Sarhhtha
Performed by trained S'Kra Mur, this style of dancing is often defined as ritualistic. It is deeply ingrained into the race's culture.
Gamant'hhshhtha
The First House of Dance.
Little is known about where the House is; however, it is custom for the Dancers of this House to entertain at important social events such as weddings.
Dancer's Attire
Similar in style to Middle Eastern dances, Sarhhtha features scarves, sashes, and shorter style gamantangs designed for dancing.
Movements
Sarhhtha is stylized by dramatic and sharp movements that are paired with poise, grace, precision with an aesthetic flow. Examples of commonly used movements:
- Twirling, spinning, and circle patterns often used with scarves and sashes.
- Sinuous body movements that utilize amazing control over the body and often include arcing circular movements.
- Sharp gestures with the body that require lower body strength, but give the illusion of being performed with great ease.
- Staccato stomping and clapping to create aesthetically pleasing waves across the flowing fabric of the short gamantangs used.
