Introduction and history
Initially, the Joget Serampang Baru dance was known as Tarian Serampang Dua Belas, introduced by Haji Mud from the Sarawak Ministry of Social Development and Urbanisation (now the Ministry of Tourism, Arts, and Culture Sarawak). This dance was first performed in 1977 by the Kumpulan Sri Tarina Sarawak during the National Level Dance Competition, where it emerged as the champion.

Joget Serampang Baru revolves around the journey of a young man seeking a life partner, from the initial meeting to marriage, showcasing how the bachelor wins the maiden's heart. This dance is commonly performed during festive celebrations and weddings. Originally, it was performed exclusively by men, reflecting the social norms of that time, which did not permit women to perform publicly. Today, however, the dance is also performed by women.
