The Meandering Skirt is a performance partner dance originating in The Humid Volcano. The rules of the form are applied by choreographers to produce individual dances which can be performed. The dance is accompanied by The Petal-Lyric of Mothers. The dancers perform in a single line, moving to the music's robek rhythm. The partners maintain open contact, communicating intent by pushing together. The dance is punctuated by the aggressive arm carriage of the follower, vivacious hand gestures and the delicate spins of the lead.
