The Kecak
The Kecak dance, ( pronounced ‘ ketchak’), is perhaps the most stunning of all the Balinese dances, despite its comparative simplicity. Up to one hundred or more men, bare from the waist up, form a living backdrop and simultaneous orchestration for the enaction of an episode from the Ramayana.
The name of the dance is derived from the "chak-chak" sounds that emanate in syncopated rhythm from the "singing" of the spirits in the ritual Sanghyang trance ceremony.

In the midst of this melee, the dancers enacting the story sway and leap by torchlight, whilst a story teller chants the story enacted. Regular performances of the kecak dance are held in Denpasar in the evenings, and the opportunity to witness this unique dance should not be missed.
