The last decades have brought exciting innovations to the world of Indian dance as dancers trained in classical dance enrich and combine their training with contemporary movement. Sometimes spiritual, sometimes Bollywood-like, contemporary Indian dance is an eclectic, catchy, and deeply rooted fusion dance form. In this class, we experience contemporary approaches to Indian dance. This class will draw on Indian classical, folk, Bollywood, and contemporary movement to create short dance sequences. All are welcome!
