Sejarah
Istilah "Joget" berasal dari bahasa Jawa Kuno yang secara harfiah berarti “tarian” secara umum,[5][6] dan berkembang pesat pada era kemaharajaan Majapahit yang berpusat di Jawa bagian timur sejak era abad ke-12. Karena pengaruhnya, kini tradisi Joget dapat ditemukan di seluruh Nusantara. Salah satu penyebutan paling awal dapat ditelusuri dalam naskah Hikayat Raja-raja Pasai awal abad ke-14:[7]
... Maka terlalu ramainya negeri Majapahit itu, sentiasa dengan gong, gendang dan joget, dan pelbagai jenis segala bunyi-bunyian, ingar-ingaran bunyinya dengan pelbagai warna permainan ...
— Hikayat Raja-raja Pasai: 102[7]
Diperkenalkan ke daerah lain
Berasal dari wilayah timur pulau Jawa Indonesia, Joget telah menjadi bagian dari unsur budaya Indonesia yang memainkan peran penting dalam membentuk beberapa tarian rakyat di berbagai daerah, dan pendistribusinya dikaitkan dengan Majapahit, sebuah kemaharajaan asal Jawa. Di pulau Sulawesi (khususnya di Sulawesi bagian selatan) dikenal dengan sebutan 'tarian ritmis Jawa'; istilah Joget pun terserap sebagai Jogéʼ (Lontara: ᨍᨚᨙᨁ) dalam bahasa Bugis dan Makassar.
To Lampung
As the southernmost region of the Sumatra island close to Java, the Joget has reached Lampung as early as late 13th century brought by the Javanese traders. Until present-day, the capital and its adjacent areas of Lampung (such as Metro, Bandar Lampung, etc.) still predominantly inhabited by the Javanese immigrants and Joget is occassionally performed during the Javanese cultural ceremonies.
To Palembang
Joget was introduced to the Palembang region in early 15th century during the era of Palembang Kingdom, which is a kingdom built by the Majapahit prince named Arya Damar. As the vasal state of Majapahit, the performance of Joget in the palace of Palembang Kingdom mainly served as the court performance and commonly performed by the female dancers.
Introduced to Southern America
To Suriname
The existence of Javanese immigrants in southern America can not be separated from the dark history of Dutch colonialism in Indonesia (specifically in Java island). The Javanese people were abducted from their origin home in Java, and forcefully enslaved to work in plantations (mainly). However, it does not extinguished their Javanese spirit to preserve their cultural tradition, and one of them is through the Joget performance. Similar to its original form in the Indonesian island of Java, the Joget performance in Suriname usually also accompanied by the Gamelan (Javanese musical instrument).
Introduced to Mainland Southeast Asia
To Malaysia
Commonly dubbed as the Joget Gamelan due to its prominent usage of the Gamelan (Javanese musical instrument), these performance reached the Kra Peninsula by the early 19th century era (specifically in 1811), and was performed for the first time at a royal wedding in Pekan (the capital of Pahang).[8] In modern days, it has spread to the state of Malacca as well, where the Joget style has incorporated into the Portuguese dance of Branyo.
