The traditional Thai dance “Khon” is known for its unique and established body language as well as the strict training. However, Pichet Klunchun is not afraid of breaking the conformity and translate the spirit of Khon into the contemporary context, allowing dancers to develop a deeper understanding of their bodies and culture through the dance movements. In this workshop, Klunchun will teach basic Khon techniques and share his experience on integrating traditional Khon into contemporary dance.
