Holy moly this was sick!! So many creative twists and such an overall well crafted set. Your energy was beastly. I couldn't take my eyes off the video! I loved the opening pose --> single chaffa jumps. So simple yet so sick and it really set the tone for the rest of the performance. Shykka...

Friendly suggestion and this goes for all comps: It is helpful if you clearly state whether travel will be reimbursed, if accommodations will be provided, etc.

Wow that was phenomenal! Can't wait to see a front view

I think the #1 thing you can do at this very moment is instill a sense of pride in your team for taking the time to practice the fundamentals and learn as much as they can about Bhangra. Sometimes we focus too much on what other teams are doing and external rewards (like trophies). You have to...

Good point. Working on it. Sent you a PM. More soon :)

Hahaha fun thread idea... 10 teams for me... :) Barua will definitely win, though!

What were the placings?

Hi Gurnoor, Seems like there are 3 types of team names these days: City/Place Names (i.e. Alamo City Bhangra), Punjabi Names (i.e. Sonay Gabroo Punjab De), and English Names (i.e. Ministry of Bhangra). Some are also acronyms. Have you thought about which type you like? That'll help you...

MOB won 1st Place at this competition and was probably the most humble team that walked into the post-comp feedback room. They're eager to improve so they can compete at even bigger competitions around the world (Literally--comps around the world :o Bhangra has to come this, how awesome is...

I didn't see this posted so thought I'd share- 1st - Bulldog Bhangra (Fresno, CA) 2nd - Norcal Naujawan (Bay Area, CA) 2nd [Tie] - Cal Bhangra (Berkeley, CA) (There was no 3rd place prize) Congrats to all the teams! There were some great performances in addition to the winners :)

Teams, I just sent all my score sheets and notes out to you at the email addresses provided by the committee. If you didn't receive yours feel free to shoot me an email: mariam.afzal00@gmail.com Thanks!

What are the Top 5 judging-related questions you always ask, or hear being asked, before a competition? I'm thinking about the pre-competition captain's meeting with judges, but these could be questions asked at any time. My goal with this is to help get these FAQs answered before they're even...

Hi! I'm trying to make a playlist of slow paced songs, still at a bhangra tempo, that are catchy and good for newbies to practice on. Suggestions?

Thanks for this post!

Done and good luck!

The color names.... LOL

There are some great tips and ideas here. I'm currently working on a resource packet for competitions, mainly centered around judging practices, tentatively titled "Bhangra Judging Best Practices for Competition Organizers". Content will include advice on running useful and efficient captains'...

Just started looking at Logic! It was suggested by others as well. Thanks for the input, everyone

Good question! There is not one that I know of. Swi had started a website, BhangraJudging.com, but I think it's outdated now. I'm working on a project right now that will help fill this void :)
