Lezim : is a style of exercise originated in Maharashtra - I learned it at a highschooler at Udyogamandal School under Charlie Sir, our PT instructor extraordinaire. 

It has been in my mind to do it here ever since. 

The instrument is hard to come by and people like to keep the dance simple to stay authentic to its exercise mode. 

I like a little more spice.. as much as my participants can muster up.

So this year, I bought it in India (Amazon online, no less) , brought it to US and voila, I am able to enjoy and after of Lezims , teach it, record it and then the editing.. for Holi at Mission. 

thanks to all participants, who will become friends, if not already !!!!!

Nostalgia2022

An exercise that was mandatory

An instructor who was passionate

A student with lots of energy, dance and rhythm

 

A good combination

A good outlet

A good attachment was formed

 

So many years she tried

Four decades no less

To relive that time of her life

 

But

The opportunity never came

The equipment never available

The people just not willing

 

She persevered, until one day

A time to get the equipment

A time to set up the opportunity

A few enthusiasts and adventurers

A time, an afternoon for it to happen!

 

It was all she remembered

It was all she hoped for

It was all she wanted it to be

 

A energetic, expression with step and rhythm!

A combination of lezim and dance, simple and fun!

Didn’t know it would be this long lasting

Thanks to a PT instructor – oh so long ago!
