Kanteluasian

Kanteluasian is a term that refers to the practice of using a single, long, flexible pole or stick to perform various tasks, often in a circus or street performance setting. The term is derived from the Indonesian word "kantel," which means a long, flexible stick, and "luas," which means wide or extensive. Kanteluasian involves the use of a single pole to create a variety of movements, tricks, and acrobatic feats. The performer, known as a kanteluasian, uses the pole to balance, climb, and perform other physical activities, often with the aid of a partner or a group of performers. The pole is typically made of wood or metal and can be several meters long. Kanteluasian is a popular form of entertainment in Indonesia and other parts of Southeast Asia, where it is often performed in public spaces, markets, and festivals. The practice requires a high level of skill, strength, and agility, and performers often undergo rigorous training to master the various techniques and tricks involved.
