Dance teacher Ritambhara Sahni says the craze for belly dance mixed with garba has really kicked off in Mumbai. "People are quite excited about this fusion, which started last year. What is interesting is that women who have never danced in their lives, want to try it out too. " A post on the garba- belly dance fusion by Ritambhara caught everyone's eyes. "Belly dance has a certain lure to it; it's one the most exotic and graceful moves and brings out individuals feminine side. Garba is as graceful, so an amalgamation of the two is a hit, "she says.
So how does one achieve a belly dance-dandiya raas blend on the dance floor? "We first identity moves that can be merged, such as hip thrusts and lifts, shimmies, figure eights, certain undulations and infuse then into the traditional moves ," reveals Ritambhara adding "Both moves effortlessly blend while moving in a circle, where the entire sequence is 70 percent garba, dandiya with a little belly dance added to it." she explains. And guess what this dance form also tones you! "You can burn 300 calories an hour with belly dance. And when it's blended with garba, you burn around 500 calories an hour," she informs.
