Hansengav Dance




Hansengav is a popular folk dance performed by the tribal community of Manipur. Both boys and girls participate in this dance form. At first, the performers arrange themselves in a circular manner and dance in a rhythmic way. The dance starts with a slow beat and simple footwork, which gradually accelerate as the dance proceeds. In the last part of performance, the male dancers come closer in the circle.
