Dance lessons

Okay, so this is afterwards, on the roof.
The venue is a dance school, within a temple which dates from 1844. We went for a lesson with the lovely lady pictured. She is a Rajasthan gipsy, and her name is Raki. She is becoming well known as a performer, and is a great teacher. We get another lesson with her on Friday.
Extras are a very old Shiva temple, which is underground. It's small, but really old, in that the tale told is that it predates Pushkar itself. (I actually wonder if it's not a bit of Shiva/Brahma rivalry, as Brahma was supposedly the god that made the lake that Pushkar sits around).
Anyway, it's got a massive lingam stone (remember Indiana Jones and the temple of doom), and some frescoes on the way in.
