Bali Dance Fest 2024

I played a dual role as co-organizer and lead designer, shaping the vision and execution of this international dance festival.

Introduction

The Bali Dance Fest, held on June 15 & 16, 2024, at The Mansion Hotel & Resort in Ubud, Bali, was a vibrant celebration of global dance traditions and contemporary innovations. The festival featured an eclectic lineup of artists, including Barrio Lindo, Jungle Kitchen, and ACHARYA, who seamlessly blended traditional rhythms with modern beats. Attendees engaged in diverse dance and movement workshops, such as Ecstatic Dance Marathons, Contact Improvisation, 5-Rhythms, and Butoh, fostering a rich environment for cultural exchange and artistic expression.
