Training

Traditional Khmer Music & Dance

Music and dance has always been a strong tradition in both Khmer culture and at Sangkheum Center for Children. Children and youth are being offered the opportunity to learn traditional Khmer dance and how to play traditional music. The children are being taught this beautiful and fun art from professional trainers.

Our most skilled dancers perform in several hotels, which also in other ways support our children and share our vision of a brighter future for the children of Cambodia. The performing youths are being paid for each performance and the income also covers the costs of uniforms, make up and training.

Handicraft

Our handicraft grandmother visits us three times per week and teaches our children to make traditional handicrafts in rattan.

Dressmaking

For traditional Khmer dancing you need traditional Khmer practice outfits and for performance you need beautifully designed performance uniforms. Several of our youths have been trained in sewing in order to design and create these outfits.
