Thai Folk Dance - Wesak Concert in Brickfields Maha Vihara (2)



This is a Thai folk dance, featuring long finger nails, curved upwards, as can be seen in this photo. This dance is known as Fon Lep (Finger Dance). It is fascinating to see how the fingers were bended and swayed in a very gentle and beautiful manner, with the accompaniment of melodious Thai traditional music.

Have you seen the performance of Fon Lep before?

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
