Reliving the golden era through virtual dance competition
Soul & Rhythm Dance Studio founded by Ruchi Mehta, is an elite dance studio in the heart of Pimple Saudagar, Pune. It conducts online classes for kids and ladies. It specializes in various dance forms like freestyle Bollywood, semi-classical & other cultural dance forms. As rightly said, dance is the best stress buster which is very much essential in the current scenario.
Keeping that in mind, Ruchi Mehta and Jiya Jagwani (Core member and Creative Partner of Soul & Rhythm Dance Studio) had organized an online Bollywood Retro dance competition. The iconic event which was basically planned to ‘re-live’ the golden era of 70s, 80s and 90s received overwhelming response from all the participants across the globe. The event had a pool of great talent across various age groups ranging from 4-56 yrs.
All the participants gave their best Retro style performances with a complete retro look. Winning or losing is secondary but the enthusiasm shown by each participant and the effort put in by all of them right from the look, dress, prop, hair style, dance steps,etc was quite commendable. The event was supported by Neeta Razdan Kaul (Founder of NRK Facebook group) and was judged by Trupti Kati (Founder of LOC Facebook group) and Sejal Ray (Founder of Taare Zameen Pe Facebook group).
Soul & Rhythm Dance Studio thanked the supporters of the event, Prachetan Potdar, Ruchi Mehta, Monika Khera, Chitra, Trupti Jadhav, Trupti Kati and Surbhi Thakkar, Nirup Kumar Satpathy.
