Bradford Culture
A group of women learning traditional Indian dance

7 Jun 2025

The Beacon – Bowling Park

Giddha Workshop

Club Ekta

We celebrated culture, movement, and community in a women-only space designed to uplift and energise.

Club Ekta presented a vibrant and empowering Giddha & Boliyan Workshop led by international dancer and choreographer Mandeep Kaur.

This exciting session dived into the rich traditions of Punjabi folk dance and the lyrical art of singing Boliyan – expressions of joy, strength, and sisterhood. Whether you were a beginner or seasoned dancer, this was a chance to learn authentic Giddha moves and dance your heart out in a joyful, women-only space.
