From people who know what they're looking at

Right from the song choices to the moves — lots of beginner friendly stuff, but also challenging stuff, which I'm always looking for as a trained dancer.

Shaila B. Trained dancer YouTube · 2026

I am a Bollywood fitness instructor in California. I stumbled upon your channel a few days ago and I have watched all your videos already. I was looking for simple and repeatable steps for my students, on trendy popular songs — and that's exactly what you are doing.

Raj Bollywood fitness instructor, California YouTube · 2025

I exercise every day with your videos. It saves my hands and upper body after long hours of piano playing — they are my daily therapy. You have such imagination to come up with an endless variety of motions that relieve muscle tension.

It doesn't feel like a workout

The thing people say most often, almost word for word.

It's the dance workout that felt like dancing, not exercising. Today I exercised after so long — exhausted and sweaty right now, but I didn't want to quit. I enjoyed a lot.

Tanvee YouTube · 2023

What an amazing workout. Truly enjoyed. Did not feel like a workout — felt like a party.

Ria S. YouTube · 2025

I've been in such a workout rut and was browsing for something different and stumbled on this video. This was the MOST FUN I've had working out in a very long time. I rarely describe a workout as a joyful experience, but this was so fun.

Crystal K. YouTube · 2025

Brilliant workout! So much fun I don't even realise I'm working out.

Claire S. YouTube · 2025

Loving the workouts! It's so fun, I honestly don't feel like it's a workout!

Kimmi J. YouTube · 2025

I just feel like I am in a party and don't even realise that I am doing a workout.

Deepika G. YouTube · 2024

I just realised I don't feel like this is a workout — I'm really enjoying it as if I were dancing at a sangeet.

Trish R. YouTube · 2025

Absolutely loved dancing to this one — what a fun workout session! Didn't even realise how quickly time went.

Love my dance classes with Subarna. The most fun way to exercise!

Claire S. In-person class, London · 2023

It actually works

Sweat, stamina and the scales — from people who doubted that dancing counts.

Guys, don't be fooled by the preview — I was sweating by the first 15 minutes. Thank you so much for this workout, this was really fun!

Manuela M. YouTube · 2025

I don't know what it is about your videos but I can keep going forever! I've followed so many dance workout videos but yours burn the maximum calories while having MAXIMUM FUN. I've lost 2 kgs in 1 week.

Vanessa F. YouTube · 2024

I'm someone who cannot follow the same video every day, I get bored easily — but you upload almost every second week. I have already lost 16 kgs and now I'm just maintaining my weight and enjoying my workout.

Aarti R. YouTube · 2025

This dance literally brought me sweat in just 15 minutes in this month of winters, that even my cardio couldn't. Just loved it.

Manju S. YouTube · 2024

Most energetic video compared to all YouTube channels. Above excellence. Sweating like anything in 20 minutes.

Suman G. YouTube · 2025

Right from the song choices to the moves — lots of beginner friendly stuff, but also challenging stuff, which I'm always looking for as a trained dancer.

Shaila B. Trained dancer YouTube · 2026

Started my postpartum fitness journey at 2 months postpartum and I am hooked. Everything from choreo to playlist to background is on point. It gets you up even on days with no motivation.

Rishibha S. YouTube · 2025

Even I managed to do most of it, which is not like me. That was simple and effective, Subarna.

Nisha K. YouTube · 2023

Love that you can make these workouts as low or high intensity as you wish.

Love this — a workout without too much jumping. I'll look for more.

Song selection is superb, energetic, and easy steps added for all age groups.

Looking forward to joining Subarna. Loved the trial class — bolly-fantastic, fun-filled class.

I keep going back

The hard part of fitness is showing up again. This is what brings people back.

You are awesome. Even a lazy person like me is motivated enough to dance with you.

Sonamika R. YouTube · 2025

Finally found a workout which motivates me to move my body despite having a long day.

A YouTube subscriber YouTube · 2024

I don't know why, when your new video came up, I felt the same excitement as I would if a new movie got released.

Trish R. YouTube · 2025

After more than a year of paying gym fees and getting injured regularly during workouts, finally I am happy to dance every day with Subarna videos.

MangoResearcher YouTube · 2025

Literally the only YouTube channel I wait for to post videos. Must say, it's worth it.

Kanak C. YouTube · 2025

Earlier I used to give up after 10 minutes, but your motivation made me complete the full workout. Thank you!

Sophia YouTube · 2025

I dance on your videos 4 days a week. Love the music and your dance moves. Lots of love from Dallas.

I have been using your videos for my daily workouts for the last 2 months. I have been enjoying them — my moves have improved mentally and physically.

Dancing with Subarna has changed my idea of weekend fun. I always look forward to dancing for exercise with friends while having fun. For those who are thinking about it — just join the fun, you will love it too.

Real Bollywood & Zumba

Real Bollywood choreography and Zumba — not generic aerobics or jumping jacks.

I am a Bollywood fitness instructor in California. I stumbled upon your channel a few days ago and I have watched all your videos already. I was looking for simple and repeatable steps for my students, on trendy popular songs — and that's exactly what you are doing.

Raj Bollywood fitness instructor, California YouTube · 2025

I follow multiple Indian fitness dance instructors on YouTube and most of them are quite good, but your sessions by far have the best choreography. It doesn't feel like a workout at all, just a very fun dance session.

Amritorupa YouTube · 2024

I love all your vids — the music, choreo, your energy, and your smile. It's legit Bollywood moves, NOT zumba. Plus I lost heaps of weight too. Love, from the Philippines.

Marga A. YouTube · 2024

Oh my god, I have been searching for this type of workout with Bollywood songs for so many days.

A YouTube subscriber YouTube · 2023

I got a break from normal zumba steps. I'm glad I am learning Bollywood dance as well, along with moving my body. It's fun.

A YouTube subscriber YouTube · 2024

I mostly can't get through these at-home zumba workouts, mainly because of the music and dull choreography — but this one is definitely not that!

Vedika P. YouTube · 2025

Excellent collection of songs — best for avoiding song fatigue during a workout. Kudos to the steps.

Gayathry R. YouTube · 2024

Kudos for the phenomenal content and the creativity in packaging Indian sensibilities with western style. I do hope your work gets the recognition it truly deserves.

Ramraj P. YouTube · 2025

More than fitness

Joy, calm and headspace — the part most fitness pages leave out.

I exercise every day with your videos. It saves my hands and upper body after long hours of piano playing — they are my daily therapy. You have such imagination to come up with an endless variety of motions that relieve muscle tension.

Olga T. Professional pianist YouTube · 2025

As a professional musician, I truly appreciate how well your choreography complements the music. I love the humour, the attention to detail, and the imagination.

Olga T. Professional pianist YouTube · 2025

With everything going on in the world right now, joy matters more than ever. Your workouts bring a nice dose of happiness, and for 45 minutes I just forget about all of it.

Crystal K. YouTube · 2026

Life changing! Your workout videos make my day, literally. Thanks for creating content that makes me happy and fit.

Tamanna P. YouTube · 2026

Powerful, graceful, energetic. The music was great. But the best is your smile — it gives happiness to the session. Thank you very much, from Mexico.

Imelda R. YouTube · 2025

It was the perfect stress buster I was looking for. Lovely that it has a good remix of peppy Bollywood songs as well.

Shweta P. YouTube · 2026

You have clearly made a difference to my workout happiness quotient!

Shlok D. YouTube · 2025

At first, with the preview, I was about to skip — but seriously, your video is so motivational, and your smile keeps everyone stuck. I was lazy but your video made me do the whole session.

Nishma J. YouTube · 2025

Subarna is full of energy, enthusiasm and elegance!
