Turn the light bulb...

This post is dedicated to Viniqua and Lauriah...
So I mentioned that I signed up for a yoga studio in my last entry...the studio that I joined is "traditional" in the sense that the instructors are "Indian Yogi Masters". Anyway, they offer Indian dance classes as well as different types of yoga classes. I joined partly because of the dance classes. Thinking that since I learned Indian dancing when I was younger I'd be a guru. Not the case...

I walked into class with about 40 Chinese women of all ages ready and eager to dance. The instructor was this good looking, early 20s Indian guy ready to groove. The moves started...it was so Bollywood...then the music started...I started cracking up because it was just a funny scene of Chinese women of all ages grooving to Indian pop-dancing.

Loud, heavy pop-indian music began to blare in the studio and all I could think of was Riah and Viniqua at their bday party dancing to that Indian-like song...viniqua saying "turn the light bulb, that's right Riah, turn the light bulb". And riah twisting her wrist in the air and doing her little twirl.

Furthermore, these older Chinese ladies were dancing like it's a Chinese dance. Not sure if anyone knows the difference but I noticed it. It was a mix of traditional chinese movements to Indian pop music. With the exception of ONE girl, the rest seemed like they were getting ready for a Chinese dance performance. And me? I was doing my American, ghetto, hip-hop version of the Indian choreography. "Smile-La", the cute instructor would say....I was smiling alright...cracking up even. OH if only Riah and Viniqua were there, we'd be on the floor dying of laughter. You had to be there...
