Bhangra means "intoxicated with joy."
Much inspired by the thread Dancing and Gurbani, begun by forum member BhagatSingh ji, I began a leisurely study of the folk dances of the historical northern India including Punjab in India and Pakistan. This interest became something of an obsession over the last few days that I am on Winter holidays. Many discoveries turned up in Internet searches -- including an amazing array of resources related to Bhangra.
This thread exists to share video lessons to learn bhangra, internet radio with bhangra channels, historical information about bhangra and the folk tradition from which it comes, and video and audio that will add to our bhangra experiences.
Hope the thread is going to be worth many hours of enjoyment for you. It will be that for certain for me.
May everyone be happy! Forgive me...
