What is Bollywood dance?

Bollywood is an expressive form of music and dance developed from the popular Indian film genre. Bollywood dancing is an innovative, fun way to get in shape ,with steps that intermingle classic Indian dance with folk, Latin, funk and even hip hop moves, offering a fast-moving and vivacious dancing workout that is great for enjoyable group exercise.

The most popular type of Bollywood dancing is Bhangra, which hails from Punjab in northern India. Bhangra is a vigorous and uplifting form of Bollywood dance with strong rhythms and colorful steps.

Needless to say, it’s a fine way to get your body on the right path towards better fitness.

Key Styles of Bollywood dancing.

Bollywood dancing can take a number of different forms, with Bhangra being the most popular inEurope. Here are some of the key Bollywood dance styles:

• Classical Bollywood dance - Based firmly around funky folk rhythms and pounding beats, this traditional version of Bollywood dance sticks to old-school traditions with sensual, gliding movements.
• Kathak dancing - This classical North Indian and Pakistan dance features fast footwork and quick spins. It is often accompanied by live musicians and may follow a narrative or story. Kathak performances usually follow a progression from slow to faster tempos.

Fitness benefit

• Boosting coordination and rhythm - Bollywood dancing requires the participant to fully engage with the musical beats they are moving to. This develops the body’s natural rhythm, as well as its balance and coordination skills. When you take a Bollywood dance class, some of the steps may be daunting at first. As you develop more skills, you will increase both your coordination and rhythm. Bollywood dancing can also boost your ability to balance and move with the music.

• Developing aerobic exercise - Bollywood dance is incredibly active and provides the body with some great aerobic exercise, boosting the oxygen supply to key muscles and therefore improving muscular resistance over time.

• Toning the body - The outgoing and expressive beats of Bollywood dance music can’t help but get your body moving quickly. This is great for burning off calories and helps to tone the muscles all over the body. Bdance can also increase your flexibility, especially in the legs and arms.

• Relieving stress - Bollywood dancing provides a happy and fun version of traditional Indian dance. As a result, it’s a great way to forget your worries, with dance routines refreshing the mind and blowing cobwebs away.

At suggestion of Master Praveen, NShape Fitness will hold a small celebration of one of the biggest Indian festivals – ‘Diwali’ – The ‘Festival of Lights’ on 26th October 2011.

In Indian culture, on Diwali, people light up ‘diyas’ (small clay lamp) and candles all around their house to signify the triumph of the good over the evil, and share sweets and snacks with family members and friends.

Let’s come and exercise at NShape Fitness, enjoy the soft and ambient lighting of candles and some sweet candies shared by our Indian yoga master! Feel free to bring our candles and lamps to join us!
