Over the course of six weeks, Sinta will teach traditional Indonesian dance classes to both children and adults in South Philadelphia. Intended as a cultural preservation effort not only for recent Indonesian immigrants, but also second and third generation immigrants, Sinta will showcase how Indonesian dance teaches more than just exotic movement, but it also tells a story, teaches traditional values, exercises precision, enhances fitness, and boosts confidence. After the classes, participants will have the chance to perform at Indonesian Week hosted by the Indonesian Diaspora Network of Greater Philadelphia. Sinta’s goal is to make Indonesian culture more accessible and well known in the Philadelphia area
