…About Bollywood Dance
Welcome to Bollywood dance!
Bollywood dance! Music, dance, and the big screen come together in Bollywood, where many elements find their way into the bounding, bouncing, slithering, endless range of possibilities in this dance that is so many dances rolled into one. When you join the world of bollywood, you get to act as well as dance. Bollywood has mime, classical and folk dance elements, hip hop and infinite color and dazzle. It can be as simple or as intricate as you like. It brings sparkle and joy to aerobics and a vast repertoire of songs and themes to draw on for performance.
And BollywoodIowa has both! Join our Level I weekly class for exercise and easy follow-along moves to the most popular songs (as well as some beautiful fusion Indian music) and/or join our Level II class which focuses on whole dances we learn in 2–3 sessions. Performance opportunities come along often.
There's a charm, warmth and amazing energy that comes from this music and dance. It's impossible not to feel happy once you start moving and it's impossible to watch and listen without wanting to move!
"I live for these Bollywood classes! They make me forget my mind and get into my body so fully! What a lot of fun. Wendy is fabulous to watch and so full of contagious energy and bliss. The music is exciting and heartful and impossible not to dance to. The class is just the right combination of new and repeated moves, so we progress yet always get into a groove of moving that lets us let go."
"I started Wendy's Bollywood classes unable to put my right foot in front of my left, and a year later I am performing on stage. This is the greatest testiment to Wendy's abilty to teach anyone!"—RS
