What is Raas?

A festive dance originating in Gujarat, India, Raas is an energetic dance performed with sticks, called Dandiyas. Easy to learn (we’ll teach you) and intoxicating.

Meet new people as you change partners every few seconds. Move to amazing beats. Add your own style. You’ll be left breathless and energized… and if you’re not the dancing type, not to worry – simply watching others get into the music is mesmerizing

An epic fundraiser for three Global Giving Naan-Profits by three Americans tuktuking 2000 miles through Nepal and India! | Featuring: DJ Krshong aka Part Time Lover
Space: Zappa Room

Two friends and I are participating in a race called the Rickshaw Run in January 2010. We basically drive an auto-rickshaw from Nepal to the southern tip of India (over 2000 miles) in the name of adventure and charity. We hit the organizers’ minimum fundraising requirement (1000 GBP) in less than two days, so we’ve set our sights on a much higher goal – $10k by the end of the year for three Global Giving projects: http://www.globalgiving.com/dy/fundraiser/prevfund/gg.html?regid=2146&RF=widget_fundraiser_large2146
