GHOOMAR
This is a traditional women's folk dance from Rajasthan. It is performed by groups of women in swirling robes, and accompanied by men and women singing together.
This folk dance gets its name from 'ghoomna', the pirouetting which displays the spectacular colors of the flowing 'ghaghara', the long skirt of the Rajasthani women. There is an amazing grace as the skirt flair slowly while the women folk twirl in circles, their faces covered with the help of the veil. Their measured steps and various graceful inclinations of body, beating palms or snapping fingers at particular cadences while singing some lilting songs.
