The dancers, often shirtless to minimize the risk of clothing catching fire, wear brightly colored sarongs and sashes. These performances are deeply rooted in Polynesian traditions but have been adapted into various cultural contexts, including Thai performances. The fire knives are typically long metal rods with flaming ends, which the dancers skillfully twirl, throw, and catch.
