Garba is a lively traditional folk dance from Gujarat, India, most often performed during the Navratri festival to honor the goddess Durga. Dancers move in a circle around a central lamp or idol, symbolizing the cycle of life, using rhythmic claps, twirls, and graceful steps set to energetic folk music and drumming.
Bright, colorful attire adds to the festive spirit—women wear chaniya cholis with embroidery and mirrors, while men wear kedias and turbans. Garba is often paired with Dandiya Raas, a stick dance that’s faster and more playful, making the celebrations both devotional and full of joyful energy.

Indian Fusion Dance blends traditional Indian dance styles—such as Bharatanatyam, Kathak, or folk dances like Bhangra and Garba—with contemporary, jazz, hip hop, or other global dance forms. This vibrant and expressive style celebrates cultural diversity by combining classical technique, rhythmic footwork, and graceful gestures with modern choreography and music. The result is a dynamic and engaging performance that bridges tradition and innovation.
In this class, dancers will explore a dynamic blend of movement styles while building strength, coordination, and stage presence. Throughout the journey, students will experience a transformation—not just in their technique, but in their confidence, creativity, and connection to culture and storytelling through dance. The class culminates in a live performance, giving dancers the opportunity to shine on stage and share their fusion journey with an audience.
Children and Adult classes too!
Thank you, Amruta! Loved your choreography and your breakdown of the steps was really good. Looking forward to many more. Please keep me informed for Garapati, Lezeem etc.

Blending Cultures Through Movement
Rooted in the rich traditions of Bharatanatyam and Indian folk dance, I began my dance journey at a young age, immersed in the rhythms and storytelling of my heritage. As my passion for dance grew, I expanded my repertoire to include tap, jazz, and contemporary styles—each adding new texture and dimension to my artistic voice. Today, my choreographies are a vibrant fusion of East and West, tradition and innovation, seamlessly weaving classical grace with modern flair to create a unique and expressive dance experience.
