All dance has primitive origins and is refined and evolved over the ages. As humans started to become civilised, dance became more accomplished.
Much of it evolved into tribal style folk dances.
However in many parts of India dance grew to be intricate and classical. This allowed the dancers to portray various moods and emotions, through gestures of the face, eyes and limbs. Stories were expressed through such dances.
As time passed it became difficult for those not accomplished in classical forms of dance to take part.
In Gujarat, the Garba dance was evolved out of the Raas dance and associated with the worship of various manifestations of divine mother goddesses, hence its form and structure is different from Raas. Garba is believed to have been evolved and nurtured into its now current traditional form, between the fifth and fifteenth centuries of the western era
In due course, in Gujarat, folk dances such as Garba, which came into being to allow the mass of people to enjoy the benediction of dance. To also allow them to express and realise differing moods and passions
The Garba dance has origins in the Lasya Creeeper Danceoo
