The socialising and mingling nature of Garba and Raas dances are of great worth and value and their benefits cannot be overemphasised. Within a short time of attending the event, people will start to connect with some and then assimilate and blend with many others pleasantly and easily. By the end of a Garba and Raas evening people  will have connected with many others. If the event has been well organised, they will have clicked sticks and engaged with everyone who takes their place on the whirling dancing circles . There is rarely any other dance form that can lead one into making some connection or contact so quickly with most everyone present. 

Garba and Raas dances are relatively easy to do. After just a short while, within 15 minutes or less, the basic steps can be easily picked up to allow you to get into the rhythm and the flow.  Enough can be learned  in  a short space of time to make sure that your dancing is not awkward or embarrassing, either to yourself or to others.
