Learn & Perform – Bollywood Thriller Halloween Dance w/ DJ Prashant
BOLLYWOOD THRILLER
RESERVE YOUR SPOT!
AS SEEN ON KATU2 TV –> https://youtu.be/JRoKN3I851o
༺༻
Imagine a scene straight out of a Bollywood Horror film!
An Indian wedding has gone awry as an ungodly blast during the 7-circles-around-the-fire ritual transforms the attendees into, well, Bollywood dancing Thriller zombies! This is the dream (more like a nightmare) sequence on which choreographer & DJ, Prashant conjured up the Bollywood Thriller dance in 2011 with help from his dance partner, Brittany Newton.
Set to a musical mashup of a Hindi Indian wedding song with Michael Jackson’s Thriller, the Bollywood Thriller is a perfect amalgamation of iconic dance moves from both Bollywood films & the Thriller dance itself. Paired with Prashant’s popular Jai Ho! Dance Party, The Bollywood Thriller has, over the years, grown into an infamous Halloween dance party complete with a costume contest & even a midnight performance.
༺༻
WAIT… IS THIS A DANCE OR A PARTY?
Good question. It is both & more! You can join Prashant weekly on Wednesdays to learn the dance & then perform it at our virtual Halloween party on October 31. More than the dance & the party itself, we hope you will find a beautiful inclusive dance community to be part of as well!
༺༻
DO I HAVE TO BE IN PORTLAND TO ATTEND?
Now in its 10th year, and with the world under lockdown, The Bollywood Thriller is going virtual, & thereby, GLOBAL! So no matter where in the world you are, YOU can be the star (or villain) at our weekly virtual dance classes culminating into a horrific costume party on October 31!
༺༻
HOW DO I JOIN THE PARTY & DO I HAVE TO WEAR A COSTUME FOR IT?
Register for our Halloween Costume Party on our website at https://dreamsperfected.com
Party will stream LIVE online on October 31, 8pm (PST) onward.
Costumes are a great way to assume a new identity & free yourself to be goofy & fun. But by all means you can attend as you are. Costume is not required. If you are going to join on Zoom, we strongly encourage you to put on a costume. It will help us to facilitate the costume contest on there.
༺༻
ARE THERE VIDEOS TO LEARN FROM?
We recommend taking the classes if you have never done this before. That said, there is a 15 videos tutorial series at http://bit.ly/learn_bollywood_thriller
Make sure to like, comment & share if you find these helpful. 😉
༺༻
WHO CAN ATTEND THE BOLLYWOOD THRILLER?
We welcome all beings living, dead or undead, from this world or the ones above & under us to join in the celebration. You can purchase a ticket to support us & to show off your outfits at the costume contest on Zoom, donate what you can, or even join us for FREE via YouTube/Twitch . No creature will be turned away for lack of funds from this spookiest celebration on the web.
The music for this deadly dance party is curated by DJ Prashant, it will feature banging Bollywood tunes mixed with ghastly other-wordly sounds.
༺༻
HOW CAN I HELP MAKE THIS PARTY EVEN MORE AWESOME?
Aha! Now we are talking.
At a time when hate seems to be spreading like wild fire. And wild fire is literally engulfing a chunk of the west coast. It would mean the world to us if you want to be an ambassador of joy & help spread the information about this joyful celebration to your loved ones.
From your neighbors & coworkers, to your friends & family all over the world – let’s come together to celebrate Halloween, Bollywood style!
You & your squad will dance hard & be that much happier for having joined. This is our promise to you!
