About This Project

In Balinese, Taksu refers to the extraordinary charisma and ability possessed by certain individuals in their chosen pursuits or professions. Over the past thirteen weeks, the students of SE2224: Unmasked! An Introduction to Traditional Dance in Southeast Asia have embodied the essence of Taksu in their foray into the world of classical Balinese dance. The concert represents a culmination of their efforts. The students are joined by their dance teachers from Bali as well as by members of Eka Suwsara Santhi, Singapore’s only Balinese dance group.
