Bollywood Update

[mizarchivist]

I thought it was time for a real Bollywood icon already--- And who else but Aishwarya would do?!

So, class. Despite the snafu about the time (sorry, Deb), the place was just packed. I was stunned. Never had I seen so many people at this place for this sort of class- gratified that there was no way they'd decide not to do it now with easily 20 people in the room- and a little miffed that there was never that kind of turn out for Reshama.

Since I was skipping out on book club to be there, I didn't stay the whole time, however, I'm convinced enough that this class will be worth going to that I got the 10-pass prepay again. Extra bonus: 10 bucks off for signing up on demo night. Sadly, I have forgotten the instructor's name, but it'll get in the cranium eventually. Her style is not particularly like Resh's, for which I'm relieved. She's a lot more bawdy and has definite preference for a bit of a hip-hop/Bhangra vibe. 

It looks like they're sticking to the Monday schedule, which I'm generally comfortable with, although moving to 7:30 instead of 8:30- again, a reasonable switch and means I don't have to start getting ready for bed as soon as I get home. When I left last night they were unsure if the class would start next week or the week after. Either way: I'm ready, I'm there.

The huge turnout might be because it's a demo. We had about that many for Seyyede's belly dance class, but there are really about 8 or so people who signed up and paid. So it's not anything about Reshama--it's just if it's something for nothing a lot of people will show up.

I'm just disappointed that it's at the same time as the new (and really wonderful) belly dance class.

And seriously upset because flamenco has been canceled for the rest of the summer.

They really are keeping bellydancing and bollywood opposite each other? Bad. Move. :/

Sorry to hear about flamenco.
