SUMMARY:Dance: GHAR/BA: Pride Edition
DESCRIPTION:Allies welcome. An ancient folk dance (Garba) meets House (‘Ghar’) Techno & Disco. For those wanting more than just ‘pride as usual.’\n\n\nGHAR/BA  \nGhar. The Gujarati word for house. \nGarba. An ancient folk dance from Gujarat\, danced in ancient circles to honor the divine feminine\, the generative force at the center of all things. Add the pulse of House\, Techno\, and Disco. That’s GHAR/BA. A home for everyone. \nĀVARTAN (Sanskrit: आवर्तन) : a complete cycle of rhythm. The thing that brings you back around. A chance to start anew. \n————- \nA different type of pride celebration. Not a social mixer with movement as a backdrop\, but an intentionally curated movement gathering in which the rhythm propels participants to build something together. The kind of altered state that can only come from within. Generated by the circle itself. \nWHAT TO EXPECT \n2 hours of guided movement and open floor. \nPart 1 — Dandiya warm-up and Garba drills. \nBreak \nPart 2 — Garba combinations moving into open Garba. The circle takes over. \nDandiyas provided. Snacks and hydration included. \nWHO THIS IS FOR \nLGBTQ folks + allies. Those wanting more than just pride as usual. People ready to be fully in the room. Prior Garba experience is not required — but willingness to sweat\, to follow\, to surrender self-consciousness\, and to give yourself to the collective intention of the space is key. \nDRESS CODE — strictly observed \nBreathable\, loose or flowy athletic wear\, streetwear\, or Indian/Garba dancewear. \nColor palette: solid/blocked- black\, white\, navy/royal\, gold/silver \nSneakers allowed \nNo metal or glass ornamentation — you will be moving in close proximity to others. \nNote: This event will be photographed and filmed for documentation and social media. Purchasing a ticket constitutes consent to this use. \n  \nDietary accommodations for snack allergies must be communicated in advance — accommodations subject to notice received. Please email: avartangarba@proton.me \n  \nRefunds available up to 14 days before the event.
