Alison, Workshop participant

Eden valley hospice

I attended an Indian Dance session which Priya delivered at Eden Valley Hospice for a group of staff and volunteers. After a warmup, we learned some basic Bollywood steps and did our best to follow Priya as we did a little routine. We then did some dancing with sticks which was my favourite part of the class. It involved fairly basic moves while beating out rhythms on our sticks ( a bit like English Morris dancing!). I thoroughly enjoyed the whole session which was tailored by Priya to suit the ability (or lack of ability!)of those taking part. The music was great, it was high energy and, best of all, enormous fun. Can’t wait for the next time!
