Celebrate Diwali with circle dances from Gujarat, India! All communities and abilities welcome, and no experience necessary. We'll have samples of flavored rice, in case you need a carbo boost, as well!

Our event is hosted by Father Gawain, priest-in-charge at the beautiful Holy Trinity Church. Uptown choreographer Parijat Desai offers instruction in garba (with claps) and dandiya raas (with sticks), and opportunities for play. Enjoy the follow-along garba video below.

We have limited dandiya (sticks): RSVP so we know how many to bring, and if you have your own, bring 'em! Much appreciated

This event will be in person and live-streamed. Livestream link provided after you RSVP.

‘Tis the season to dance garba, circle dance from Gujarat, India—beloved by Gujaratis of all faiths and communities. Join us, Hindus4Zohran, at our offering of Dance In The Round, a welcoming space for all to dance!

During Navratri season, people of all ages dance together in circle—not just in India, but across the diaspora—including Uganda where many Gujaratis have migrated.

We offer this circle-dance experience, facilitated by choreographer Parijat Desai, to share a piece of our Hindu heritage, and to express our support for an inclusive vision for NYC!
