Bhangra Society: Social Secretary

As a fresher joining the Bhangra Society, with my love of bhangra, by attending weekly classes, not only was it refreshing for me to be welcomed by a society in where there are others like me who love dance, but it has been a great experience to make friends. What I admire about this society is that there is a sense of community which encourages others of all abilities and backgrounds to learn Bhangra.

This is the atmosphere I wish to create as Social Secretary, I plan to organize more events to invite others, to encourage them to learn about Bhangra. Being part of the society has been so fun, yet I feel that there is room for more social events as it seems that this society could attract so many more people who are interested in dance, fitness and the Bhangra culture. I aim to organize social events such as Bhangra club nights, restaurant socials, game nights and much more. 

As a business-owner in the wedding industry, I have developed impeccable communication skills and enjoy networking with other small businesses within the industry. In the Asian wedding industry, there is constant demand for dancers; I think this would be a perfect opportunity to offer performance opportunities to those whom may be interested. I am also an events coordinator for an annual fundraising event in my local area which entails immense planning and organisation. Therefore, I believe that with the experience and skills that I have obtained, I would be a great Social Secretary.

Being part of the Bhangra society committee will give me the opportunity to employ new ideas and suggestions to further improve our society. This means that I will be heavily involved with organizing a great mix of events, socials and collaborations, other than weekly Bhangra classes. This can involve game nights, club nights and many more, which will provide something that everyone can enjoy and get involved with!

I was given the opportunity to be part of the Bhangra society team this year, where I was able to build on my bhangra skills as well as forming relationships with team members. This was an amazing experience to be a part of and I hope to help provide this same experience, if not better, to other students in the future!

Make sure to vote for me as your social secretary to see the big things that we have planned in the coming year and to have a great time!

I attended many of the classes last year and honestly had such a good time getting to know people. I think people underestimate what a great way Bhangra is to form new connections. This is why I want to run for social secretary and help to organise some really great events to bring the club closer together. I have a few ideas as to potential events we could run and how we could even make the weekly classes quite unique. I know a dance form can also be very intimidating to join so I would love to plan things to help others join the club and give it a try
