I Ketut Kanta gives free Kata Kolok lessons to children. Connie de Vos, a Dutch researcher from the Centre for Language Studies at Radboud University in the Netherlands, has visited many times over the course of the last decade and helped I Ketut Kanta lobby for the inclusion of kolok children in the local school and for Kata Kolok lessons for hearing children. The village also has a craft centre, called KEM, where several kolok women are employed to produce woven textiles on traditional handlooms. The centre also attracts occasional tourist groups who come to watch kolok martial arts as well as a specially choreographed dance known as Janger Kolok, which has become locally famous and is even performed at hotels and government conferences throughout the region.

坎塔会免费教孩子们手语。在过去的十年中，荷兰内梅亨大学语言研究中心的研究员康妮（Connie de Vos）多次来参观他的课堂，还帮助坎塔游说当地学校接纳失聪儿童并为健全儿童提供手语课程。村里还有一个叫做KEM的工艺中心，雇佣了几名失聪妇女用传统手摇纺织机织布，并吸引了一些旅游团前来观看聋人武术表演和一种特别编排的舞蹈聋人之舞（Janger Kolok）。这种舞蹈在当地很有名，甚至会在巴厘岛的酒店里和政府会议上表演。
