Garba is a type of 印度n dance mainly performed at festivals and other special occasions in Gujarat state, 印度. This style of dance is based on a circular pattern and is characterized by a sweeping action performed side to side. Garba performances also include singing and musical accompaniment traditionally provided by dhol and dholak drums, hand-clapping, and assorted metallic idiophones, like cymbals celebrating the festival of Navaratri.
