Magunatip Dance Workshop

Magunatip or more fondly referred to as the Bamboo Dance is one of the most popular dances from Sabah. The pride and joy of the Murut people, the dance is a test of agility and rhythmic timing as the dancers dance between the clapping poles and have to be perfectly in sync. During this workshop at YSDAF, participants will have the chance to learn the basics and experience a slice of Borneon culture.

Pre-registration for workshop required due to limited capacity. 

Di dalam bengkel ini, para peserta boleh mempelajari kebudayaan etnik Borneo dan tarian buluh atau Magunatip yang jarang dipersembahkan di Semenanjung Malaysia. Bengkel ini juga memberi peluang kepada peserta untuk memahami kebudayaan yang kurang didedahkan kepada masyarakat umum.

About Yayasan Sime Darby Arts Festival

After two months of Kampung Tour to five states around Peninsular Malaysia, Yayasan Sime Darby Arts Festival 2025 will finally be kicking off its much-anticipated Urban Tour from June to August 2025.

This time, festival goers will have three chances to catch YSDAF at three different locations around Klang Valley which means triple the fun and triple the excitement!

YSDAF 2025 Urban Tour begins at KL East Mall on 14 June, followed by PARC (Subang Jaya) on 5 July and, finally, Elmina Lakeside Mall on 9 August. Everyone is invited!

Like past festivals, YSDAF 2025 will feature bite-sized performances by Malaysian artistes across different genres, from the traditional to the contemporary, from music and dance to theatre and visual arts. Apart from its scale, what sets YSDAF apart is that it also offers a highly interactive experience so you will have the chance to get your hands dirty, pick up a new skill or craft your own masterpiece at one of its workshops.

The highlight of the Urban Tour are its anchor performances by its programme partners Young KL Singers, MyDance Alliance and Orang Orang Drum Theatre. Apart from these highlights, festival goers can look forward to a unique festival experience at each location as the programming ls largely different with a different lineup of artistes and acts.
