Bollywood dance classes

Country forums / Indian Subcontinent / India

I am taking bollywood and belly dancing classes and I was wondering if it is possible to take some classes while in India. I am not looking for a 2 week 10 hour a day extensive classes.

But I would like to take some half day basic movement or 1-2 day choreography classes. Does anyone know a good place where I could take such a class?

I will be going to Rajasthan/Delhi/Agra/Khajurahio/Varanesi but don't have an exact schedule so it would be easiest if these classes don't need prior arrangement.

There are lots of Vacation / summer classes for these type of activities. You have not said, when you will be coming. The Vacations in India are from April right thru to June, a week here and there. They are in most major cities.

I think a big city like Delhi would be your best bet. Just look up dance schools in the yellow pages. I'm sure you'll find loads. Have fun!

Hi,

Pune has some great classes for Bollywood and Oriental dances (Belly). I know of a guy named Ameen who takes classes and regularly gives gigs to travelling artists and musicians.

You can contact him on his email add:
