Amerta Movement: Spontanity Connecting Awareness by Cyntia Ingrid

The movements of Joged Amerta are always intended as a way of greeting others; therefore, movement serves as embodied communication or dialogue. One of the fundamental conditions of dialogue is the recognition and acceptance of the existence of other subjects. In other words, communication can only take place when subjects engage as equals—subject to subject, rather than subject to object.

Amerta Movement creates an impact on the way bodies perceive their spaces, their history, their “natureculture” environment and relationships with other bodies.
