Epic Arts, Cambodia National Ballet Phnom Penh, are just a few of the Cambodian dance companies, Cambodian dance schools, Khmer dancing organizations and dance wear suppliers that that can be found in our comprehensive Directory of Cambodian Dance Companies. When thinking about dancing in Cambodia we often use the traditional name Khmer which is the ancient name of the Khmer people who have long had a civilization in Southeast Asia and now the Khmer people mostly occupy the area we know now as Cambodia. SO if you are looking for information about Khmer dance companies and Khmer dance schools then you have found the right place.

Traditional Cambodian Dance
I think that dance has the power to capture our imagination and emotions. As we watch a dance or start to move our bodies, dance movements have the ability to transport us to other times and places. Dance can be enchant us, make us dream, tell stories, and have a spiritual meaning. In Cambodian classical dance, this is so very true. It has been said that Dance is the Spirit of Cambodia!

Classical Cambodian dance movements are very slow. Dancers are trained for many years to learn the different hand gestures, facial expressions, and bows. When I watch a classical Cambodian dancer hands, sometimes I see flowers or sometimes butterflies or birds. Sometimes the dancers - moving across the stage, are telling a myth from ancient times in Cambodia, illustrating a legend, or enacting a spiritual blessing.

Classical Cambodian dance traces it roots back to the carvings of asparas (angels in Cambodian) on Cambodian's oldest temple, Angkor Wat. These dances were created more than a 1,000 years ago and have been passed down from mother to daughter for many, many generations.

These traditional dances tell stories and they are populated with princes and princesses, giants, monkeys, peacocks, and other mythical figures. While many works are tell stories or famous legends of love and war and magic, others are considered "pure" dance -- or dancing for the joy of dancing without telling a story.
