ABOUT ISABS | |
| Founded in 1972, Indian Society for Applied Behavioural Science (ISABS) is a national, voluntary professional body of behavioural scientists engaged in applying their knowledge and skill to the well being of persons, organisations & communities. Its members work as independent consultants, trainers, counsellors, academicians, human resource development managers and community change agents. ISABS programmes focus on helping people to understand human processes better, and discover more creative and satisfying ways of relating and working. ISABS utilizes group and experience-based learning as its main learning methodology. Experiencing, reflecting, hypothesizing, conceptualising and experimenting, rather than lectures are the chief ingredients in this process of learning. ISABS also develops professionals capable of facilitating such experience-based learning in organisational and societal contexts. |
| |
Human Process Laboratories | |
| In a human process laboratory, a group of around 10-12 participants work together along with facilitator[s] to learn about human processes and discover more about themselves, their strengths & styles; interpersonal and group interactions; how they perceive others and are perceived by others. While this is the primary task, there is no pre-determined agenda and the group uses the ’here and now’ experience to derive this learning, using one another as resources. The facilitator helps to create a climate for such learning. The language of conversation in a lab depends on the comfort and comprehension of the group members and it is likely that more than one language may be utilized during the lab. |

CREATIVE MOVEMENT THERAPY
Introductory Training program in Delhi
Facilitator: Tripura Kashyap
Dance therapy involves the use of natural body movements to attain therapeutic goals. Dance therapists encourage participants to evolve a personal movement language to achieve holistic growth and healthier functioning. This therapy helps to increase the emotional-physical unity in individuals affecting positive changes in feelings, cognition, behaviour and physical functioning. Participants also gain a better understanding of their movement potential, conflicts and needs.
Taking part in individual, group, and partnership activities, participants enhance their range of motion, creativity, problem solving skills and team building capacities. While befriending their bodies through movement and interacting with others, participants learn to reinforce social skills more effectively.
This participatory program consists of three broad segments. Theory includes historical evolution, techniques, principles and objectives of dance therapy. The practical segment consists of body awareness practices, warm ups, relaxation routines, creative movement activities and games in combination with techniques from Indian and Western dance theatre. The third segment consists of evaluation and assessment in which participants learn to analyze movement patterns and behaviour.
After reviewing the introductory workshop, participants will be further guided through the theory and practice of dance therapy. Therapeutic elements from Indian dance forms, kinds of groups encountered, philosophy/methods of pioneer dance therapists, body/self image, providing variety of movement experiences in sessions, and assessing group movement behaviour will be discussed. Case studies will also be examined to reinforce the idea of therapeutic dance. Alongside learning fresh movement games and activities, participants will develop facilitation skills to conduct movement activities.
In clusters, they will be given assignments to create their own movement activities under concepts like strength building, physical contact, or setting personal boundaries etc.
Who can attend
The program is open to special educators, school teachers, dancers, actors, visual artists, team leaders, social workers and therapists working with NGO's and other heterogeneous groups. The workshop will help participants use movement in sessions with children or adults they work with.
