Hasta Jam is a quick 1 minute challenge , designed to inspire younger practitioners of Bharatanatyam to go beyond the prescription of their texts to find new and innovative ways of communication using stylized hand gestures. Players are not only encouraged to explore ideas drawn from everyday life but also are challenged to communicate this to their non dancer friend. Hasta Jam thus allows young uninitiated audiences to get a glimpse of the Bharatanatyam while debunking that widely held pre-conception that “I won’t understand“.
