Meet the Teachers
Rajani Ravikumar
I am an enthusiastic dancer/choreographer from Chennai, India learning classical forms of dance from the age of 4. Having participated and won few reality dance shows back home, I realised I find more joy in teaching and sharing the love of dance with others. I have led a Bollywood dance group and performed alongside 60 dancers at the most prestigious “The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo”. I am passionate about promoting Indian dance and culture in Scotland.
Bollywood classes start with an introduction, warm-up and stretching exercises, followed by learning choreographies, incorporating footwork, hand gestures, facial expressions, and body movements.
Attending these classes can be a lot of fun, as you get to learn new skills, make new friends, and immerse yourself in the rich culture and music of India. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced dancer, there is always something new to learn and enjoy.
