Bhangra is a type of traditional folk dance of Punjab. In a typical performance, several dancers execute vigorous kicks, leaps, and bends of the body—often with upraised, thrusting arm or shoulder movements—to the accompaniment of short songs called boliyan and, most significantly, to the beat of a dhol. An energetic Punjabi dance, bhangra originated with Punjabi farmers as a cultural and communal celebration; its modern-day evolution has allowed bhangra to retain its traditional Punjabi roots, while broadening its reach to include integration into popular music and DJing, group-based competitions, and even exercise and dance programs in schools and studios.
At Bhangra Australia, our aim is to ensure that the future generation of Punjabi community and broader community at large has a platform where they can learn and perform this beautiful traditional dance form. We work along with many other Bhangra teams, academies, teachers and community organisations to help prosper Bhangra scene in Australia.
After 5 years of hiatus, we are bringing back the immortal soul of Punjab, the dance of warriors, the dance to celebrate prosperity, Bhangra to Melbourne community!
Australian Bhangra Competition is one of its kind event that will celebrate our cultural roots and will incorporate the modern Bhangra scene as the diaspora community progresses into future realms.
It will feature Eleet and grassroots teams in juniors and seniors with both live and music categories.
We are now taking expression of interest (EOI) from the teams and academics from AUS/NZ. Selected teams will then receive registration form along with terms and rules of the competition. Please email your EOI to [email protected].
Can’t wait to Bhangra with y’all fam ❤️
