BollyBurn

I used to HATE all forms of exercise — any and all of it. I accidentally stumbled onto BollyBurn when I joined Bay Club SF in an effort to live a more healthy lifestyle. It was the best accident to ever happen to me.
Despite not knowing much about Bollywood or ever listening to Bollywood music, the music completely enchanted me. I looked forward to class every.single.week despite my past hatred for any exercise. Excited by my new found love, I tried other Bollywood classes while traveling — BollyX in Boston and Doonya in LA — both of these brands use fake instrumental Bollywood music. It just isn’t the same (to put it nicely). BollyBurn’s use of real Bollywood music AND Satish’s charisma and high energy is a formula that can not be beat!

BollyBurn by Satish is one of the very few Bollywood classes out there that actually uses real BOLLYwood music. instead of having a class centered all around music styles like «bhangra» which aren’t even considered Bollywood, BollyBurn brings the authenticity back to real Bollywood aerobic classes. Satish’s choice of music is definitely on point and brings justice to his amazingly well coordinated class! I HIGHLY recommend everyone to give it a shot because it doesn’t get any better than this!

Bollywood with Satish is amazing. Not only is a great workout it is a lot of fun. The dance moves are creative and easy for everyone to learn. Satish has a wonderful presence and lights up the room and makes you want to move your body. I recommend this class for all levels.

Three years ago I was going through a tough patch in life.
My Mom was sick and I had to take FMLA. The situation at home and at work was stressful.
I took to gym classes to help ease the pain.
I was never exposed to dance and music before and do not know there is a thing called the beat.
My first gym class dance teacher pretended she did not see me and was not at all encouraging.
Then I got into Satish’s class by accident.
I was late and ran right up to the front. I was out of sync and out of beat but he still flashed me the warmest smile.
Never never did I sense disapproval.
Somehow, by looking at Satish’s at times powerful, graceful, sexy and zen like moves through the next few months, I heard the beat for the first time!
I was no long tone deaf! It was like I could speak a new language! The language of music and dance.
I was following his steps, and the timing was right. I was no longer going in the opposite direction! (though Satish does not mind if you do).
He taught me the language of music! I felt like I could fly and glide!!!
The moves alternate amongst happy, sexy, and meditative. They have so much positive energy!
I feel a lot stronger mind and body wise as a result of Bollyburn and would recommend everyone to experience it.
His classes also build a sense of community. How could you not be friends with another happy groovy dancer?
I was a chubby and clumsy tone deaf kid and never imagined my adult life to be so deliciously filled with music and friends
Thank You Satish! In health and Cheers to you!!!

«Satish takes cardio aerobics to another level with his Bollyburn class. The level of energy in the class is OFF THE CHARTS, and the music is PHE-​NO-​ME-​NAL!!!
I joined the Bay Club last November to supplement my training for my ½ marathon in Dec and came across the Bollyburn class when I heard the music. The rest is history.
* The workout not only utilizes your full body, but additionally, any worries or stress melts away with the dance.
* My recent doctor visit has also uncovered, now, after 4 months of Satish’s Bollyburn class, along with a proper diet, that my cholesterol levels have dropped significantly, he has literally saved my life!
* I have met the most amazing group of people, that share a passion for fun, fitness, and can work up a sweat as well.
Overall, I know Satish is dedicated to his students with the variety in the workout he brings weekly, from the incorporation of barbell equipment, aerobics, to his awesome Bollywood dance.
I am 100% a fan of Bollyburn and Satish, I have my health and wellness to prove it!»
