In the mood to rock the Garba floor this Navratri but not sure where to start? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Garba is all about fun, energy, and those signature moves that everyone loves. Whether you’re a beginner or just looking to brush up on your skills, we’ve got five super simple Garba steps that will have you dancing like a pro in no time. So, slip on your ghagra-choli or kurta, lace up your mojri, and let’s get you ready to shine on the Garba floor!
Dodhiyo: Begin with movements while clapping your hands above your head to ease into the rhythm and feel the musical beat keeping your gestures lively and upbeat to create a sense of joy and fun in your dancing routine.
Teen Taali: Stand tall and clap your hands three times overhead. By doing this action energetically and loudly clapping together with others nearby will uplift the mood. Being one of the most versatile steps, it creates a sense of shared utsav.
Bey Taali: Compared to Teen Taali, lower your claps to chest level and do two gentle claps. This step brings a softer vibe, allowing you to connect with your fellow dancers. It’s a great moment to share smiles and enjoy the community spirit while keeping the rhythm going.
Hinch: Twist your body from left to right moving your arms gracefully like swaying branches to bring an element into your dance routine enhancing its fluidity and gracefulness as you connect with the rhythm of the music and allow your body to move freely in sync with it highlighting the joy of doing garba and conveying your inner self through this step.
Popat: Finish with a jump, spreading your arms like a parrot. This step is the perfect way to end a sequence, radiating joy and celebration. Let your excitement shine through as you leap into the air, inviting everyone to join you in the fun.
