Banmala borrows elements from Bhangra dancing, a lively folk dance of Punjab,and Bharatanatyam to create earthy yet high energy fusions, which they blend generously with their Tribal Fusion choreographies. In this workshop we will learn a vocabulary of Bhangra and Bharatanatyam inspired dance moves and combos, and will put them together to create improvisational dances, all set to thumping modern music. This workshop is ideal for all skill levels. $20 - class limited to 35 students For all workshops, wear comfortable clothing: yoga pants, fitted tops, and hip scarves. Sports bras recommended for Indian Fusion as it's very bouncy. ~ Sign up for all three workshop for $50 ~ PDF format Summer Thunder Workshop Registration Form Watch Tracy of the Prairie Fire Spinners in Action!
