Ticket to Bollywood
Having fun when East meets West on the dance floor! Ticket to Bollywood will give participants of ALL AGES a chance to try this exciting fusion of Indian and Western dance styles and enjoy a creative mixture of
technique, energy, and emotion. Classes will mainly focus on poses, hand movements and expression –
plus it’s a great way to stay fit! Inspired by the Bollywood (India’s Hollywood) film industry and made famous by western movies like The Guru and Monsoon Wedding. Bollywood movies have inspired music as well as dance: the Black Eyed Peas, Jay-Z, and Britney Spears to name a few.


Classes will begin on the evening of June 8th and will last 6 weeks, followed by a small performance at the final class. Specific times TBD by the number and ages of participants.
