Canang Sari are the beautiful small offerings you see placed all around Bali every day. In this hands-on workshop, your participants learn to craft these delicate creations from palm leaves, flowers and incense, guided by our Poinciana team who share the meaning behind each element. Afterwards, participants can place their handmade offering at one of Poinciana's temples or at the large Buddha statue, accompanied by a blessing - a meditative, joyful experience that connects your group to one of Bali's most beloved daily traditions.

Our Poinciana cooks will guide your group through the basics of Balinese cuisine - introducing local ingredients, demonstrating specific traditional recipes, and inviting participants to get hands-on along the way. The best part? Plenty of tasting! The experience also includes an introduction to Bali's incredible seasonal tropical fruits - snake fruit, mangosteen, rambutan and more - always a wonderful icebreaker for any group.

During this captivating hour-long performance, your group will experience four traditional Balinese sacred ceremonial dances accompanied by a full gamelan orchestra of approximately 20 musicians. These performances aren't merely entertainment - they're sacred storytelling deeply connected to Balinese Hindu spiritual traditions. 

A shorter version of the traditional Balinese dance performance — perfect for adding a cultural moment to a welcome dinner, evening gathering, or special celebration. The beauty, grace and spiritual depth of the dance are just as captivating in this condensed format.

Invite your group to learn the graceful movements of Balinese dance from a local dance teacher. With precise hand gestures, expressive eye movements and flowing positions, Balinese dance is a unique and joyful way to experience this ancient art form. No experience needed - expect laughter, focus, and a newfound appreciation for this ancient art form.
