Sumazau is a traditional dance that has been passed down for many generations. The dance is very unique in its own way. The dance is accompanied between a male and female. Based on my point of view, from my hometown, the dance is mainly used for family gathering, parties and wedding days, and also the Kaamatan Festival. The dance is accompanied by an original bronze gongs which was handcrafted. A costume of black is usually the clothing that is worn if the dance is to be performed. There are some other different version of the dance. For instance, Sumazau Papar and Sumazau Penampang. Both of these Sumazau dance have similar dance step but have a different way of performing it.
