Irish Bhangra

 


A group of Bhangra dancers performed a Bhangra dance with an Irish twist on St Patricks day to celebrate their two cultures.

Gurpreet Singh, Charnjit Singh and Kanwar Singh said their goal is to "spread this unique dance culture to a wider audience and give a platform to their growing community in Ireland, for our kids to stay connected to their roots."

You can see the dance in the link above.
