In celebration of Saung Budaya’s 15 Year Anniversary, we are delighted to present to you our Master Artist Dance Series!
In these 2-day workshops, we begin the first day with a lecture understanding the origins and explore the history of some of Indonesia’s most prominent dance forms. We chat with incredible Master Artists (our special guest every month) who will give insight on the journey of these dances, the story behind the costumes and where these dances are today.
On the second day, we get physical and work with Saung Budaya Founder, Amalia Suryani, for a dance workshop in which we learn the movements of the dance we learned about the previous day.
