The Dance from bali

Tari Pendet is a traditional Balinese dance that originated in the village of Panglipuran, Bali, Indonesia. It is usually performed by young girls as a welcoming dance for visitors. The dance involves swaying movements of the upper body combined with elegant hand gestures and delicate footwork. Dancers carry a small offering in their hands, usually in the form of a flower or a small dish of rice. The dance is accompanied by a gamelan orchestra, a traditional ensemble of percussive instruments.Show more
