DIYA SEN

Founder & JhoomGuru

Diya was born in India and has lived and worked in Hong Kong, Boston, New York City and now in Montreal. Diya started her classical Indian dance journey in Bharatnatyum and Kathak from the age of three and represented multiple cultural, school and university competitive dance groups. Growing up, Bollywood was Diya's lifeline. She considers Madhuri Dixit her dance God and till date is trying to master her timeless choreographies. Through years of dancing, Diya became passionate about bringing Bollywood dance into a form of a dance-fitness program where one experiences the joy and celebration of Indian culture with its high energy moves that give a complete body workout. Jhoomlay was born from pure passion and soon became a strong community and her full time profession!

"Jhoomlay means 'swing to the beat' in Hindi and it is literally the vibe as soon as you walk in the studio. It's not just another workout program but a way of experiencing fitness through the power of dance. This incredible community of Jhoomers and JhoomGurus have become a focal point of my life from which I obtain my source of inspiration, happiness, strength and positivity - through my good and not so good days. I always leave the room feeling unstoppable!"

Favorite Jhoom routine Diya SLAYS: "It's SO hard to choose but the one that has created endless memories is Gallan Goodiyaan!"

JENNIFER LACOMBE WONG

JhoomGuru

Jenn is a global citizen with French, Singaporean and Malaysian heritage and has grown up across many countries. For over a decade now, Jenn has been proudly calling Montreal her home. Jenn's love for Bollywood dance grew as she watched Hindi movies in Malaysia and Singapore, where they are very popular. To take her passion for dance to the next level, Jenn took Bharatnatyum and Bhangra classes and danced her way to Jhoomlay! The rest is history.

"Jhoomers are my weekly source of mental therapy. Their smiles are so uplifting that they give me the strength to take on anything! I love seeing our Jhoomers have a blast while breaking a sweat and feeling good about themselves. I also love the amazing community of JhoomGurus. They inspire me to always thrive towards becoming the best version of myself. I’ve grown so much and on so many levels since the JhoomGurus and Jhoomers came into my life... and for that I am forever grateful."

Favorite Jhoom routine Jenn SLAYS: "An obvious one is Malhari but there’s also Bad Girl and Balam Pichkari :)"

SABEENA SHAIKH

JhoomGuru

Sabeena is a PhD student from Houston, Texas at McGill University. She studies Urdu poetry and has a deep love for Bollywood movies and cooking food from all around the world. Sabeena grew up dancing to Bollywood music before she could walk or talk properly. She has been the designated choreographer at all her friends' and family's weddings since she was little. Naturally, the music runs deep in her bones and although she has no formal dance training, she danced in a competitive Bollywood dance team during her university days.

"My favorite thing about Jhoomlay is that it exudes pure joy. If I'm feeling stressed or anxious, I know that I can walk into a Jhoomlay class and leave feeling completely renewed. It is a healthy commitment to my body but also to my soul. Nothing makes me happier than dancing and it is a real treat to be able to share that love and light with my Jhoomers on a weekly basis."

Favorite Jhoom routine Sabeena SLAYS: "Boli Panieh. I used to be afraid of this routine because it is so intense, but it has quickly become one of my favorites. I feel powerful every time I complete it and can't wait to do it with you!"
