Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni - Belly Dance Belts, Costumes, Props....

Belly Dance a Dream a come true in every way at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni.

So, not only to learn belly dancing is a dream but to dress up like a Belly Dancer too. And of course if you are ready with your belly dancing belt, costume and necessary props then why not perform :) says Ritambhara Sahni and her students at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai.

 Today we talk about 2 Types of Belly Dance Belts that look great to Perform according to me - Ritambhara Sahni..and the inputs from my belly dance teachers and gurus.

 When we perform on stage, the music is so loud that the effect of belly dancing cannot be felt by the noise of the belly dancing belt / hip scarf but by the effect it creates or how the belt appears on the costumes. We will be talking about Belly Dance Belts, Scarves , Costumes and Props in our following posts to come as well but today we are going to talk about 2 belly dancing belts that create a great effect when you perform. 


Belly Dance Belts - Coin Belts

Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni - Belly dance Belts Mumbai
Belly Dance Belts at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni


These belts hardly make the noise which makes you feel good while learning as that makes you connect with the beautiful dance art. However these coin belts look great on costumes and create some amount of jingle as well. They are usually available in Gold and Silver coins. And just that metal belly dance belt on any color of the costume will make the costume and the color stand out.  We at belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni recommend that these coin belts should not be worn to learn as they do not let you connect with the dance art as they make very little noise on the shimmy and other techniques but are great on costumes.We believe that when your belly dance belts make noise , you connect more with the dance art. This is our belief .

Belly Dance Belts - Fringe Belts

Belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni belly dancing belts Mumbai
Belly Dancing Belts at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni


 Fringe Belly Dance Belts look Beautiful on casual wear and costume wear but do not make any noise. The effect they create when you move is amazing to the eyes of the audience. A great belly dance belt to be worn on stage to perform as the effect looks bewildering. The effect they create when you turn and sway your hips left and right is just amazing. These belly dance belts - fringe belts are available in gold and silver metal. Again we at belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni recommend that you do not wear this to learn but definitely use this belly dance belt to perform because it makes no noise and i , Ritambhara Sahni believe that the noise of the belly dancing belt helps you to connect with the dance art. Have felt and learnt this from my belly dance teachers as well.




Found this video on various type of Coin belts - Must watch

Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni

Its not easy to shimmy and shake like Shakira especially for an accomplished Bharatnatyam dancer, Discarding Abhinaya and mudra theatre and voice artist Jyoti Sharma , 62, is learning to sway her body to Arabian music at Ritambhara Sahni's Belly Dance Institute Mumbai.

Jyoti Sharma , [Senior Citizen] has chosen a path more unconventional and found her happiness in belly dancing at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni.


Jyoti Sharma's review / testimonial on belly dance Institute Mumbai and Ritambhara Sahni

I am 65 years old and had come to a stage in my life where I had become lonely and depressed. I once saw a newspaper write up in the Times of India - Bombay Times about Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance classes in Mumbai. It definitely got me connected as I use to be a bharatnatyam dancer once upon a time. I decided to join Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance classes in Mumbai despite all the apprehensions I had about my age and other low self esteem issues that had become a part of my life because of my age. After joining belly dance institute Mumbai , all I can say is that I have got a new life. I am addicted to this dance form like a school child and I work at it daily and maybe all the time. Also i have gotten very attached to my belt dance belt. Its just always there with me in my handbag if i am out and at home i wear my belly dancing belt simply almost all the time to practice my moves and choreography. i feel these belly dance belts motivate you in a very natural way to belly dance all the more than you want to.Belly Dancing Belts add the magic to belly dance. Ritambhara Sahni mam -  with her motivation and patience as a teacher has made me feel young all over again and I am an extremely happy person today. I would definitely say this all ladies out there that age is just a number, You would not think about your age if you start belly dancing as belly dance makes you feel what you wish to feel and I agree with Ritambhara Sahani-as she always says ' belly dance makes a girl feel like a woman and a woman feel like a girl'

BELLY DANCE – RITAMBHARA SAHNI’S CHILDHOOD DREAM – CREATOR AT BELLY DANCE INSTITUTE MUMBAI BY RITAMBHARA SAHNI



Ritambhara Sahni – in her words…


Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni

Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance
RITAMBHARA SAHNI




My mom and brother use to love watching James Bond movies. Old ones, very old ones, new ones…Me and my family saw almost all of them in my childhood days. I use to dance and perform from my very early childhood days..not belly dance but all other dance forms like Jazz, Old school Hip Hop, etc.

‘From Russia With Love’ – I’m sure some of you’ll reading this must have either seen this James Bond classic or heard of it at least. Well, if not It’s a MUST WATCH as it’s in exactly this movie that I saw BELLY DANCING for the 1st time in my life and I went crazy. So yes it’s a must watch for that BELLY DANCE SCENE :)..  IT’S EXACTLY AT THIS POINT OF MY LIFE THAT LEARNING BELLY DANCING BECAME MY DREAM.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrsRapiOMn0
[here is the link to the scene i am talking about ]

I use to try really hard in front of the mirror to imitate the belly dancer from the movie scene but never really achieved all the moves. My roots in old school Hip Hop helped me crack some of the moves but not all. I had achieved a lot in almost all other free style dance forms but this surly was a mystery. Trying hard to belly dance and look like these dancers was making me insane. Some of the moves had become an unachievable dream. Because of academics could not travel abroad for a long long time.

And finally one day I saw this beautiful mesmerizing pop singer belly dancing to her song ‘ WHEREVER WHENEVER’ and I went crazy all over again. I totally give Shakira the credit to not only popularize belly dancing all over the world but also to change a lot of viewpoint about belly dancing which is there in this blog if you click on the this link. 


  Yes, Shakira got me insane to learn the art of belly dancing. I realized that there is and could be so much more to belly dancing than what I saw in Shakira’s video. Managing some moves was a piece of cake for me because of my strong roots in popping and locking and old school Hip Hop but not all. I wanted to and had to explore more in this beautiful dance art of belly dancing. I was teaching and running my Institute Ritambhara Sahni’s Institute For The Performing Arts [ RSIPA] at this point and time of my life which taught many free style dance forms. My students all over my centers across Mumbai also kept asking me to teach them belly dance. So as soon as I got the opportunity I travelled abroad to fulfill my childhood dream.


Learning belly dancing at various places all over the world was a beautiful experience which I cherished and can never forget. I also realized that I was so so right that belly dancing and popping and locking have so many similar elements. Some moves that I could not figure out had a different concept of doing from what they really appear and of course were easy to do.

Must admit that being a dancer and a professional dance instructor, Performer and choreographer back then in Mumbai, I learnt and mastered the art of belly dancing and its various props and fusions quite fast. Back then in 2001-2002 no one really taught belly dance In India forget Mumbai. But I still dint start to teach this dance form in Mumbai. I taught a few students a few moves and choreography’s doing belly dance workshops as I still felt I had so much to explore in this dance form. So I kept travelling abroad to explore each and every prop, fusion, style and every aspect of this dance art.

I finally launched Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni in 2005 and my dream to not only learn, learn more n more, to teach , to perform , to choreograph, to create performers , to help people make a career in this beautiful dance art has been going strong ever since and I’m not going to stop. My dream is to keep learning belly dance and other dance forms, keep teaching , help my students create a career as belly dance performing artist, help them start their own institute, help them as belly dance choreographers and whatever they wish to achieve in this dance from.

YES – BELLY DANCE HAS BEEN MY DREAM, I'M LIVING MY DREAM AND WANT TO HELP MY STUDENTS ALSO LIVE THEIR DREAMS THAT THEY HAVE WITH THIS DANCE ART AND I AM STILL DREAMING. 

Belly dance for me is really a never ending dream and reality.

RITAMBHARA SAHNI - BELLY DANCE INSTITUTE MUMBAI - BELLY DANCE SHOW

BELLY DANCE - A CHILDHOOD DREAM 
TO LEARN AND PERFORM

It is definitely a dream to learn this beautiful dance art but its also always been my dream to perform this beautiful dance art which i did long ago. I also always dreamed  of making my students learn and perform which i full filled long long ago in my show HIP-NOSIS MUMBAI. My 1st show had 200 belly dance students who got together on one stage to create the fire Goddesses create.
Its exciting when i organise my event HIP-NOSIS MUMBAI which is a platform for so many of my students to perform. Have created a syllabus for them to learn how to choreograph their own  performance to eventually perform the same and to get them close to look like a professional belly dance artist.


BELLY DANCE INSTITUTE MUMBAI BY RITAMBHARA SAHNI
RITAMBHARA SAHNI'S STUDENT IN HIP-NOSIS MUMBAI

The exciting part of a belly dance show is the costumes , the make up , the lights , the stage. You definitely do make a lot of friends and performances for so many students of mine has been life changing. Colours of the costumes take you into a different mood and world. Dressing up for the show is always a lot of fun.The practices are definitely the most fun part especially when you trying your best to co-ordinate in a group sequence. The feeling of everyone putting in the effort to co-ordinate for achieving the same goal is a magical experience.

News Article on Belly Dance By Ritambhara Sahni (Hindustan Times) Belly Dance Institute Mumbai By Ritambhara Sahni

Ritambhara Sahni Belly Dance
BELLY DANCE INSTITUTE MUMBAI BY
RITAMBHARA SAHNI

All the credit apparently goes to the video of Shakira’s hit single Whenever, Wherever, where she is seen belly dancing to jungle beats. According to choreographer and dance instructor Ritambhara Sahni, who runs The Belly Dance Institute in Mumbai, the perception of the dance form got a much-needed boost due to the pop star. “It suddenly got accepted in India. Earlier, people looked down upon it. That image has changed now,” says Sahni.
RITAMBHARA SAHNI BELLY DANCE
RITAMBHARA SAHNI

On January 28, a show titled Hip-Nosis, The Ultimate Belly Dance Show of The Great Goddesses will bring together 200 young women from the city for a belly dancing performance. As part of it, they will move to Arabic, Egyptian and Bollywood beats.

 Sahni, more importantly, is happy that the women who come to her institute, some of whom are investment bankers, journalists and even schoolteachers, don’t hesitate any more. “Belly dance is not akin to mujra
. The beauty lies in the way the dance is performed. It is a very sensuous form, which if presented well, looks sophisticated.”

She also dispels the myth that one needs to have a flat stomach to be able to do justice to the dance. “Any woman can do this irrespective of their shape or size. In their performance this weekend, the girls will also use props like veils, finger cymbals and swords for a balancing act.”
At the same time, Sahni insists that belly dancing also has many health benefits as it helps a woman emotionally, physically and mentally. She says, “For me, belly dancing is spiritual. It targets your
 core muscles and shapes you up. Not only do your stomach muscles get toned, it also works wonders for your curves.”

Review / Testimonial by Our student at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni

 I have always been fond of dancing and it has always been something that I enjoyed. But after having my baby 5 years ago, there had been no opportunity to dance. Exercising has also fallen by the way-side… I decided that I needed to start doing something to get some exercise! My health was starting to suffer and my joints had started to hurt and my shoulders were sore . And So, it was with great anticipation and excitement that I joined up for the 3 months beginner's course in belly dancing hosted by  - Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai. A friend recommended me to join her institute and had great things to review about this belly dance class in Mumbai. She was at the Colaba center and i joint the belly dance class at their Bandra Khar center and would also practice at their Andheri center at times as we could do so without any extra payments which i truly appreciate. So, i would also love to write my testimonial as my experience with Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance institute Mumbai has become my dreams to dance and belly dance come true and now i am living my dream. 
I didn’t know what to expect and thought that as long as you knew how to shake your hips you were good to go… I could not have been more wrong! From the moment I tied the belly dance belt around my hips I was hooked! Belly dance itself fascinated me but so did the belly dancing belt so much always. I have realized that belly dance belts create a new and amazing experience to belly dance and belly dancing belts was my new addiction. However when i belly dance , i stick to the belly dance belt i have. I am now really attached to my belly dancing belt.  And the pain! Gosh, I could hardly walk for days after my first class! But Ritambhara Sahani mam has opened a whole new world to me and with every belly dance class and choreography that I saw her perform I was more and more inspired, intrigued and mesmerized!
Having completed my first ever performance in Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance show in Mumbai - Hip-nosis Mumbai with my beautiful class mates, it has also taught me that Belly Dancing is for all shapes and sizes and is a form of dance that celebrates being a woman. It has also vastly improved my self-esteem, confidence and self-image. All thanks to Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni , i now only dream like a belly dancer.
- Rihana Savani - student at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai

It was surly a dream to learn the beautiful art of belly dance but we at belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni not only managed to popularize the dance art in our country but also created and made 200 Indian belly dance artists come together on one stage and perform in their belly dance belts and costumes which made the stage shine. It was Mumbai's 1st belly dance show and event- HIP-NOSIS - MUMBAI. We had solo and group performances.
