Bollywood at Still & Moving Center
Bollywood dance is a fun, high-energy performance style that has gained popularity thanks to the global appeal of the Hindi film industry, out of India. Like many international styles, Bollywood is a modern blend of both traditional Indian folk dance and Western moves. Combining unique head, neck, and body movements, with specific footwork and mudras (hand positions), this style is colorful, and so much fun to learn.
In many Hindi films, dance is used as part of the storytelling experience, with large groups of dancers, vibrant costumes, and beautiful locations. The music is energetic, with elements of hip hop, jazz, Arabic, Bhangra, and several types of traditional Indian beats. Bollywood dance appeals to a large amount of people, thanks to its playfulness and catchy tunes. Learning Bollywood dance styles can be a great way to not only learn about the Indian and Hindi culture, but also get a good workout too. Like other forms of high-energy dance, Bollywood can boost your circulation, improve your mood, and give you some great cardiovascular exercise. Our virtual and in person Bollywood dance classes may also help your coordination, flexibility, and sense of rhythm!
