Wizards always dance and sing while worshipping the gods, and pray for the gods to ward off disasters and pray for blessings. The earliest record shows that the Zhuang dance in the Huashan mural is actually an ode to the frog god by the ancestors of the Zhuang people at that time.

The shape of this dance posture is to raise the arms with the elbows open, and the legs squat into lunges, the movements are rough and powerful, and they are endowed with characteristics, which is called the frog dance posture.

The witch dance was passed down until 1949 and was divided into Shigong dance and witch dance, which was part of the superstitious activity.

Shigong dances with a grimace shell, one for each god, as many as 30, and each god has different movements and lyrics. The witch dance is performed by a witch when she pretends to be a god and a ghost, dancing with her hands and feet, as if she is possessed by a god. There are other dances related to the gods, such as the copper drum, the spring cow dance, the New Year dance, etc.
