Getting there by BART and BUS:
Take BART to Colma BART Station. At Colma BART take the SamTrans bus #120 going towards Serramonte Shopping Center (ask the bus driver for the right bus). DO NOT get off the bus at the Shopping Center, but continue on the #120 bus about 1/2 mile west of the Shopping Center. Ask the bus driver to let the bus passengers off at Serramonte Del Rey, it will be across the road from the bus stop. See the attached  #120 schedule for Fares and Sunday time schedule. I have also included a File showing the SamTrans (San Mateo County Transit) routes.

Burmese Dance
The Burmese dance uses graceful and lively movements to tell a story. Whether it's a tale of ancient history, political strife, unwavering love or spiritual journeys, the Burmese dancer conveys emotion and action with the common postures of everyday life. The dance steps are executed very slowly with random burst of rapid leaps and movements. With colorful and elaborate costumes, it is clear to see how the Burmese dance has entertained for centuries, and because of its lasting legacy, a talented Burmese dancer is highly respected as a source of national pride.
