PJI held an Open Space meeting yesterday to learn Bhangra dancing from our facilitator and expert Mr. Tejpal Dhillon!
Around 30 members packed the cafe to learn some new steps and learn about Punjab from Tej and Maneesha. Tej is a Bhangra competitor who was brought up in the U.S. but has family roots in Punjab. He taught us all a number of Bhangra moves, told us about the origins of the dance style, and led us in dancing to his personal Bhangra tracks.
After the Bhangra, we sat together and learned a little about the state of Punjab from Tej and Maneesha. We also discussed upcoming PJI events and awarded certificates to all of those who donated blood as part of last month's "Save Life By a Drop" blood donation camp.
Thanks to Tej and everyone who came to make the event such a success. And let us know what you thought about the Bhangra!
