Established in the early eighties, the NUS Malay Dance was renamed the NUS Ilsa Tari in 1998.
With its new identity, the group aims to stage more challenging pieces.
Under the guidance of tutor/choreographer Osman Abdul Hamid, the People's Association Malay Dance Group's choreographer and Singapore's Young Artist Award winner,
the group performs traditional dances such as inang, ronggeng, zapin, lambak and silat.
It also blends contemporary dance forms - where dancers move with free flow of sharp movements - with its traditional pieces.
This results in traditional and contemporary dance.
