1-4 Health/Dance Issues and
Concerns (TRADITIONAL
DANCE)
The Philippines has many popular folk dances which have evolved and changed as
they have been passed down from generation to generation. Although a particular
dance might be performed slightly differently from one region to the next, its
remains true to its roots.
Like other countries, Philippines, too, has a lot of beautiful and gracious dances
known as “folk and ethnic dances“. It is another way to show the country’s culture
and tradition. These dances are also being preserved. It is being taught to the
younger generation.
What’s In

DURING TEACHING
The teacher needs your cooperation. Keep quiet in class or go outside to talk,
unless you have a question of the teacher.
Pay attention – this is the best way to learn new dances.
Don't "correct" the teacher. Later on, you might offer constructive feedback,
suggestions, comments, likes, and dislikes in private.
Do not try to teach your neighbor when someone else is teaching the class.
Don't be discouraged if you don't learn a dance immediately – smile and
have fun anyway.
If you already know the dance being taught, take the class anyway. Your
knowledge can help others near you who are struggling to learn.
Some tunes are used for more than one dance, and some dances are done
differently from "village to village." Don't confuse other students with
different step motifs than those being taught; save them for open dancing.
When you are confident that you can do the rhythm, steps, and style of a
dance and can be a good model for others, request the dance and lead it.
Please be quiet so the teacher can be heard by all dancers.
5
When dancing in the "outside lanes" of the floor, do not back up, do not
dance across the flow. If you find that you do this often, get someone to
explain to you how to avoid doing so and consciously follow their advice.
If you are not dancing, show respect to those who are by not walking
through the busy dance floor and by staying clear of the dance space. First
priority goes to the dance and dancers – give them room.
The safety of your partner and surrounding dancers is your first concern.
Both leader and follower should always be alert to the presence of other
dancers in front, to the sides, and in back to help avoid collisions.
For turning dances, be sure that your shoes don't have rubber soles that can
hurt your knees.
Accompany your partner off the floor instead of leaving that person in the
middle.
BASIC HYGIENE
Dancing involves a lot of close contact; try not to gross out your fellow
dancers by having icky stuff on your hands, eating three heads of raw garlic
for dinner, or not having taken a shower or brushed your teeth in recent
memory.
Use a deodorant, if necessary.
Avoid wearing perfume, as some people are allergic to or are very
sensitive to these chemicals.
If you notice that your partner is hesitant to get into proper dance
hold, is holding his or her breath, bolts from the dance floor once the
dance is over and refuses to dance with you again, take the hint.

What is It
After the discussion the teacher will introduce how to organize an event for a
Traditional dance.
Here’s how:
1. Set goals for your event. What is it that you want to achieve? What do you want
the people concerned to feel after your event?
3. Find an appropriate date, time and venue for your event. Work out the number
of people who will be involved in this.
4. Determine what you want to have during the event. Are you going to have mini
games? Do you want to give prizes? Do you want to conduct a lucky draw? Is there
going to be a photo booth section? Are you going to invite celebrities? Is there going
to be an entrance fee? Are you going to place a medical/emergency team? Are you
going to rent equipment?

5. Knowing the number of people and the activities will affect your budget. Set your
budget according to your initial plan. Adjust the budget or the activities so
everything will be alright.
6. Once you have finalized the budget and the activities, you can start finalizing the
program, too.
After the practice and creating the event the student will perform the traditional
dance here in the Philippines.
