I come from a punjabi family and our folk dance is bhangra. So I decided to learn bhangra which helped me not just learn a new dance form but also explore and learn more about my culture. I joined Downtown Bhangra, Surat&#8217;s well known and famous Bhangra Studio. I went to their classes for 3 months and learnt every single step of Bhangra. I also learnt how these steps were developed and which steps to perform according to the beats and songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LO:1 Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Knowing where I come from, I saw that I already knew a bit about Bhangra from watching my family dance at parties and weddings when I was younger. Because I&#8217;m really into Punjabi culture and love Punjabi songs, I felt a strong connection and was super committed to learning Bhangra. This experience helped me realize that knowing about my own culture is something I&#8217;m good at, and by putting in the effort to learn the dance, I showed that I&#8217;m serious about getting better at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LO2: Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I encountered initial difficulties when I began learning Bhangra, primarily due to lower stamina levels. Given that Bhangra demands significant energy and enthusiasm, this posed a challenge. Over time, I progressively improved my stamina. Despite facing ongoing challenges in executing certain dance steps due to physical limitations, I persevered. Overcoming these obstacles became an integral part of my journey, demonstrating my commitment to developing new skills in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LO3: Initiate and plan a CAS experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>I started by looking for good dance schools and ended up joining Downtown Bhangra in Surat, which is famous for teaching Bhangra really well. To plan my CAS experience, I made a schedule for regular classes spanning three months, making sure I could fully grasp the details of Bhangra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LO4: Show commitment to and perseverance in the CAS experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During my Bhangra learning journey, I showed strong determination and dedication. Even though I had some challenges like low stamina and difficulty with certain dance steps because of my physical limitations, I didn&#8217;t give up. I regularly went to classes, practiced a lot, and asked for help to get through these challenges. My commitment not only showed how much I wanted to master Bhangra but also demonstrated my ability to bounce back from tough situations. This experience had a big positive effect on me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"569\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1253-1-1024x569.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9087\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1253-1-1024x569.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1253-1-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1253-1-768x427.jpg 768w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1253-1.jpg 1290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1252-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9085\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1252-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1252-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1252-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1252-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_1252-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I learnt a new dance form &#8220;Bhangra&#8221;.
