Bollywood/Bhangra
Learn to dance to popular Indian film songs! In this class we will be combining traditional Bhangra steps with the more modern Bollywood style. This is a high-energy, exciting and joyful dance, coordinating footwork along with upper body, shoulder, arm and hand movements. A group dance will be choreographed and is for both male and female dancers, preferably co-ed.
Bhangra is a traditional folk dance of celebration, joy and thanksgiving. It is traditionally associated with the harvest in Punjab, the northern state of India and Pakistan. The dance is accompanied by the lively beat of the dhol (two sided drum played with two sticks) with lyrics ranging anywhere from patriotism to the emotional words of love ballads.
