Is it Indian Dance or Chinese Dance?

The Indian Language Drama and Debating Society (ILDDS) is about poised poses and graceful facial expressions. It instills in students a strong sense of discipline, respect for both the guru and dance form, as well as self-assurance, fortitude, and teamwork. To demonstrate their creativity and dance prowess, the students were also given a chance to choreograph brief musical selections.

ILDDS was awarded with the Certificate of Distinction Award in the 2023 Singapore Youth Festival (SYF) Arts Presentation. ILDDS also performed a lively and fast-paced folk dance during National Day Celebrations. The coordination in this performance represents the unity of Singaporeans.
