The results show that the Ijuak Sapilin Payung Dance is a creative dance work that highlights the integration of traditional elements and innovation through the application of harmonious hierarchical and grammatical relationships.The hierarchical relationship in Tari Payung Ijuak Sapilin is apparent through the organized arrangement of movements from basic movements, motifs, phrases, to dance sentences that combine to form a complete dance composition. Each layer of movement is interconnected and functions to support the overall presentation of the dance. Meanwhile, in terms of grammatical relationships, Tari Payung Ijuak Sapilin shows two forms of relationships, namely syntagmatic and paradigmatic relationships. The syntagmatic relationship is seen in the movement motifs, where the sequence of movements is arranged linearly and continuously to form a logical flow.
