Another opinion says this dance is danced less than 10 people, with details of 8 dancers and 2 as cue givers while singing. However, developments in the modern era requires that a dance would be more lively when danced by a dancer with higher numbers. This is where the Sheikh, it must regulate the movement and singing poems Saman.
