High-Energy Garba & Navratri Dance Workshops
Navratri is all about the vibe! Join me for high-energy Garba workshops in Mumbai and Pune. No expert steps needed, just pure festive spirit and masti.
Our favorite part of this "Khalasi" routine is the "Gotilo" step! A super fun Garba choreography that we created together, complete with festive outfits and high energy.

Eat, Sleep, Garba, Repeat. That's the mantra during my favorite festival! Just a happy moment captured during our Navratri celebrations.

About Festive Beats: Garba & More
Forget about perfecting every single turn or worrying about matching steps with the pro next to you. My Garba sessions are built to make you sweat and smile at the same time, focusing on that infectious rhythm rather than rigid technique. We keep the pace fast so you can walk onto the dance floor during Navratri feeling like you own it, not like you are trying to remember a syllabus.
When the festive season kicks in, I don't just teach steps, I teach how to handle the energy of a crowded circle. We mix traditional Garba beats with a bit of my own modern flair—think BollyHop meets authentic folk movements. It is perfect if you have been wanting to join in the festivities but felt a bit shy about your moves. I host these sessions in top-tier studios across Mumbai and Pune where we have enough floor space to actually move, not just stand in a line. We break down the complicated 'Dholi Taro' or 'Khalasi' hook steps so they feel natural, not choreographed. You will walk away with moves that are actually dance-floor ready, not just studio-perfect. Whether you are coming with your besties or looking to meet new people who love the festival as much as you do, my workshops are basically a pre-party. We film a group routine at the end, so you get some cool content for your feed too. Come in whatever you are comfortable wearing—the only requirement is your energy.
