Put on your dancing shoes,it's wedding time
Indians weddings are well known for songs and dancing rituals.It is an intrinsic part of every wedding celebration in all communities and is full of joy and verve. For Christians, the pre-wedding ceremonies have a lot of folk dancing to traditional music and songs. Gracy Fernandes exclaims "Dancing is the epitome of our wedding celebrations."On the wedding day the reception begins with the 'Grand March'.It has a quick tempo that sets the mood and gets everyone ready to swing and shake a leg.In this form, the couple and the guest around in pairs.This is followed by the wedding couples first Waltz together and they are then joined by family and friends.Ballroom dancing continues througout the evening and winds up with lively free style folk dancing. Framroz Ghaswala, a Parsi from Mumbai informs. "Today,even Parsis are dancing at their wedding receptions.There was no dancing in the past, but it's a recent trend and is catching up very fast."
Indian folk dancing have dominated Christian,Hindu,Muslim,Sikh and other religions.Functions like haldi, mehendi,sangeet,baraat and of course the main wedding celebrations.There is a lot of raas-garba in gujarat and bhangra in punjab. Elijash Gadkar says,"In Jewish weddings, we dance to English,Hindi and Hebrew songs." Indian weddings now have foot stomping Bollywood dancing.Film director Carlos D'silva explains,"We are Bollywood centric country and it has become part of our ethos. Bollywood dancing is popular because it is not formal and does not involve any rigid rules.Even little children can join in. It is not complicated and you do not need any training like ballroom dancing.In fact,many western countries now incorporate Bollywood dancing at their wedding receptions as a novelty."
The big fat Indian wedding is getting bigger and dance sequences today are choreographed by professionals.Many Indian couples now prefer a white wedding reception and ballroom dancing has swayed its way into the Indian wedding scenario.Dancer and choreographer Sandip Saporrkar informs,"Families today want to make the event a grand and memorable affair.The maximum preparation is for the sangeet or the wedding day dance.Couples-to-be,their families and friends want to study the authentic styles of dancing and perfect their moves.The most popular dance for the newly-weds is the Waltz and Rumba,and now even Tango i catching up.For the family,there is Cha Cha Cha,Samba,Jive and more.Some prefer ballroom dancing to bollywood music and some like to keep it traditional."
The cherry on the cake is very sensuous and interesting trend.Belly dancer Ritambhara Sahni says, Belly Dancing is now extremely popular and is recognized as an art form.Many brides want to give their husbands a surprise on their wedding night;or girls want to perform Belly Dancing at the wedding of their friends."Well, since the dance floor is getting hotter, put on your dancing shoes and get ready to groove to the rhythm of the night.

Ritambhara Sahni's Belly Dance Classes in Mumbai |
Awesome Ritambhara Sahni mam. I also love to see belly dance institute Mumbai being credited each time in the news publications. Bombay Times i read daily and i am so glad to see my institute - Ritambhara Sahni's institute being written in bombay times so often. Belly dance now being performed in weddings makes belly dance come a long way from the time is got into Mumbai where it was still considered taboo. Long time to accept the dance form but i have seen belly dance in marriages too being performed by family members in sangeets and functions and it just changes the mood absolutely. I had joint Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai after coming from an extremely conservative family.The type of society that expects young girls to keep their heads covered and lower their eyes in front of men. We barely were allowed to watch TV, though my parents would treat us to an occasional movie. In the eyes of our society, my parents were very broad minded, as they encouraged us to go to school. Though that was as far as they would go with broad minded, my sister and I were grateful all the same. All through school I obsessed over shakira and the flexibility with which she danced. Her confidence was sexier than her moves, or so I felt. As soon as I moved to another city for work, I googled a belly dance institute Mumbai, to shimmy like shakira. And what I received, was learning from a belly dance class in Mumbai who is on par and maybe better than shakira herself. More than learning how to dance with the right techniques up my sleeve, Ritambhara Sahni taught me to believe in myself. The students at Ritambhara belly dance classes in Mumbai also gave me their best reviews and testimonials. I had joint at their belly dance classes in andheri west but would also attend at their belly dance classes in khar west and bandra west at times. I soon danced with my new found confidence and felt anew. The belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara sahni is one of a kind because of the instructor, Ritambhara Sahni. She has taught me to love myself and let my self love and self confidence be expressed in my dance. Also Ritambhara Sahni blog is absolutely inspirational. I read all the belly dance institute Mumbai blogs and love the information i get on the institute, Ritambhara Sahni and belly dance.Consider this as my expeience with or review or testimonial on the institute to share with others and believe me when i say that belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara sahni is the best belly dance classes in Mumbai and that Mumbai can have. Ritambhara Sahni belly dance surly rocks my world.
