This will be an engaging session that combines high-energy Bollywood Dance Choreography and Cultural learning on a weekly basis for 6 weeks! We will learn fun and active dance moves, focusing on rhythm, coordination, memory. Kids will gain a bigger cultural context while learning the dance routine. My approach to teaching is interactive. I break down steps in a way that is easy for learners to relate to things they see & activities they do everyday. No prior experience needed. Each class will alternate between dance components with 2 short breaks where we will learn cultural information via colorful pictures. General class structure includes a warm up, dance routine, colorful pictures to enforce cultural concepts, and cool down stretches. On the last day, dancers are encouraged to wear festive (Indian or non-Indian) outfits and perform the dance we learned during the session! WEEKLY BREAKDOWN: Week 1: Warm up, dance moves, cultural learning, cool down Week 2: Warm up, dance moves, cultural learning, cool down Week 3: Warm up, dance moves, cultural learning, cool down Week 4: Warm up, dance moves, cultural learning, cool down Week 5: Warm up, dance moves, cultural learning, cool down Week 6: Review and recital!
Learning Goals
