MIT's South Asian Fusion Dance Team


"The absolute pinnacle of the show was MIT Chamak, a troupe that skillfully managed to intertwine traditional Indian and modern dancing. The dance somehow took the traditional Indian dance form, Bharat Natyam, and brought to it a drum and bass beat, slinky black tops, and a little bit of hand-flapping that coordinated well with lighting effects. For those both familiar and unfamiliar with Indian dance, there was something ripe and electrifying about their well-choreographed dance that made it the best performance of the evening, technically and aesthetically..."
