For the past nine years, the Indian Sub-Continental Club (ISC) at the University of California, Irvine has hosted Garba With Attitude (GWA), a national Garba/Raas (Indian folk dance) competition, attracting student formed teams, audience members of various ages, and organizations from across the nation. GWA has grown to become America's premier Garba/Raas competition and is the only competition of its kind on the West Coast. In its ninth year, its focus not only lies in exhibiting the values and expressions of this form of dance, but also in promoting cultural awareness.

In the past nine years, Garba With Attitude has grown from five California Universities to over 200 participants from 10 Universities from across the United States. The show has had a record five year sell out point with over 1,000 audience members which include students, representatives from various organizations, family members of participants, show organizers, and garba enthusiasts.
