A dance known as the Cendrawasih originated from I Gde Manik and was first performed in the Sawan subdistrict of the Buleleng Regency in the 1920s; the area is the origin of numerous dances, including Trunajaya, Wirangjaya, and Palawakya. However, this version was significantly different from the dance that is now commonly performed.[1]

Present-day performances of the Cendrawasih dance originate from choreogoraphy by N. L. N. Swasthi Wijaya Bandem, who arranged for the first performance in 1988.[2] The Cendrawasih dance is inspired by the bird of paradise, which is known as cendrawasih in Indonesian.[3] It is one of several Balinese dances inspired by birds. Others include the Manuk Rawa and Belibis dances.[4]

Choreographers of individual performances are allowed to include their own interpretations.[2]
