Rejang Dance

Rejang, The Holy Dance To Delight Gods And Spirits Dressed in great costumes with headdresses, this dance is traditionally performed by young women at a ceremony in the inner courtyard of the temple. This dance is also one of the holiest sacrificial dances to entertain the visiting gods and spirits. Performed without real choreography nor the complicated moves of a Legong – movements and expressive gestures, a form of Balinese dance. When it’s performed, you will see a slow group dance with a simple yet graceful motion. The dancers wear white and gold clothes with headdress adorned with flowers. In some villages, the headdresses are almost a meter high! Also, the girls are sometimes spruced up in gold and decorated with huge amounts of fresh flowers.
