Journal 8.1: Pinga choreography


Our next song to dance on was titled 'Pinga', which is a super peppy, Bollywood number. The choreography part was quite a challenge out here, since we needed to know how the Lavani dance style is done and so we looked up some tutorials on YouTube to get an idea.

Lavani is a combination of traditional song and dance, which is performed to the beats of Dholki, a percussion instrument. Pinga is based a Maharastrian folk song.
The initial 40 seconds was a cakewalk to choreograph. Later, when the faster beats came, it took extra time to think of steps to add. After a month of choreographing, we began the synchronization part of it followed by sharpening each step.
