The Srimpi (Javanese: ꦱꦿꦶꦩ꧀ꦥꦶ, romanized: Srimpi) (also written as Serimpi) is a ritualised dance of Java, Indonesia, associated with the royal palaces of Yogyakarta and Surakarta. The srimpi dance is one of the classical dances of Central Java.[1][2] Along with the bedhaya, srimpi epitomised the elegant (Javanese: alus) character of the royal Javanese court, becoming a symbol of the ruler's power as well as the refinement of Javanese culture.
