Bollywood Dance in Jakarta

What is Bollywood dancing?

Bollywood dance is about storytelling. The songs are from the movies and are there for a particular reason — for example, a celebration song, a seduction song, a love song, a song of sadness. So when you dance it out, you are dancing to the words and mood. Different songs are used at different occasions … there are tons of wedding songs, which you will hear being played at every Indian wedding!

How does it work?

The dancing itself is a fusion of all dance forms. It could be Indian classical, Indian folk dance, belly dancing, jazz, hip hop and everything else you can imagine. Bollywood is all about fantasy and glamour and there really are no limits to the creativity (or cheesiness).

Why is it good for you?

Bollywood dance is a fantastic workout. It's upbeat, energetic and gets a sweat happening pretty fast. It's also so much fun and makes you laugh.

Who can do it?

Anyone can do Bollywood dance. As it is a fusion, there are a lot of steps which are quite universal, then we just add in the Bollywood touch of Indian hands or the eyes. At the beginner level, it is a very simple dance style to learn.

What are the benefits?

Bollywood dance makes you laugh. It is definitely the most fun way to get fit. It also allows you a moment to escape into a fantasy land and be as emotional, energetic and cheesy as you want to be, with no apologies.

My Cindrella left

Your gleeful smile,your magical hands,
Your strength, your concern and care,
You for being the perfect homemaker,
For making life so much easier for me and the owner,
A relationship of ups and downs,
Wish you would have shared your sorrows,
You said goodbye with a note,
I pray may all your grieves end,
Thankyou for everything,
And I’m full of remorse and guilt
I don’t even have your picture
A relationship I took for granted,
Know it ,the doors are always open
I miss you and wish you will be back.

ps-my maid left and I miss her so much.She was my family and took so much care of me.I hope things get better for her.

Liz Lemon , Food and Me.

The similarities between my own existence and that of the fictional character Liz Lemon (awesomely portrayed by Tina Fey on “30 Rock”) are many, we love to eat things that are bad for us, we make fashion choices that are probably not all that different from what we wore in middle school and we both prefer to wear black, as it ,in our minds ,makes us look thin.

If only ,I too could have a boss like Jack Donaghy in my life to mentor me and show me how to use my money to make more money.

I think a lot of women can relate to Liz, I know I do. Everything from wanting to stay home and ordering carbo loaded food or having body image issues or finding it extremely difficult to stay in heels for too long or in a tight dress for more than an hour or being totally weird.

Would I give up my favorite sandwich to meet a friend of mine whose plane is taking off in seconds? I think I too like Liz would devour my sandwich as quickly as I can and then go to meet my friend. I too believe that I can have it all and so I take up the challenges that every new day brings me , of course there are times when I feel anxious and that’s where food comforts me but I know I will overcome all challenges and eventually shine.

Liz Lemon rocks!!!She makes me laugh and see life from a humorous perspective.After Ally Mcbeal ,I feel Liz is real and easy to relate to.

Would you spend your last dollar on a nail polish or a donut and if your answer is a donut then you too my friend may have a Liz Lemon in you.

Moonerz is officially back.

Dear Readers

It's been so long since i wrote , alot has been happening-good things-i start teaching bollywood dance pretty soon and have been learning belly dance,usual things my job still feels like a chore and my weight has been steadily growing,oh no, I'm not preggers.Although sometimes my body takes over my mind and i do feel like becoming a mommy but then my mind takes over and reminds me,may be not yet, but one day i do want to be a good mommy , actually more like a sexy hot mom.

I just finished watching Delhi 6 and except for Abhishek and colorful Delhi,nothing really interested me.Today i didn't go to work ,every once a month i have an upset stomach(not literally wink).I too am all about work ethics but till the time you are doing your work flamboyantly and are managing to meet your deadlines smoothly ,it's all good.Yes, recently i got a letter of warning for punctuality because i was a minute late and then I went to my HRD and told her that was so uncalled for and in future i assure you I'm not getting one,that doesn't mean i won't be late,it simply means i got things sorted out .How?now that's a long boring story ,trust me ,you don't wanna know.

On marriage front it's all good again except sometimes i go and remind him,you haven't said I love you to me all day ,which annoys him so much, but I can't help it,it's my hormones,that's how god made me.My heart and brain like to keep track of every little small detail ranging from dates to how many times has she worn that same skirt this week.

On toastmaster front ,for all those who don't know what this is,it's a public speaking club, you can google about it and know more,after two more speeches I'm gonna be Competent Communicator....woo hoo.

Recently i had a dumb moment too,i had been reading this book "a thousand splendid sons" all day and whenever i finish reading a book , i feel very artistic and appreciate nature, but it's just a phase which doesn't last long,I like the hulla gulla of Jakarta , it keeps me close to Delhi.So anyhow, the dumb moment, I was on my way to my home when all of a sudden i hear the sound of birds chirping,it was the most beautiful sound i'd heard in a long time and then I'm thinking that this book inspires me and it is a beautiful day ,and then i enter my apartment and realize that i can still hear birds chirping and then i realize the chirping sounds are coming from my bag, from my iPhone ,which has a ghost in itself,the ghost must have switched on the game of catch the bird something.After that i had a good laugh all by myself,i would have shared the story with Sri (my maid)except that my bahasa(Indonesian Language)still sucks and my vocabulary is really limited.

Rest every thing's fine, my maids fine too, she is making aloo muttor and dal hitam right now.

I love you and I am hoping my cousin will keep inspiring me to keep blogging.So sis keep writing.

Cheers,

Munmun

An Anniversary Love Letter

Dear Meetu,

Two years ago today I promised to be your lifelong companion. It has been an adventure, a beautiful journey and a very exciting ride.

From time to time you ask me "Why do you love me?" and I usually answer quickly and without a lot of thought. Loving you is so automatic now, so ingrained in who I am that I forget there was a time before you.

Why I love you comes to me in little reminders every day. The love that you have for the family, your unquenchable thirst for knowledge about our world and the events of the day, the playful pranks that you play on me and Of course the daily love , care and share.

Sometimes my love for your comes in the spectacular occasions where you always seem to shine.When you find a way out even in the worst traffic or when you make a very sincere effort to write a nice letter to me, or when you bungee jumped . You are Flamboyantly generous, inventive, ridiculously silly and always - larger than life pure fun.

I know that when we will have children, you will be a tireless and fantastic parent. It's a side of you I've already seen , I feel so grateful and lucky to be married to you.

Wherever our next adventures take us, I want you to know how deeply I love you, how happy I am just being with you and look forward to the lifetime of experiences we've yet to create.

Love,
Moonerz

"At times the days seemed so long, I thought I'd never make it through,
Then suddenly, out of a dream, I have met someone like you.
I had locked up all my feelings and I'd thrown away the key,
Until your heart spoke a thousand words I knew were meant to be."

Happy Anniversary
To you and me
For all the time we spent together and years to come
With every passing day i reassure myself your the one
