This week’s Bhangra Beats class with the girls from SELF magazine was amazing. These girls came prepared to dance, workout, and enjoy the cultural aspect of Bhangra Beats. Each and every one of them picked up the moves really quickly and kept asking for more. They are by far the most in-shape and energetic group I have ever taught. Thanks to Meaghan Murphy (Fitness Director of SELF), Jen O’Neill (Editor), Liz Miersch, Amy Gallo, Cristina Tudino, Natalie Hawwa, Abbi Libers for a great class. 
I had such a blast girls and I hope to see you guys again soon!

DC Classes

Here is a recent e-mail I received from Anisha, “I just wanted to say thank you for being in the DC area so much, and I hope you continue to give classes here because I really want to take some in the near future!  I have schedule conflicts for some of your upcoming classes, so I can’t take them, but I do plan to get some friends together and attend future ones that you’ll hopefully have again here in DC - so please don’t stop giving classes here in DC! :)”

For those of you who may have similar concerns, don’t worry I’m not going away anytime soon. Please feel free to reach out to me if you do have questions about where my current DC Bhangra Beats classes are being offered.
