AB - This study investigates the integration of the Indian Navarasa tradition and the American Viewpoints methodology in a “glocal” (global learning in local) classroom context, facilitated through University of Southern California’s iPodia model of ‘classrooms without borders.’ Conducted through two synchronous workshops in the fall 2023, linking the University of Southern California’s Actor’s Instrument (Movement) class and Whistling Woods International Film Academy in Mumbai, India, the project examined how digital platforms and intercultural acting methodology exchanges can reshape and enhance actor training. Student reflections and workshop evaluations indicated that combining diverse cultural methodologies enhanced their engagement, broadened their artistic perspectives, and strengthened their embodied performance practices. The study further highlights the pedagogical significance of technology in global performance education, while identifying logistical and technical challenges for scalability and accessibility.
