Now belly dancing in Garba - Full Story on Page Nine
[ This is what was said on page 1 about Ritambhara Sahni Belly Dance Institute Mumbai.]
And when you move to page 9....here it goes....
Now It's Belly Dance Dandiyaa
Navratri is here and it’s time to get those lehengas, chaniya cholis, kedias and kurtas out of the wardrobe. Wait. On second thoughts, you could reach for baggy pants instead of your dhotis! You might just need them while dancing to dandiya tunes- for this year, the traditional cosmic spin’s breaking the mould — with a belly dance, hiphop and salsa twist to it! And folks have been queuing up at dance classes to learn the new steps and show it off tonight onwards.
Trends are getting westernised’
According to dance teacher Ritambhara Sahni, the most popular of all moves is the belly-dance dandiya. “In fact, mothers want their kids to learn it as it’s not just graceful, but a great workout and it also builds the core of the body. It’s working well with dandiya steps as it’s a very adaptable dance form,” she says. And the buck doesn’t stop there. Ritesh Vadera, a regular at Mumbai’s dandiya nights, has got his season pass ready to do “something different at Navratri this time”. “We’ll be doing rapper-style steps and forward flips at the end. Those who saw us practising have been envious,” he grins. The current trend is seeing a westernised spin-off on the traditional dandiya. Says Trupti Thakkar, a dance teacher from Vashi, “Forget, the usual popat and matukki moves. People are taking classes in hip-hop dandiya and they ask for samba steps to be fused with this, too.”
But isn’t the music going to play spoilsport? “No, music can make up for any change. In fact, when we play the older Macarena song, it works perfectly. So do the new Bollywood remixes, which are blended with traditional songs. It’s easy to do the whirl steps with this new, fast version. In traditional style, you tap the stick of the partner before you turn and then move on to tap the stick of the next dancer; it’s like a loop. In the hip-hop blend, you just pause a little more while doing the steps. Guys love it, they’re absolutely rocking to the new beat. The only thing that’s the same are the dress and accessories!”
I would like to thank a wonderful journalist - ' Ismat Tahseen' for this amazing article and also photographer Prathamesh Bandekar for the beautiful pictures.

Today i am assisting Ritambhara Sahni and she is helping me to start my own belly dance class in Mumbai. Ritambhara Sahni is a true teacher and is the best belly dance teacher in Mumbai - Kennie Gandhi
Belly Dance Institute Mumbai testimonial/ Belly Dance Institute Mumbai Testimonials by our students at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni
I am in love with belly dance institute Mumbai, in love with Ritambhara Sahni - my best belly dance teacher and my teacher ever. This is the belly dance class in Mumbai and in the whole world for me. I am glad i joint here. The place is so positive, when i enter and see so many students wearing their belly dancing belts and shimming. The noise of the belly dance belt makes me feel i am in a magical world. I worship belly dance and my belly dancing belt just like in London i worshiped my tap shoes when i Tap danced. Belly Dance Belts according to me complete this dance art. I am a dancer and learnt several forms but Ritambhara Sahni has created a magic in me and has got me addicted to belly dance. I never thought i would have a favorite dance form but after Jazz, Ballet and Tap dancing in London, i am now just addicted to belly dance. I must say that Ritambhara Sahni - her teachings and methods are even far beyond international standards. - Sonakshi Mehta

Ritambhara Belly Dance Institute Mumbai in Bomabay Times for Dandiya Garba Belly Dance Fusion |
Ritambhara sahni belly dance --Always so nice to read all your writes ups that have been coming in the papers over the years. Feels proud to be a part of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni and Ritambhara Sahni's student.I read your blog and also your website and follow your other blogs as well and i love everything you write. I take this opportunity here to share my experience with this belly dance class in Mumbai right here. I am a professional contemprary and modern dancer who occasionally takes yoga. Last year I injured my shoulder and couldn't dance in my second trimester. At that time I started exploring Hata yoga as an alternative. i tried many teachers in Mumbai and the Yoga Classes across Mumbai. Finally I tried Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni after hearing my friends reviews and reading a few testimonials on their website and got hooked after the 1st class. Ritambhara sahni is awesome...she is experienced, patient, caring and has a very generous spirit. Her class is organized and efficient, yet she always leaves room for requests. After recovering from my shoulder injury, with much success, I continued with Ritambhara Belly Dance classes in Andheri west by taking their yoga and belly dance sessions. Its really nice that this belly dance institute Mumbai has belly dance classes in khar west, bandra west and colaba and we can attent everywhere. Again, the continuation of belly dance with Ritambhara Sahni belly dance has been wonderful. I started bringing my sister to class and we both love it. She is now nearly 6 months into belly dance and we are still going strong with the classes. The belly dance institute Mumbai instructors are great and Ritambhara mam continues to support her students' journey through class and performance stage. My body has recovered very quickly from the sholder injury and i feel fantastic in my mind body and soul and my sister has adjusted really well to being around lots of people here at belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni and doing the higher levels and choreographies. So i would like to say in my review here that I can't think of one thing that I would change!! I feel like I have found my new home!!! I look forward to being a part of Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai for a long time!! I would encourage anyone who likes to dance or just move their body to try Belly dance for sure! It's fun and it really doesn't matter if you do it "right" because any movement is better than no movement!! Ritambhara belly Dance classes in Mumbai is surly the best belly dance classes in Mumbai .Ritambhara sahni's Institute is my world.
