The Group :: Gabhru Panjab De

Gabhru Panjab De (youth of the Panjab) was conceived in April 1988. The group is based in Sandwell, West Midlands (the Heart of England). After setting up, the group attracted more and more members and today has a strong team of Dancers, Singers and Dhol players.

Wedding’s, birthday parties, festivals, processions, charitable and social events, community shows and on television are but a few events where the ‘Gabhru’s’ have dominated the entertainment programme. This unique dance has the western public completely spellbound, and no event is complete without the inclusion of Bhangra.

Dancing has been regarded as a social and cultural activity throughout the world. Gabhru Panjab De aim to set up a Dance studio in the heart of the Midlands where structured workshops can be organised, which in return will establish a solid base for future generations and furthermore gain recognition for Bhangra, as much as possible.

The vigour, vitality, speed and the synchronisation in which the movements are performed make ‘Bhangra’ a highly enjoyable spectacular dance to watch. No other dance can come anywhere near Bhangra in sheer force and tempo. It is a dance of stamina and the Gabhru’s always take special pride in performing it.
