Acehnese Saman Dance (Indonesia)
Hey all steemit friends, how are you? I hope you all stay healthy.
In this post I want to share a little story about the Saman dance customs in Aceh, Indonesia. This Acehnese Saman dance also uses hand, body and head movements. With this combination, the Saman dance also creates a combination of various movements such as hitting the chest, shaking the head and and bowed.
This saman dance is also popular in Indonesia and abroad, usually people know the saman dance as the dance (thousand hands).
The post above explains how they shake each part of the head, chest, and hands. The Saman dance also cannot be done by 1 or 2 people because it does not make the line more beautiful if done by 1 or 2 people. The Saman dance line consists of at least 4 or 6 people and the Saman dance is also usually performed to welcome big holidays such as weddings, traditional cultural events and welcoming arts and culture days.
This saman dance has also been around for hundreds of years since the time of the ancestors of the Acehnese because the origins of this saman dance are not too many, because this saman dance has also been around since the Dutch colonized Indonesia in the archipelago.
However, even though many Acehnese people themselves do not know where the saman dance comes from, I have heard that the fact that cannot be faked is that the saman dance originates from Aceh Gayo Lues in the Takengon area because the most dominant saman dance originates. from the Gayo Lues area, This saman dance movement also illustrates the ethical values of manners and manners. Occasionally, for those of you who want to see the Saman dance which originates from Aceh, come on the Prophet's birthday, namely his birth month, because in the month of his birth in Gayo Lues the Saman dance is often held.
Maybe that's all my discussion for now, see you in my next post, bye bye.
