On Sunday, February 16, our team and guest instructor Pooja Raval came together to instruct a sweet Valentine’s Indian Dance Workshop with the goal of promoting Classical Indian (Bharatnatyam) Fusion, Bollywood, and Garba among our fitness participants all while having fun burning off calories from those Valentine’s dinners! Like our Fall workshop, I think we did just that!
During the 3-hour workshop, participants learned easy to follow movements, styling techniques including eye and hand expressions, and that exercise can be fun in a female-only setting. The workshop encouraged past participants to improve on their basic steps and technique with new choreography and to become familiar with the rhythms. We ended the evening with our very first Garba workshop filled with fast and energetic rhythms and movements, pair practice, and lots of sweat!
While this is our last 3-hour workshop, we look forward to putting on dance workshops each session that will focus on one dance/art form.
