Khattak is a dance performed very quickly, set to uptempo music featuring the piper, clarion, and drums beaten with sticks. Up to forty men dance together wielding swords or handkerchiefs and performing acrobatic feats. The fast tempo of Khattak distinguishes it from other Atanr, which start slow and pick up speed as the dance progresses.
The Khattak dance has a lot of forms: Shahdola, Bangra, Balballah, Qamar Balbala , chatrali, braghda’ona, tamseeli dana ,charri dana and indiviual performance.
