Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan mendeskripsikan nilai-nilai
yang terkandung dalam Tari Sidampeng pada prosesi pernikahan dan sunatan
Rasul di Desa Borengan, Kecamatan Simeulue Cut, Kabupaten Simeulue.
Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik
pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Informan
penelitian meliputi ketua sanggar, tokoh adat, serta masyarakat yang masih
melestarikan Tari Sidampeng. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Tari
Sidampeng mengandung lima nilai utama, yaitu nilai estetis, sosial, budaya,
pendidikan, dan religius. Nilai estetis tampak pada keindahan gerak dan kostum
yang mencerminkan kesopanan serta harmoni antara penari dan syair. Nilai sosial
tergambar melalui semangat gotong royong, kebersamaan, dan solidaritas
masyarakat dalam setiap pementasan. Nilai budaya terlihat dari fungsi Tari
Sidampeng sebagai simbol identitas daerah dan media pewarisan tradisi. Nilai
pendidikan hadir melalui ajaran moral seperti sopan santun, tanggung jawab, dan
penghormatan terhadap adat. Sementara itu, nilai religius tercermin dalam makna
spiritual tarian yang menjadi bentuk rasa syukur kepada Allah SWT pada prosesi
sakral umat Islam. Dengan demikian, Tari Sidampeng bukan hanya sekadar seni
pertunjukan, tetapi juga sarana pembentukan karakter, media pendidikan moral,
serta wujud pelestarian budaya lokal masyarakat Simeulue. Peneliti
merekomendasikan agar nilai-nilai dalam Tari Sidampeng diintegrasikan ke dalam
pendidikan muatan lokal dan dijadikan ikon pariwisata budaya daerah.

ABSTRACT Elvita Efayolanda. (2025). The Values Contained in the Sidampeng Dance in Wedding and Sunatan Rasul Ceremonies in Borengan Village, Simeulue Cut District [Undergraduate Thesis, Universitas Syiah Kuala]. Supervised by Ramdiana, S.Sn., M.Sn., and Tengku Hartati, S.Pd., M.Pd. This study aims to identify and describe the values contained in the Sidampeng Dance performed during wedding and Sunatan Rasul (circumcision) ceremonies in Borengan Village, Simeulue Cut District, Simeulue Regency. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The research informants include the head of the dance studio, traditional leaders, and community members who continue to preserve the Sidampeng Dance. The results indicate that the Sidampeng Dance embodies five main values: aesthetic, social, cultural, educational, and religious values. The aesthetic value is reflected in the beauty of the movements and costumes, which express modesty and harmony between the dancers and the accompanying chants. The social value appears through the spirit of cooperation, togetherness, and community solidarity in every performance. The cultural value is shown in the function of the Sidampeng Dance as a symbol of regional identity and a medium for cultural transmission. The educational value is manifested through moral teachings such as politeness, responsibility, and respect for customs. Meanwhile, the religious value is represented in the spiritual meaning of the dance, which serves as an expression of gratitude to Allah SWT during sacred Islamic ceremonies. Thus, the Sidampeng Dance is not merely a form of performing art but also a means of character building, moral education, and the preservation of Simeulue’s local cultural heritage. The researcher recommends that the values of the Sidampeng Dance be integrated into local content education and developed as a cultural tourism icon for the region.
