This mystical dance form exercises coordination, expression, stamina and fun. From its roots stemming from Indian classical dances (bharatanatyam and kathak) to different provincial, folk dances from around India, Bollywood is one of the few dance forms that is constantly evolving &amp; drawing new inspirations from movement influencers within the industry. This class will allow you explore the basic elements of Bollywood dance including body isolations, hand gestures (mudras), flow, footwork and theatrics. With over 20 years of experience from different influential industry and non-industry choreographers, Rameez Karim has developed his own interpretation of Bollywood dance that ranges from more traditional filmi to spectacular fusion numbers. His compositions constantly challenge different movements, their qualities and execution. Let&#8217;s go to the colourful land of Bollywood!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>BIO \/\/ <\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rameez Karim is a queer, Montreal-based multi-dance genre choreographer, instructor and performer. He is the former Assistant Director of Bollywood Blast. He has learned from renowned Bollywood choreographers Saroj Khan, Shampa Gopikrishna and Baba Yadav. He has also learned from celebrity choreographers in Western styles of dance including Pavan Thimmaiah, Mark Samuels &amp; Paul Becker. Rameez has worked for\/ with artists such as Marc Dupr\u00e9, Mia Martina, The Bilz &amp; Kashif, Priyanka Chopra, Diljit Dosanj and Jassi Sidhu.

His work has been presented locally and internationally in Lisbon, Dubai, Mexico and New York City and across Canada.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On June 9, 2019 Rameez launched his new troupe, Veils of Bollywood, at the 15th Annual Choreographer&#8217;s Ball in Toronto, Canada. Rameez\u2019s extensive exposure to different styles of movement has allowed him to create using a vast palette rich in many forms of cultural expression. Being part of the Ismaili Muslim community, he incorporates elements of spirituality and enlightenment into his work. His most recent training in contemporary dance with St\u00e9phanie Decourteille has allowed him to further explore another realm of movement.
