[ in Ritambhara sahni's words ]

I must say Jacqueline is a beautiful person and i totally love her. It was an honor teaching her and of course it goes without saying that she herself is inspiring.
Working with many actors in the film industry I, Ritambhara Sahni have to say that our Bollywood actors work really hard to achieve great performances. I have taught many actors in the past be it Hip Hop, Bollywood running my institute Ritambhara Sahni's institute For the Performing Arts and also taught Belly Dancing to so many as i have been running Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni since 2005. I have seen them work hard at it.The pressure to perform on screen in front of the world can surly create that magic. Will post about my experiences with them soon in my next posts. Teaching Jacqueline is an experience i must say and any dance teachers delight, she is so flexible and is a great dancer and belly dance performer and i can attest that. Watching her shimmy in her belly dance belt made me go crazy at my belly dance class in Mumbai.- Bandra center.

 Jacqueline loves to belly dance and dance and i love the way she gives the importance to dance in our Indian Film Industry. She surly worships each dance form and is dedicated and passionate to the art of any dance form including belly dancing of course. I, Ritambhara Sahni have totally felt this being with her for so many days now. She loves to belly dance and i really cant wait to see her perform belly dancing wearing a shimmery belly dancing belt and costume in a movie sometime soon.

 Running both my institutes- Ritambhara Sahni's Institute For the Performing Arts [ since 1996 ] and Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni [ since 2005] i have realized that Music and dance has been an essential part of Bollywood filmography. Belly dancing has been a great influence in Bollywood dance sequences. The many forms of belly dancing like Arabic, Egyptian, Turkish, Lebanese are used in our Bollywood dance sequences with the costuming , props and the infamous belly dance belts. Belly Dance has been more familiar to the westerners.

 Zeenat Aman was the 1st one to have incorporated belly dancing in a song from ' The Great Gambler' wearing a red dress she managed to sizzle on screen but dint quite have the belly dancer's swag so is said. [ I disagree] and  i love Zeenat Aman mam and you have come in my dreams belly dancing in your ' Laila Main Laila' song.

Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai cannot get over Zeenat Aman's look. Love her in this red costume and the embroidered belly dancing belt over it. 

Queen Helen of the Indian  'item song ' industry has always incorporated belly dance moves in her numbers. Mehbooba O Mehbooba from Sholay movie has always been remembered as one of her best performances. I love you Helen mam- grew up dancing to all your songs.

Also, in the recent years glimpses of belly dancing have seen in 3 songs of Katrina Kaif - Afghaan Jalebi [ Ritambhara Sahni loves this song and Ritambhara sahni loves this song - oh how i can go on...] from Ek Tha Tiger, Mashallah Mashallah, and Sheela Ki Jawani of Course.Not much of belly dancing but a few moves blended in with Bollywood dancing , but all the 3 songs got popularized for belly dancing. Belly Dance Institute Mumbai loves you Katrina for popularizing belly dancing so much here in India and changing the view point of so many. You were and are awesome.

    Wow Ritambhara Sahni mam. This is so wonderful to read and i love to read all your articles and I want to start by saying that, my time dancing with Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni was by far some of the best years of my life.I joint you on hearing and reading wonderful reviews and testimonials from so many of my friends who had joint you and i cant help but write my testimonial here write now. So, i must say here in my review that we had so much fun and achieved so much. I was with Ritambhara Sahni belly dance classes in Mumbai since the age of 14 until now into my 19th year. Ritambhara Sahani has been a friend, a college and a fabulous dance teacher and my best belly dance teacher in Mumbai and in my life. Not only did she teach me to dance and belly dance to the best of my ability but helped me with everyday life. I feel this shows what a fantastic person she is. That being said her professionalism was second to none. She achieves amazing things with regards to belly dance exams and belly dance shows at her belly dance institute Mumbai. Ritambhara Sahni does not put pressure on any student to produce 'results' she teaches to see the enjoyment and excitement on her students faces. Unlike other belly dance classes in Mumbai and dance schools Ritambhara Sahni's students mean everything to her which makes Ritambhara belly dance classes so wonderfully enjoyable and a friendly place to be. This belly dance class in Mumbai also made me fall in love with my belly dancing belt. The day I entered at Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance institute Mumbai and saw the students with their belly dancing belts, i was just dying to have one of my own. after learning a few techniques , i finally got my belly dance belt and now i am a proud owner of so many colors in my belly dance belts collection. I have had the honour of working with Ritambhara Sahni as a helper in my older years at the institute and i worked with her at all her centers ..be it Colaba, Bandra, Khar or Andheri, and I enjoyed every minute. The best employer by a long shot. Ritambhara Sahni mam gives every student an equal opportunity and gives up her time to help them achieve the best results. I believe this is key to her success. I would without a doubt recommend Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni to every Girl and Lady. I shall be enrolling my sister as soon as she is old enough. The whole teaching environment at Ritambhara Sahni's Institute and Ritambhara Sahni's instructors that work with Ritambhara Sahni take on all these qualities also and any belly dance class you take, you are sure to have fun and want to return.

    Wow- Ritambhara sahni belly dance - you are just awesome and this is so awesome. I love Jacqueline and its so amazing that my best teacher in the world is teaching my fav actor in bollywoood. Its great that you share all what you doing in your website and blogs and i am really enjoying reading your blog each time. I started taking Belly Dance with Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai sometime in the summer of 2014. I work about 42+ hours a week and still somehow find time to make as many belly dance classes as possible either at Ritambhara belly dance classes in andheri west or Ritambhara Belly dance classes in khar west & bandra west. Sometimes even attend double at both centers. : So here is my experience/ testimonial with Ritambhara sahni's Institute in the form of my testimonial here-- I am a business owner. Oh, yeah, I had also returned to karate classes for my second degree! I was a little bit busy! I was always very active in various forms of dance until my business started. Time went by and, when I turned my concentration to dance and fitness, I realized that I seriously needed to get back in shape. I tried many different kinds of exercise routines but nothing held my interest for very long. I had heard of Belly Dance from a friend who would attend at belly dance institute Mumbai who was nearly obsessed with the classes she took and obviously gave me the best review and also introduced me to her friends who go there also heard their testimonials and was satisfied. Eventually I decided that nothing was working and began trying to think of the kinds of things that I had enjoyed as a younger person and the things that had kept me in shape. DANCE! So I decided it was time to find a belly dance class and try it out. I found Ritambhara Sahni belly dance classes very close to my home and also hearing my friends reviews ...i went, enrolled and I am hooked!! I look forward to class all week long!! I would encourage anyone to join us here at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni. I enjoy the belly dance classes here very much!!! Exercise is not so boring any more as i am doing it in the form of dance!!! So far I've done 9 levels and haven't done any other workout besides gym. I've brought my mom, aunt, and my friends and all love it here at Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai!
