A new book and DVD that just launched will provide people interested in learning the traditional local dances of Seychelles the opportunity to learn.
Aimed at creating a standard by which competitions will be judged, the book is called ‘Standardizasyon Ladans Tradisyonnel – Ladans Senp,’ or “Standardisation Traditional Dance – Simple Dance’ in English.
“We have noticed in competitions that some people are not satisfied as the style of dancing differ from group to group. We want to have a standard on which we will be able to judge performances,” said Cecile Kalebi, the principal secretary for the Department of Culture.
