In dances Шаблон:Anchor

The steps, gaits and poses of using Шаблон:Langnf and Шаблон:Langnf in the traditional Meitei dance-cum-martial art form of Thang-Ta form the basic foundation of the classical choreographic steps of Lai Haraoba, Manipuri Raas Leela, Meitei Sankirtana and Pung Cholom.[1]

The Manipuri classical dance, also known as the Manipuri Raas Leela (Шаблон:Lang-mni[2][3][4]), is a jagoi and is one of the major Indian classical dance drama forms, originating from Шаблон:Langnf.[5] Formally developed by Meitei Hindu King Шаблон:Langnf of Manipur Kingdom in the 18th century CE,[6][7][8] the Manipuri classical dance form, which is considered to be the highest spiritual expression of the worship of Hindu deity Krishna,[9] spreads across the Indian subcontinent in subsequent centuries.[10] Owing to its huge influences on the diverse cultural heritages across India, it is recognised by the Sangeet Natak Akademi of the Ministry of Culture of the Government of India as one of the few primary classical dance forms of the Republic of India,[11] and is honoured with the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award for Manipuri every year.[12]

Pung Cholom and Meitei Nata Sankirtana are the other classical dance forms, which are also related to the Manipuri Raas Leela.[13]

The ritualistic and theatrical dances of the Lai Haraoba, in general and one of its primary forms, the Шаблон:Langnf in particular, are also considered to be classical dances.[14] Notably, Lai Haraoba's Шаблон:Langnf is one of the cultural elements, giving inspirations to the development of the Manipuri Raas Leela classical dance drama form.[15]
