Our Story
Who are we? What do we do? Why do we do it?
Garba Flow is a Gujarati Folk dance, music, and arts organisation that hopes to spread the art of Gujarati Folk culture across the UK and the world. Born from a need to create a space where Garba can be explored, learned, and celebrated, Garba Flow has grown into a positive community that loves all things Garba!
​
With more than 10 years of experience, we have been creating and participating in unique projects. These include original music videos, classes and workshops, and live cultural performances. Garba Flow has provided those that are passionate about Garba and Gujarati dance a platform to express themselves and meet like-minded friends. Our classes provide technical training and an insight into Garba in a positive, mindful environment. We build confidence in anyone who wishes to expand their knowledge on Garba Dance and lead a fun active lifestyle.
What We Do
Garba London Workshops
We love to give people an insight into Garba and a chance to top up or brush up on their Garba skills and knowledge. Our workshops always deliver Garba goodness in a variety of ways, depending on the theme and aim of the specific workshop. We have run in-house workshops and have catered bespoke workshops for family parties, corporate events, and schools too. We are always open to new ways so get in touch for more!
Garba Fitness Classes
Garba Flow classes merge the stunning technicalities of garba dancing with everyday fitness. We'll give you a basic understanding of the movement of Garba as well as push you to the limit! Get your blood pumping whilst also learning some amazing moves that you can then use during Navratri. All ages and genders are welcome!
Garba Technical Classes
Our Technical Classes will allow you to learn the specific footwork and grace of Garba and the various styles. We will hone in on the background of Garba along with teaching the reasonings behind the way that the dance is performed. We will also cover more Garba theory and give an insight into the music, themes and flavours of different Garba styles.
1-2-1 or Bespoke Classes
Our 1-2-1 classes give you a unique experience with our undivided attention. We go deep into the correct postures, forms, and movements of Garba dancing. For our bespoke classes, we can tailor the teaching to what you want to learn, whether it be a particular type of Garba style or a specific dance routine you want to learn. Stay tuned!
