into Indian physical traditions and the wealth of knowledge from its large pool of international artists will be enormously beneficial to the course. While a stipulated minimum of technical prowess is ensured, students will be encouraged to design their own study program. Besides the three-year full-fledged Diploma program, students also have the option of a one-year Certificate Course (the Foundation Year), or short-term intensive modules on light design, digital arts and arts management. Reputed teachers of Indian physical traditions, contemporary dance, ballet and other movement techniques, Choreographers and leading practitioners in the fields of Digital & Sonic arts, Light & Set Design, Art History and Critical theory comprise the regular and visiting faculty.
