GAMELAN: We invite individuals who have music experience to apply to the music program. Once you are in classes, Music Director Dewa Berata will help create study groups that include both beginners and experienced gamelan players. Balinese gamelan provides a challenging and supportive learning environment for all levels of experience and ability. Those with no previous gamelan experience are encouraged to listen to recordings of gamelan before you arrive to help develop your understanding of the music.
DANCE (2022 will not include dance study): The study of dance is open to all dancers regardless of level. Classes are structured in a way that nurtures community and friendship and also allows each person to grow artistically.
