Bhangra is a Punjabi folk dance style originating from Punjab, India that now we have brought to Dalhousie! This is the first time ever that Dalhousie has this society! We currently do performances as well as looking into doing more classes to teach more people this dance form. You don't have to be a Punjabi to join nor have any experience to be a part of Dal Bhangra. We are a tight knit society, almost like a family and have practices often. Just reach out to us via Instagram or through our email and we would love to have you part of our family!
