Looking Back at 25 Years of Energy
Fitness trends come and go, but the energy stays the same. Take a look at some of my favourite throwback moments from the past two decades of training, performing, and moving with all of you.
A very old video from a large-scale Zumba event. It's amazing to look back and see how far we've come. The passion for fitness and performance was there from the very beginning.
Those were the days! A blast from the past with my VLADE Girls. Time flies, but memories of powerful performances like this one are forever.
Remember the time? A throwback to an early VLADE Fitness outdoor session. We've been bringing fitness to open spaces for years, long before it became a trend.
Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our hearts. An older video of the VLADE Girls spreading joy at an outdoor event. This has always been our core philosophy.
About From the Archives
These archives capture a time before dance fitness became over-commercialized content. What you see in these clips isn't choreographed just for the camera; it is raw energy from sessions where the only goal was getting people to break a sweat and drop their inhibitions, whether it was a local park session in Rohini or a massive marathon warm-up in Noida.
Looking through these old files, I realize that while the faces and venues have changed, the core philosophy remains the same. When I started 25 years ago, the focus was on 'mehnat' (hard work) and genuine connection. We didn't have fancy studio lights; we had open grounds, loud music, and a community ready to move.
The VLADE Evolution
My journey began with small, high-intensity groups where I learned that you cannot fake energy. If you are a trainer, you must lead from the front. Over the years, this evolved into the VLADE style you see today—a mix of Zumba, HIIT, and Bollywood fitness that doesn't just train your body but lifts your mood.
Why the Archives Matter
Most people look for polished, perfect movements. I look for the 'Jalwa'—the moment when someone who was hesitant to dance finally lets go and enjoys the beat. These photos and videos are proof that whether it is a corporate team-building day, a school sports fest, or a massive public marathon, the principles are identical. We strip away the boredom and the judgment, and we just move.
If you are planning an event, these aren't just memories; they are a blueprint. I bring the same fire to every session, regardless of the scale. Whether you need a 30-minute warm-up for a race or a full-day engagement for your employees, the intent is consistent: make it real, make it count, and keep the energy high.

I don't just teach steps; I push people to show up for themselves. Whether it is an early morning park session or a large corporate stage, my job is to make sure you walk away with more energy than you started with.
