Finding Soultari’s Lenggang: Walking Otherwise the company from 1970–1978 was integral for Malay dancers who were selected to be part of the company. To create the multi-ethnic dance suites which will become the hallmark of the company’s repertory, Yeoh had to synchronise the techniques of the dancers who came from various traditional/ethnic dance communities. He did this through introducing certain balletic techniques and presentational skills for the stage. In addition, he also ensured the company’s dancers learnt from each other by embodying specific traditional dance techniques. Yeoh also choreographed Malay dance repertoires for the company. One of his notable “Malay dance” works is the “Harvest Festival Dance” which was a blend of balletic techniques and movements from folk dance. Notes 1. Colonial historian, Mubin Sheppard, has identified four different descriptions of movement in the Malay world. Sheppard describes, “Tandak emphasizes the dancers’ steps, Igal means posturing or dancing with emphasis on body movements, Liok is applied to low bending and swaying of the body, and Tari describes dancing in which the graceful” (82). Soultari Amin Farid is a choreographer, arts educator and researcher from Singapore.

The Problematic Danseuse Nirmala Seshadri Nirmala Seshadri’s work, The Problematic Danseuse, was presented with Pok! by Soultari Amin Farid in Failing the Dance: A Double Bill of Lecture-Performances. In The Problematic Danseuse, Nirmala revisits embodied memories of marginalisation and censorship, plagued by hegemonic and patriarchal issues, which have accumulated over nearly 50 years of training in and performing bharatanatyam. Like Amin’s article, this piece accompanied Nirmala’s presentation, which contains reflections and thoughts collected during their collaborative research process under their Associate Membership with Dance Nucleus.
