Hey Guys! So I thought this blog would be a great educational resource in understanding the Indian culture! One major aspect of the Indian culture is the abundance and importance of dancing, dramatics, and music. Dancing and music, specifically, are key aspects to religion, language and art in India. I am going to take a more narrower approach and discuss the dancing art form of Garba and Raas, both very prominent in the state of Gujarat.
Through this blog, I will discuss the numerous techniques and fundamentals of garba and raas, as well as their significance to the Gujarati Indian culture. I will also delve into the more modern approaches of these dance forms, specifically the Western style and the integration of these dance forms across the United States, as seen by the resurgence of national competitions.
To the right of this blog you will find some youtube videos of what exactly the modern version of garba/raas is! This is my team, Boston University Fatakada! Please watch it to get an idea of what it actually is!
Ill be back soon to discuss the different dancing styles and their significance!!
Enjoy!
