Generally, Golf dance is performed during the Shigmo festival in Phalgun month. Each dancer holds a colourful cord that is hanging at the center point of the `mand`, which is the place of dance performance. The dancers start dancing intricately forming a beautiful, colourful, intricate braid at the end of the first movement. The music begins once again and the dancers reverse the pattern of dancing in such a skillful manner that at the end of the second movement, the braid gets unrevealed and all the cords are loose and single once again.

There are four different braids of Goff dance. The songs that are sung during the dance performance are mostly devoted to Lord Krishna. Ghumat, Samael and Surta Shansi or melodic instruments accompanies the dance performance. Goff has an affinity with tribal dance forms of Gujarat State.
