#014 – Bhangra Dancing in the Yukon with Gurdeep Pandher

Gurdeep Pandher arrived in Whitehorse with a burning desire to share the joyous and unique style of Bhangra dance to Yukoners in every town and remote community throughout the territory. When his first 2016 Canada Day Bhangra dance video went viral overnight on the Internet, he quickly realized that through his social media presence, he could bring the joy of Bhangra dance to not only Yukoners, but to millions of people around the world.

While conducting his dance classes, Gurdeep films the uniqueness and character of each participant and incorporates their smiles, positive energy, and incredible natural settings in each of his production. His future plans to have a cross Canada “Happiness Tour” in 2021 will certainly be a welcomed celebration of Bhangra dance, as he takes his show on the road from the left to the right coast. Stay tuned for future interviews with Gurdeep, as we follow him on his next great journey spreading the joy and celebration of this unique style of dance.
