Dandia or Raas / Garba, is a traditional dance popular in Western India. This celebration occurs during the fallfestival of Navratri (Nav-raa-tree). Dandiya is a dance with short sticks and an ever-changing partner, that promotes great calorie burn! Many folks have tried Dandiya and really enjoyed it. We will have a special training session from 7:00 PM to 7:30 PM for all our newcomers.

Hi, Hidden Hills Elementary is having an auction on feb 1st. I wanted to see if you would be interested in performing at the event. Everyone would really enjoy the performance, it would expose many non-desis to Indian dance and would hopefully attract more desis to the auction. If would also be a great marketing opportunity for next year’s dandiya for education.
Please let me know if you would be interested in this. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks, Sobie, 925-997-9129
