I am Sudiharto. I was born March 27, 1975 in Yogyakarta. I am a traditional/classical, contemporary dancer and a choreographer. I started to learn dance when I was fifteen years old at SMKI (high school of arts, department of dance) Yogyakarta for four years. In that school I learned traditional/ classical dance more specific was Classical Javanese Dance. At the same time I also learned with Romo Sasmito Mardowo, Yogyakarta’s Master of Classical Javanese Dance at Pamulangan Beksa Ngayogyakarta Foundation. I finished my high school in 1994. Later I studied in Indonesian Institute of The Arts Yogyakarta. In that Institute I learned traditional/classical, contemporary dance and choreography.
In 1996 I have ever learned choreography with Leyson Ponce from Venezuela and Maxine Heppner from Canada when I have got opportunity from Indonesian Institute of The Arts Yogyakarta to follow Indonesian Dance Festival workshop for ten days in Jakarta.
I have seriously learned contemporary dance with Miroto and since 1997 I started to join Miroto Dance Company and about 8 years active to support Miroto work in land and abroad at present. Knowledge about contemporary dance give me opportunity to collaborate with choreographers that are : EE. Chiang from Singapore (1998),Wendy McPhee from Australia (2000), Janis Brenner from America (2001), Angela Liong from Singapore (2002), Tony Yap from Australia (2005) and Veronique Delarche from France (2005), collaboration and tour with Veronique Delarche, Alex Grillo (France) and Sapto Rahardjo (Indonesia) in France and Indonesia (2006).
I was graduated from Indonesian Institute of The Arts Yogyakarta in 1999 and now I am still active as a traditional/classical dancer, contemporary dancer and also as a choreographer.
