Bregada

Procession and art of soldiering in Indonesia

Bregada, more fully as bregada kaprajuritan is an art of soldiering that originated in the Mataram Sultanate. It adapts military elements to Javanese culture. Unlike other forms of soldiering, bregada usually appears as an army that is generally deployed during traditional ceremonies or folk festivals, such as Grebeg or merti dusun. The word bregada comes from the word "brigade." There are currently 4 categories of bregada active in Yogyakarta: bregada Keraton Yogyakarta, bregada Keraton Surakarta, bregada Pura Pakualaman, as well as bregada formed independently by the community, called bregada rakyat.
