Sainaimu is ethnic music and dance widespread among the Turkic peoples in the Chinese autonomous region of Xinjiang known as the Uyghurs. The music normally starts slowly and gradually becomes faster, upon which the dances also become more vivid, especially at the end.
Dancers' movements include characteristic neck movements, and movements of elbows, eyes and fingers.
There are various types of sainaimu music and dance. Often the name of the place is mentioned before the word sainaimu in local variations.
Dancers and singers are separated.
