When dancing, it is named because each person takes a bamboo or kapok locust cigarette box in each hand and dances. Yi people also call cigarette box dance as string jumping, music jumping and three-step string jumping. Yi people love cigarette box dance very much, both children and the elderly love to dance. People say that when you hear the four strings ring, your feet itch.
