Jai Ho! (Hindi for victory to you) is a dance party featuring authentic and exuberant Indian Dance Music (Bollywood & Bhangra) with dance lessons, dance performances and LIVE singing – making it an experience where anyone and everyone joins the fun and dances, regardless of age, culture or nationality. Starting July 30th 2011, Jai Ho! has begun a new residency every last Saturday at TED’s (formerly Berbati’s Pan). The heart of downtown Portland will dance to the infectious Bhangra Beat! Bhangra is a lively form of folk music and dance that originates from the North Indian state of Punjab. Traditionally performed to celebrate the coming of harvest, the bass-heavy, infectious beat of Bhangra is captivating dance lovers across the globe. Bhangra Revolution Dance Party will showcase authentic Bhangra music cultivated in two separate but interactive styles – one is centered in India, typically featuring Punjabi Boliyaan lyrics lead by high, energetic tone of vocals. The other sprang from the South Asian community of the UK-Canada-USA diasporas, and is a fusion of various western genres (viz Hip-Hop, Reggae, House, Dubstep etc) which makes it very musically complex. No previous dance experience necessary as Prashant (Reed College, PCC and PSU World Dance Faculty) will teach a special Bhangra Dance workshop beginning at 10:00 PM. Come early for fun dance lessons and stay late to show off your new moves!
