Deskripsi

In Bali dance is not only considered to be an art form but also as a way to appreciate God's blessings and kindness. Dances are performed before religious ceremonies or rituals that take place in temples, to welcome the deities and ancestors that come down to the earth whenever the ceremonies are carried out and also to show gratitude to the gods for their blessings. Even though a ceremony starts with dances, before the dances start, the dancers and the musicians follow a ritual in which they wish for a blessing from God to charm their performance. They are praying for Taksu-a combination of perfect technique they get by serious study and practice plus the charisma they have been lucky enough to been given. It is said that dancers with Taksu can hypnotize and stun the audience when they start swaying their body, whatever their age. Balinese traditional dance has gone international because people from all over the world who have visited the island have been captivated by the dancers' wide round eyes, amazed by the beautiful dance routines performed, and enthralled by the sparkling authentic outfits and ornaments worn by the dancers. But possibly the most important thing that helps people to enjoy Balinese traditional dances is to know the story told by the dance routine. Every dance in Bali, be it Legong, Kecak, Calon Arang or any other, carries a story or religious and social message about the value of life or balance of good and bad, aiming to educate the audience.
