Abstract

This research explores the relationship between dance and mathematical concepts through the analysis of Thengul Dance from Bojonegoro. The purpose of this research is to understand the mathematical patterns contained in the dance movements. Using the qualitative method and ethnographic approach, this research identifies mathematical elements in dance movements, floor patterns, and costumes. The results show that Thengul Dance contains mathematical structures that can be used as an interesting learning tool for students. The integration of ethnomathematics in education is expected to improve students' understanding of mathematics in the context of local culture and preserve cultural heritage. This research contributes to relevant curriculum development and encourages the younger generation to love their culture, as well as opening opportunities for further exploration of other traditional arts
