Traditional Contemporary Class by Eriza Trihapsari

Ardhanari came together as a natural formation of a family of creatives, in dance and music of modern and traditional styles. Its members bear experience and hold expertise of on and off stage performing arts management, with an extensive track record of partnerships supported by diplomatic bodies, educational institutions and multinational companies in all its productions.

Contemporary traditional dance combines elements of contemporary dance to traditional creative movement, translating in a more free-form flow with wide movements. We will learn basic technique of both contemporary and traditional dance, with space to explore the dynamics between the two different genres. Eriza is all-rounded contemporary and traditional dancer instructor.
