In Ritambhara Sahni's words .....

I have always loved Farah Khan as a choreographer and she had given me the 1st prize for my duet performance at the' Malhar ' event at Xaviers College Mumbai when i was in college for my dance performance where i met her for the first time. She absolutely loved my performance and had asked me to join her troupe for a performance. I wish i had done so at that time but circumstances dint permit me to do so. 

I was also one of the first females to belly dance at the Malhar festival . It was an amazing moment to remember on stage wearing my belly dance belt and moving to the belly dance beats. Belly dance itself had left the audience amazed and so many girls from the audience had come backstage just to explore and learn about belly dancing and were crazy about wearing my belly dance belt and trying the moves.They wanted me to start belly dance classes asap when they learnt i also owned Ritambhara Sahni's institute. 

i continued to watch Farah Khan mam's work in Bollywood songs and would really always admire her and missed having the opportunity to work with her. I was running my institute as well - ' Ritambhara Sahni's institute for the performing arts'.  Loved her movie ' Main hoon na' , loved Om Shanti Om and 'Tees Maar Khan' was one movie that i laughed and laughed.

This movie of Farah Khan got me connected to her now through belly dancing. I was also running my institute - Belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni along with my Ritambhara Sahni's institute for the performing Arts .  So belly dancing was picking up in Mumbai and Farah Khan decided to make Katrina Kaif belly dance in her movie and had already announced that Katrina would be belly dancing in her next movie  - ' Tees Maar Khan' on various news channels and publications.

And yes if you remember , we all waited for this movie just to watch Katrina's well toned stomach belly dance for us in the famous song ' Sheela Ki Jawani'. The song was already a rage before the release of the movie and my students and me at Belly Dance institute Mumbai could not wait for the movie to release.

However , Katrina Kaif injured herself in the song shoot while belly dancing and that itself had become  big news for that week. It had come on all the news channels several times a day and was also published in the papers. Star News contacted me for the same. They actually needed advise and an opinion from me - 'Ritambhara Sahni' as a belly dance expert that - ' is it possible to injure oneself while belly dancing ?'

Do watch the full video until the end to know if belly dancing can cause injuries  and also how could one injure oneself with belly dancing. Belly dance Institute Mumbai was started by me in the year 2005 and has been going strong ever since. Belly dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni is the first ever belly dance class in Mumbai.

Review / Testimonial by a student at Ritambhara Sahni's Belly Dance Institute Mumbai



I , frankly,am one of those folks who mostly have had to drag themselves to workouts over all the years I’ve been doing it! I never really joined a dance class as i thought i would be the last person to dance .  No matter what form the workout is I do it because it’s good for me. I do it to stay healthy. I do it to be able to wear great clothes. But when  I started belly dancing at Belly dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni I started little by little feeling differently. But over the last couple months something radical has happened…it’s called Ritambhara Sahni! For me she and belly dance institute Mumbai are the best of the best! Ritambhara Sahani is one great teacher not just to teach the art of belly dance but a great friend and guide. Now I actually look forward to this belly dance  class in Mumbai! Belly Dancing with them makes me feel happy and on top of that  they offer an amazing workout which is submerged withn the belly dance course itself. I’ve scheduled my clients around their class. I drag myself there at times I’ve never worked out before and i also attent as as i can at all their centers which are Colaba, Bandra , Khar and Andheri.. If they taught more I’d be there more. Belly dance has also got more addictive because of dressing up and wearing my belly dancing belt. My belly dance belt makes me so much more motivated to non stop belly dance. I dream about belly dancing and wearing all the various colors of the belly dance belts and the crazy coins in the belly dancing belts and also imagine myself in beautiful costumes. I feel more and more beautiful and good about myself belly dancing these days and the credit for the motivation and the awesome feel goes to Ritambhara Sahni's Belly Dance institute Mumbai.

  1. So lovely to read all your posts Ritambhara Sahni mam. I really want to share my experience with you at your institute. I took the 3 months beginner's course at Belly Dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni in my summer vacation at their bandra khar center and I can honestly say that working with and learning with Ritambhara Sahni mam made this time my best holidays so far! I also attended a few belly dance classes at Colaba and Andheri center at belly dance institute Mumbai and the feeling was equally amazing. I would love to share my experience with Ritambhara Sahni's institute here in the form of my review or testimonial whatever you may like to call it. First of all classes were really professional. Starting with complex warm-up, continuing with exercises for establishing belly dance technique to combinations and choreographies of belly dance itself. Ritambhara Sahni mam gives you also some kind of ‘homework’ – whatever you learn, you’ are supposed to put it into combinations matched to a piece of music, and then discusses them with you. That’s very useful for learning how to compose a good choreography as well developing deeper understanding for Arabic and Egyptian music. Furthermore, Ritambhara pays attention to every detail of your dance to make you as close to perfection as possible. She teaches you not only about the belly dance and it’s esthetic, but also about Belly Dance culture. Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance classes in Mumbai are just amazing. , so besides professional dance training in not only belly dance , but also western dance techniques as i also learnt that she had started Ritambhara Sahni's institute for the performing arts in 1996 with all free style western dance form disciplines, she has that dance ‘in her blood’ and she can clearly explain ‘what is Belly dance’ and ‘what is not’ . I’ve seen many dancers, especially Indian belly dancers , who claim to perform belly dance, however they only impersonate belly dancers from you tube to make there dancing look ‘somehow belly dance’, having no idea about genres of belly dance. Because of Ritambhara's belly dance classes in Mumbai I can now differentiate good dancers from bad ones and I perform something that is more authentic. Besides perfect technique, Ritambhara Sahani has really wide knowledge about the dance and ‘dance mechanics’ that she generously shares with you. Also i must mention how we all are just crazy about our belly dance belts. Belly dancing with my belly dancing belt makes me happy just all the time and takes me into a different mood. Belly dancing belts according to me complete the art of belly dancing and without a belly dance belt i would feel rather feel incomplete belly dancing. I wear a particular pattern of the belly dance belt as that really creates the happy noise i am looking for when i shimmy and i have purchased several belly dancing belts of the same patter in different colors which in turn makes me more happy. Last but not least, Ritambhara Sahni is really warm and friendly person. I was visiting all her centers at colaba, bandra , khar and andheri during my training and one week after that and I felt like a member of the family at belly dance institute Mumbai. Ritambhara Sahni mam was always helpful, always friendly, always very positive! I’m looking forward to having more occasions to study belly dance with her in her belly dance classes in Mumbai at Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance institute Mumbai.

Ritambhara belly dance - you are the best and for me Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni is surly the best belly dance class in Mumbai. So proud to be a part of this insitute. Ritambhara sahni, my teacher, my motivator and my friend. She's been so much to me. She has taught me to focus on my dance and step ahead from my inferiority complex. Consider this as my review / experience / testimonial on my best belly dance class in Mumbai.When i joint here my friends had also given me their life changing reviews and testimonials on this class and i so agree.This place has been life chanfing for me too. My inferiority complex would scream every time I saw the reflection of myself in the mirror against the other girls. Ritambhara sahni believed in me more than I did in myself, by giving me an opportunity to dance solo, in Ritambhara Belly dance show in Mumbai that happens periodically at Belly Dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara sahni. She focussed on strengthening a person's techniques and I've seen her make the most conscious dancer, confident. I was the reverse. A confident dancer but an in confident person. Ritambhara sahni made me a confident dancer as well as a confident person. The positive results I witnessed on the day I performed. From that day on I became a whole new person.Performing in belly dance istitute Mumbai is an experience one must experience. Its the positive thing you can do for yourself. Its been 3 years and 12 levels ever since and I'm a changed person and a confident person because of the beautiful instructor , Ritambhara Sahni. At the end of the day, it's more than flexing the muscles, it's about strengthening the mind and the spirit too. One thing that was told told me right at the start was that they had their belly dance classes in Andheri west, Khar West and Bandra West as well as Colaba and i could attend at all venues. I would advise everyone to make full use of this as it has multiplied my improvment. At belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni I have gained a flexible body and a strengthened mind. Ritambhara Sahni's Institute for belly dance is the Best !!!

  3. Hey Ritambhara Sahni mam !! So nice always to read your blogs and i follow this particular blog of yours as it always has everything about you and i love to know about you always mam. You are the best belly dance teacher in Mumbai and the best teacher i could ever have. so proud to be your student and so glad to be a part of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni. Sometimes life offers the most extraordinary opportunities in the most ordinary situations. Let me share the chance I sought while traveling in the humble trains of Bombay. It was yet another ordinary day that had the humdrum of work and traveling home in Bombay’s most famed local trains. While I stood amongst the many, a foreigner boarded the train. She seemed uncomfortable and I offered a sympathetic smile which was a start to a conversation. As chance would have it, she was returning home from a belly dance class in Mumbai at Bandra and I exclaimed how much I wanted to learn the dance. I really have always wanted to learn belly dancing but only ended up learning the most easily availed Bollywood dance. It never crossed my mind to search on Google, the engine with all the answers! Well, when you really want something, it sometimes finds a way to reach you I suppose. The pretty dance student also shared the contact of the dance instructor and proprietor of the institute - Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni. Cordial, charismatic, amiable, enthusiastic and enterprising is what I can sum Ritambhara Sahni as. She’s a far cry from the stereotype teachers we have all known and dreaded. Ritambhara Sahni is certainly a belly dancer par excellence with a divine grace that truly sets her apart from the rest. She is driven with a certain kind of energy that makes you be only the best. She is full of life’s peppy enthusiasm and yet is extremely charming. Despite the successes she has met in her life, she is extremely approachable and so down to earth. I haven’t performed in the Ritambhara Belly Dance show event that had happened recently but seeing her perform was a delight. She exemplifies everything a woman wants to be, and that’s confident, graceful and magnetic. I could see that in the performance put up on that night by my friend from the train. One could notice that Ritambhara Sahni has mentored her students to dance understanding the music and not by simply memorizing steps. The scintillating night dazzled all the spectators for its sensual dance and alluring confidence which I feel is the hallmark of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni. Had always read the best reviews and testimonials on belly dance institute Mumbai and my review/ testimonial here is at par with all the wonderful things i have heard about Ritambhara Sahni Belly Dance. It is great that i got to attend at Ritambhara Belly Dance classes in Andheri west, belly dance classes in Khar west, Bandra west and colaba and i am so thankful to Ritambhara Sahni's Institute for the same as that helped me improve and emerge as a belly dancer. Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai is the best belly dance classes in Mumbai.
