Kalbelia - sensuous dance of the snake handling tribal women of Rajasthan
From the archive record
The Kalbelia or Kalbeliya or Karberia, as it is sometimes spelt is a dance form that is associated with a Rajasthani tribe of the same name. The dance form consists of swirling, graceful movements that make this dance a treat to behold. The movements associated with the Kalbelia also make it one of the most sensuous forms of folk dance in India. The Kalbelia dance is generally performed for any joyous celebration and is considered to be an integral part of the Kalbelia culture. Another unique aspect of the Kalbelia dance is that it is only performed by women while the men play the instruments and provide the music. The Kalbelia tribe follow Hinduism and are a nomadic tribe and are considered to be a fringe group in society. They prefer to live in places just outside of villages and cities
