Are you one of those people who watches Bollywood movies and finds it difficult to stay in your seat?\u00a0 Ellie Steever is a Boston-based graphic designer and BU employee and she was is one of those people. Her love for dance began with competitions as a child, onto classical ballet training into her teenage years, and a study of modern dance at Tufts University. She found her way to BollyX, a dance fitness workout, and was encouraged to become an instructor. Ellie\u00a0always found joy, health and a strong community in dance, and recognized all of these tenants in BollyX. She\u2019ll be teaching BollyX here at BU and is sharing her passion for movement and music.<\/p>\n
This dance fitness class is an hour long with choreography to Bollywood, Bhangra and contemporary songs. It starts off gently and then\u00a0kicks into gear. It includes fun moves including those Bollywood\/Bhangra steps you\u2019d see in the movies, some freestyle poses, and a \u201cperformance\u201d where\u00a0the class\u00a0splits into two groups.<\/p>\n
Ellie loves teaching BollyX and her enthusiasm is infectious – which helps motivate you through the\u00a0intense dance workout you’ll get in her class. She\u2019s teaching a free class as part of FitRec\u2019s Open House, Wednesday, May 4. The summer session 1 BollyX class starts May 31.<\/p>\n
