Training at the Temple in
ShangriLa
Have you ever marveled at the beauty of Balinese dancers? Have
you ever been moved by the grace of their movements and wished you too could move
with such grace?
Here at ShangriLa you can study with a true Balinese Dance Teacher, who leads
the refined dance troupe in Bondalem.
Even just a few dance classes will affect your inner sense of
beauty and grace. Moving with grace takes a little practice but just a few
hours will allow you to move your mind and body in a different rhythm, a
different style and expand your own vocabulary of grace.
Taking classes from a Balinese Dance Teacher will also give you
an opportunity to have close contact and immediate experience of Bali where
Bali is at its best.
