Timeline
Didik Hadiprayitno enrolled in Akademi Seni Tari Indonesia (ASTI, Indonesian Academy of Dance) in 1970. One contemporary dance he performed there was Nini Thowok, based on an old children's game, so he adopted Didik Nini Thowok as his stage name after he graduated in 1974. In 1979, he studied the Cirebon mask dance with Ibu Sudji in Cirebon, West Java. This was the first and the most important training outside of Central Java according to him. Later he studied from many traditional masters in Yogyakarta, Surakarta, Malang, Bali, West Java, and beyond. In Bali, he studied Balinese dance with I. G. A. Ngurah Supartha. He also went to Japan and studied the buyō and noh dance, but he wasn't allowed to study kabuki due to strong inclusion rules. Other dances he learned included the bharatanatyam in India and the flamenco in Spain. What separates him from other dancers is that he studied all dances seriously, by being deferential to his teachers and accepting other cultures wholeheartedly.

While in elementary school, like many other ethnic Chinese who changed their names during the Indonesian mass killings of 1965–66, he changed his name to Didik Hadiprayitno in 1965.
