"What does bhangra look like?"

One of my friends is a journalism major at the University of Texas (where Texas Bhangra is from) and her current story is over bhangra (She has been around our team for the last three years - so she knows what we do). One of her interview question is to describe what bhangra looks like to someone who has never seen it before? She wants something that will paint a picture with words. I told her about btf and she wanted me to ask you guys what you thought!

Thanks in advance!

And thanks to raghuveer132 for the help too!

I honestly think that some dance moves look like they're farming techniques. (Like somebody got seriously bored at their "khoo" in India and started dancing to waste time.)
Go ahead, call me crazy, but when the bhangra dancers are holding their 'dangs/khundas,' you can switch it with something that is used on a Punjabi farm. Some moves look like it, and some don't.
