The lights were on and the bass was booming. This was not a football game and not a disco. It was another fun, family event for the moms and dads of Foster City. Once a month, we invite local families and friends to get together for a themed evening of family, fitness, food and fun. These are my four most favorite things.
This month was a Bollywood themed event with food provided by Saffron a fantastic Indian food restaurant. Our families also provide a potluck selection.
First was an awesome cardio-fitness workout where Moms and Dads can release frustration and calories along to a timed-music track.

Then the real fun started with Sangita a local instructor from the Indian Culture Center. As always she was fun and people really enjoyed getting their Bollywood on, everyone likes to play the part of a Bollywood dance star, including me.
After the sweating and dancing was done, the families mingled, trading stories about their week and children’s activities. Community builds and is built through bonding, fitness, and conversation. Events create community and community creates quality of life. Family Matters.
