A 5-day workshop on Dandiya and Garba was organized by The Bhawanipur Education Society College at the 6th floor auditorium from 23rd September to 27th September, 2014. This workshop was executed under the guidance of Mr. Dharmesh Bhimani, a trained dancer and an ex-student of the college, from Payal Dance Academy from 10 AM to 12 Noon each day, which was thoroughly enjoyed and loved by all the participants. The workshop saw incredible level of participation and enthusiasm from all the students. The participants danced to some traditional Dandiya and Garba songs.
