Accompanied by the melodic strains of Tarawangsa music, participants dancing in rhythmic dance, some even entering trance states. On the other hand, the advancement of artificial intelligence technology is rapid. This research used machine learning for detecting the motion poses of dancers experiencing trance. The research endeavors to discern motion poses within trance dancers during Ngalaksa rituals for understanding the dynamics motion of traditional Ngalaksa rituals. Machine learning methods applied particularly computer vision utilizing GluonCV model. The study analyzes a dataset comprising motion poses of dancers in Rancakalong Village. Data gathering involves firsthand observation, field participation, and in-depth interviews with informans, including Saehu, dancers and Arak-Arakan participants. The research findings show the accuracy of pose estimation within the Ngalaksa ritual, though refinement of detection models for both trance and non-trance dancers warrants further research.
