Rejang Dewa Dance
The Rejang Dance is a collective women's dance. It is a sacrificial dance in which the offerings to the God are the dancers themselves. The Rejang dancers must be girls who are still pure, often even little girls six years of age.
The dancers are led by a Pemangku (temple-priest) who dances foremost. Behind him is a row of Rejang dancers, holding a piece of thread which is held by the Pemangku and passed on backwards. Sometimes they use fans, sometimes not. The rhythm of the Rejang Dance is very slow and the movements so simply that any girl can dance then. The dance is performed at day time in the Pura.
