“My daughter started learning at Royal Academy last year. She was shy and had no confidence but now she is not shy anymore and she has much more confidence all because of Hardeep Singh Sahota.”

Jaspreet S., Surrey

“My kids joined the Royal Academy of Bhangra in 2014 and their progress has left me astonished. It’s only been 3 years and one of them is already in a competition team… This academy really knows how to keep that cultural passion alive in our kids. Thank You.”

Binder S., Vancouver

Borderless is a celebration of pre-partition Punjab.
Before invisible lines laid down by the British divided Punjabi’s, we lived together, we laughed together,
we cried together and were a part of each others story. Our daily lives, our daily rituals, our traditions and our dreams were rooted in the same soil. Our love stories carried the same sweetness, our struggles shed the same tears, our songs told the same stories and our bodies moved to the same beats.Seventy years after partition and oceans away, Punjabi’s in the Diaspora still have Punjab imprinted on our souls. We experience the pull of the land, feel the whispers of breeze from the fields and hear gentle the laughter of waves on the banks of the rivers. What we forget is that we share the same sweet memories with our neighbours. The Punjabi Spirit doesn’t recognize state lines that divide, it still dances to the same dhol and tumbhi on both sides of the border. Through the beauty of Waris Shah’s Heer and Bulleh Shah’s poetry, the movements of Jhoomar and Jugni, and the sound of the dhol, tumbhi and bugchu; we honour the Spirit and the brotherhood of our forefathers by exploring our identity, our culture and our history pre-partition. Artistically curated by Vijay Yamla, grandson of legendary Ustaad Lal Chand Yamla Jatt and Hardeep Singh Sahota of Royal Academy of Bhangra, and MC’d by Mo Dhaliwal. In a time that there is so much division and discrimination, so much hate and mistrust; Folk Lok live: Brotherhood will spread the message of love and unity. We will come together and share our stories and let that imprint on our Soul shine and our Spirit dance together.

The Positive Parenting Workshops have been running very successfully!! Thanks to everyone that has been participating and supporting! In our first week, Jag Khosa emphasized the importance of quality time with our children: family dinners, outings, watching movies or playing games. He also talked about behaviours and influences that we need to be aware of and equipped us with tools to protect our children from getting involved in gangs and drugs.
The next 2 workshops were covered by Dal Badesha and Devinder Dhaliwal. Parents were split up and we talked about parenting styles, family pressures and systems and healthy relationships.
This week we will continue talking about different home issues, challenges parents face in society, communication within the family and with our kids.
Our workshops have given parents a safe space to come and learn, ask questions and share their own experiences. We encourage all parents to participate and help create a happier future for their kids.
