Halesa Dance is a kind of culture that exists in the above fourteen tribes along the banks of Nalsarovar-Lake in Ahmedabad and Surendranagar districts. Primarily, it is a puja or worship to Mataji, the clan goddess. It is symbolic spiritual devotion, communal unity, and rich culture associated with tribes. It is very important for the tribes and their non-tribal neighbors, integrating the traditions and practices in the area.

The Halesa Dance is mostly performed during major religious festivals such as Navratri and Janmashtami or other such occasions like Badha-manta votive offerings. These events happen usually in the evenings, highlighting a spiritual atmosphere. Dancers gather at temples or other traditional shrines, attired in vibrant colorful costumes, while participating in collective worship as well as rejoicing. Worship and revelry, as represented in the Halesa dance, reflect not only religious but also socio-cultural events which further create community through shared celebration.

The musical score of Halesa Dance takes on the dholak, manjira, and harmonium as their basic musical instruments for performing this dance. These instruments are quite prominent in both tribal and non-tribal areas as the tribal people do not manufacture them. The performance usually has tanpuras strumming several chalas (different style) enhancing the spirituality ambience as the dancers try to appease their clan goddess with music and rhythm.
