Step aside Zumba – there’s a new fitness dance craze in town!
Stars such as Kelly Ripa are raving about Bollywood dance and how it helps them stay toned and fit. The energetic fitness dance blends traditional South Asian style dancing with hip-hop moves to give participants a full-body workout that is also a lot of fun.A post shared by Aatman Workout Celebration (@aatman_workout) on
Experts say due to the high-intensity movements it’s actually possible to burn up to 700 calories per hour. Its movements help focus on the core – busting belly fat and targeting deep-tissue abdominal muscles.Just watched the clip of @MissAmerica and @KellyRipa on LIVE doing Bollywood dance! Loved it! You all should join us @Doonya class in NYC!😊

Because Bollywood style dancing uses a lot of different arm movements, this new dance craze is great for toning up flabby upper arms, defining shoulders and getting rid of pesky ‘bat wings.’A post shared by Nak-Shatra Dance & Events (@nakshatraevents) on
Fancy trying out Bollywood dance at home? If you can’t find a dance class near you, check out Doonya.com. They offer a range of DVD’s and digital files you can try at home – even Kelly Ripa is a fan of the company, saying, “Doonya is the fun, energetic dance workout that will bring out your inner Bollywood star.”A post shared by Doonya (@doonyaworld) on
