Turban Tying
At Khalsa Panth Academy, our Turban Tying Class is not just about how to tie a turban—it’s about understanding why we wear it. The Dastaar is a gift from our Gurus, a sign of dignity, strength, and identity. This class is designed to help anyone—child, youth, or adult—learn to wear it with pride, purpose, and proper technique.

- Tips to wear it daily at school, work, or during sports
- Care and maintenance tips – washing, folding, starching (if needed)
- Building confidence to wear it proudly in public
