Indonesia has many traditional dances, every ethnic group has more than two kinds of dances. Those dances tell the audience about a ballad or a story according to the kind or the place of the ethnic group. The Balinese dances, for example, “Legong” tells about the love story of the Lasem king, and “Kecak” tells about the Hanoman’s and Sugriwo’s Monkey troops. UN ‘06 2

Most of audiences usually enjoy for the beauty, the costume and the education of the dancer only. They do not care the message of the dance. Every action of the dancer, however, expresses a guidance, it guides us how to do the best attitude and behavior in our lives. We sometimes neglect it for instance, part action of Javanese dance. Before the dancer moves or steps her foot, she makes her hand around in front of her body. She moves her hand to the left or right side UN ‘06 3

then turn it through in front of her head down to chest to the first position. These action expresses – before someone does something, it’s better to consider. Throw away something bad and take the best one. Our own traditional dance has a deep philosophy. It shows the national identity, Indonesia. We should attempt to keep it if we do not want to lose it.
