We are delighted to be joined by local Indian Folk Dance group, Soul Steps, as they prepare for Durga Puja. Join company leader, Rianka Kumar, for an Indian Folk Dance workshop followed by a first glimpse of the groups Durga Puja performance pieces.
Indian folk dance represents the diverse cultural expressions of India’s various regions and communities. These dances are often characterised by their vibrant costumes, energetic movements, and storytelling through music and gesture.
More information about the upcoming Durga Puja event, organised by the Suffolk Bengali Society, can be found here.
