If you’d rather Bollywood dance at home – check out DVDs from Hemalayaa. You can find them at most Barnes & Nobles’ and Borders’. She has a fun program, “Bollywood Booty.”

If you belong to Washington Sports Club, they offer Masala Bhangra classes at the Capitol Hill, Columbia Heights, Gallery Place, and Silver Spring branches. They’re a lot of fun, and a good workout.
