As the name goes, Folk dances are developed by the common folk of a certain country or region. It is an art developed by the people and reflects their life. They are usually held at gatherings or social functions and are performed to traditional music. Like how classical dances originate from a set of rules, some people define folk dancing as dancing for which there is no governing body and are bound by tradition and learned by observation. Though this is a controversial opinion. The folk dances of India are simple dances that are performed to express joy and happiness among people. The traditional folk dances of India are a burst of verve and vitality. They are performed for every possible occasion- to celebrate the arrival of seasons, festivals, to the birth of a child, a wedding etc. Traditionally, the dancers sing themselves, while being accompanied by artists on the instruments. Each Indian folk dance has its own ancient story of origin and is based on various folklore. Folk dances of India are a colourful extravaganza with the performers adorning flamboyant costumes with extensive jewels. While there are numerous ancient folk and tribal dances, many are constantly being improved. India has a vast list of folk dances with every state having one or more type of folk dance originating from different regions and sects. Some of the popular folk dances are Bihu from Assam, Garba from Gujrat, Kalbelia & Ghoomar from Rajasthan, Chhau from West Bengal, Jharkhand & Odisha and Lavani from Maharashtra
