First Dance Fitness Event from VT Seva Detroit along with Happy Feet Dance Academy A Celebration of Movement, Fitness, and Community
On Saturday, September 21, 2024, VT Seva Detroit hosted its very first Dance Fitness event—a groundbreaking initiative that blended fun, fitness, and philanthropy in a unique and impactful way in partnership with Ms. Arpitha Chakkudige of hAppy Feet Dance Academy . This wasn’t just any event; it was a celebration of movement and a demonstration of how our community can come together to support a greater cause. Ms. Arpitha being one of the most popular dance choreographers in Metro Detroit, created an experience that was both exhilarating and meaningful.
The Dance Fitness event was designed to promote physical fitness through engaging dance routines. But beyond just promoting a healthy lifestyle, every step taken during the session was for a noble cause. Each dollar raised from this high-energy event directly supported over seven visually challenged students at Nethra Vidyalaya, an institution dedicated to empowering visually impaired students through education, skills and talent development.
The event saw the enthusiastic participation of 60 individuals from diverse backgrounds. From beginners to seasoned dancers, everyone came together on the dance floor, united by the common goal of supporting a worthy cause. The energy was profound as participants followed the dynamic choreography led by Ms. Arpitha, whose passion and expertise ensured that everyone stayed motivated and enjoyed every moment non-stop for an hour and half. We truly thank and immense gratitude to Ms. Arpitha and Mr. Nishanth from Happy Feet Dance Academy for coming forward to help the amazing cause and many thanks to Arpitha for conducting such an electrifying Dance Fitness event
Events like these wouldn’t be possible without the support of our sponsors. We were fortunate to have the backing of three generous sponsors—Zen Body & Skin Spa, Ms. Hima and VTSeva Detroit anonymous member—whose contributions helped make this event a success. Their support not only covered the logistical needs of the event but also enabled us to maximize the funds raised for Nethra Vidyalaya.
To help market and promote this event, these youth volunteers Khushi, Sai, Advithi, Kaustubh, Siddhani, Shreya, Cordelia, Shraya, Swara, Avni, Shruti, Hiba, Sahasra and Rohan came forward effectively and raised funds to help this event. Some of these youth set minimum goals and worked really great to achieve it. We also appreciate who did try to market & promote the event as well.
Thank you to all our wonderful team members & volunteers who made this event possible. Together, we have danced, sweated, and celebrated for a cause that truly matters.

Some of our electrifying snippets from the event
This debut event marks the beginning of what we hope will be a yearly initiative that combines community engagement with philanthropic endeavors. Our goal is to create more opportunities for people to come together, have fun, and make a difference.
All the proceeds raised will directly contribute to the education and development of visually challenged students at Nethra Vidyalaya. These students, who face unique challenges, are given the opportunity to learn and grow in an environment that fosters their potential. Our support helps provide them with the resources they need to thrive, empowering them to lead independent and fulfilling lives.
We are already looking forward to our next event, and we invite everyone to join us as we continue to innovate, inspire, and make a positive impact!!
