Step onto the dancefloor and get ready to shine in a fun beginner-friendly Bollywood dance class exploring how stars are born.
Join researchers from Imperial College London's Astrophysics Research Group and Bollyqueer, a Bollywood dance collective celebrating empowerment beyond gender norms, and become a star in this vibrant Bollywood dance experience.
You’ll dance your way through the epic journey of star formation, gliding like swirling gas clouds, bursting into life like a protostar and glowing with the energy of a newborn stellar nursery.
The session includes a warm-up and an introduction to the science of the night sky and you’ll come away having learned a fun and accessible choreography. No prior dance experience needed, just bring your curiosity and get ready to move like a star!
This is a ticketed event, advance booking will open shortly.
