We certainly do! We believe "Bollywood" is not just one specific style of dance, but a collage of many dance styles set to chart-topping Bollywood songs. Traditionally, Bollywood dance has been associated with the 'hip-shaking', 'light-bulb twisting' types of moves. We bring you Bollywood dance at a new level with true elements of Modern, Jazz, Hip-hop, Salsa and Lyrical dance. In addition, we incorporate the deep roots of traditional folk and classical South Asian dance forms such as Bharatnatyam, Raas/Garba, Bhangra (it's not that we use each of these styles in every single choreographed piece - that would not be Bollywood dance, it would be Bollywood 'khichdi'). We use the best songs from the film industry, including the hottest remixes out there! Each song has it's own feel and vibe. We create routines which are connected and appropriate to truly interpret each song. Our company's ultimate ambition is to transform every student into great dancers and powerful performers and on stage performance is a key aspect of our Bollywood dance program - it helps build confidence, improves dancing & performance skills, impresses family & friends and we believe it's every student's right to have a blast stage!"
