Theme : Describe Traditional Dance In Indonesia

The saman dance is part of the cultural heritage of the gayo people of aceh province in
sumatra. Boys and young men perfom the saman sitting on their heels or kneeling in tight
rows. Each wears a black costume embroidered with colorful gayo mofits symbolizing nature
and noble values. The leader sits in the middle of the row and leads the singing of verses,
mostly in the gayo language. These offer guidance and can be religious, romantic or
humorous in tone. Dancers clap their hands, slap their chests, thighs and the ground, click
their fingers, and sway and twist their boodies and heads in time with the shifting rhytm-in
unison or alternating with the moves of opposing dancers. These movements symbolize the
daily lives of the gayo people and their natural environment. The saman is performed to
celebrate national and religious holidays, cementing realationship between village groups
who invite each other for performances. The frequency of saman perfomances and its
transmission are decreasing, however. Many leaders with knowledge of the saman are now
elderly and without successors. Other forms of entertainment and new games are replacing
informal transmission, and many young people new emigrate to further their education. Lack
of funds is also a constraint, as saman costumes and perfomances involve considerable
expense.
