Abstract

The Rejang Asta Dala dance, as a sacred dance in Ubud, functions not only within religious rituals but also as a medium of cultural education that transmits symbolic values and cultural meanings within its supporting community. However, contemporary practices indicate a shift in orientation toward technical and visual aspects, potentially reducing philosophical depth and the sacred character of the dance. This study aims to analyze aesthetic interactions in the process of transmitting symbolic values and cultural meanings in the Rejang Asta Dala dance. The research employs a qualitative approach using ethnographic methods, including participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation study. Data analysis is conducted through hermeneutic and semiotic perspectives. The findings reveal that the aesthetic elements of the dance, namely movement, spatial orientation, costume, and music (gamelan), function as a symbolic system that encodes Balinese Hindu cosmology, such as Asta Dala, Dewata Nawa Sanga, and Tri Hita Karana. Cultural education takes place through a hermeneutic cycle involving embodied experience in ritual practice (ngayah), intergenerational reflection, and mediation by the customary community (banjar), thereby shaping reflective and agentic cultural subjects. Despite its effectiveness, the sustainability of this dance's educational function faces challenges from tourism and modernization, necessitating efforts to safeguard the integrity of ritual contexts and the community's role as guardian of meaning.

Abstract

The Bedana Negeri Olok Gading dance is a traditional art form from Lampung that functions not only as an aesthetic expression but also as a medium for character education. However, in contemporary practice, the Bedana dance is often positioned solely as a ceremonial performance, while its potential as a character education medium remains underutilized. This study aims to identify character education values embedded in the Bedana Negeri Olok Gading dance, analyze its function as a character education medium, and examine its role in preserving local culture. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with artists and traditional leaders, and performance documentation. Data analysis involved data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, grounded in character education and arts education theories. The findings indicate that the Bedana Negeri Olok Gading dance embodies values such as religiosity, discipline, responsibility, togetherness, and politeness, internalized through movement structures, musical accompaniment, and social performance contexts. This study emphasizes the role of Bedana dance as a contextual and sustainable medium for character education in local cultural preservation.
