Dance has always been an integral part of Poku Saeruo Degonjo culture. Baqlii (Children) learn to dance traditional dances at an early age, and dancing is taught in the Academies. For many years after the Norka (The Exodus), full-time dancers were limited in number; dancing was often something someone did in their after-hours while working their 'day job' occupation. In 126 CY (YE -593 ), the Tanoi (Council) restored the occupation of Dancer to its status as a full and proper occupation.

The Tuima'a is trained in multiple dance styles, though they usually have one or two in which they specialize. They are also trained in creating choreography for performances.

Many traditional dancers wear the Safarisa while performing.
