Barong Dance
For the Balinese people, The Barong Dance is one of the most celebrated Dance Rituals found in Bali, Indonesia. It is a dramatic Art Offering paying homage to God through the beauty of music and movement. "Barong" in Balinese Mythology is considered "the king of spirits." the embodiment of "Good."

Cremation Ceremony
Death is not the End. The Balinese are a very religious people who believe that "the cycle of life" does not end with the shedding or "Death" of our temporal selves...our bodies. Rather, they believe that the dearly departed's spirit will return to earth embodying another human being. This return is called "Reincarnation."

Kecak Dance
Conceptualized as a Trance Ritual the 80 plus men raise their hands up over their heads, flexing their fingers like fire-flames, all the while chanting "cak ke-cak kec-cak." Pronounced "Ketjack or keh-chanhk." Once in a trance-like state they are said to be communicating with their God or Ancestor's Spirits.
