Dance #1

i love Javanese dances, and i love dancing! i love its elegance and grace, its history, the music, stories behind the dance, and everything about it!
and... i saw Javanese dance last week. On Thursday night i was watching Ramayana Ballet performed by Students of UKJGS UGM. This ballet is dance drama and tells about a couple Rama and Shinta.
