Dance movements are key! Someone familiar with folk dance can tell you the country of origin for a
particular dance even if they never saw that particular dance before. Folk dance is not just one singular
style of dance, but a collection of many dances. Each style of folk dance can date back several generations
(or centuries) with ties to the Old World. Many folk dances trace their origins back during times when
dance was distinguished between the different classes of society: common and country folk versus the
high society, royalty and elitists.

Philippine folk dance helps keep the people connected to their ancestry and their traditions. Folk
dance helps to preserve the cultural unity of the people. Folk arts, specifically folk music and dance,
embody fundamental values of great worth to our culture, our nation, and our children. There is no better
way to share time together as families and friends. Our job is to preserve the joyful tunes we've inherited
from our ancestors and to pass them on to others.

Magsama-sama sa pag-alay ng sayaw

Mahal ganyan din ang pag-ibig
Ang hindi tapat siguradong maiipit

Sa subli sa una'y inaawit

Ngunit ang pagsasayaw ang nakasanayan
Sama-samang nag-aalay ang buong bayan
Ito'y pasasalamat sa Mahal na Poon

 Mother Rivier was a teacher who self-reliant to teach children to become good and kind person, as a
college student how ware you going teach value of traditional folk dance to our Filipino children?

Folkdance is no longer a thing these days, as I've noticed. With the support of teachers, especially at
MAPEH, I want to maintain and enhance our folkdance by promoting and performing it in any way possible,
such as group dance competitions in barangays, schools, whether local, national, or international. I will also
utilize my voice as a member of the society to speak and educate people about the value of folkdance,
which should not be overlooked. Have patience to educate, and explain that every dance that we had a
great part of our history. Children will gain a better understanding of our culture as a result of these. It also
brings us Filipinos together and preserves the forgotten culture.

Processing Questions:

 Why is ethnic dance important to our culture as a Filipino?

Ethnic dances are found among the ethnolinguistic groups scattered all over the Philippine islands,
who have not been substantially Westernized, either by Spain or the United States. These dances, which
are integral to the community’s way of life, are: the ritual dances, which connect the material world to the
spiritual; the lifecycle dances, which celebrate an individual’s birth, baptism, courtship, wedding, and
demise; and the occupational dances, which transform defense and livelihood activities to celebratory
performances.

 When we say ethnic dance, do you think the dance related or connected to the legend story of the
Region? Why?
Yes because in order to be understood by different cultures, everything has a story behind it. This is
our way of telling other people what they need to know about our culture, and it is very essential to us. It's
also a method for other people to accept, understand, and value our customs and traditions. The history,
culture, and tradition of the ethnic group's people are represented via ethnic dance. It functioned as a
mechanism for minorities and diasporas to reinforce and show their ethnic pride while also challenging
hegemonic mainstream values.

 What moral values can we derived in dancing ethnic dance?

Ethnic dance is any dance form which can be identified as originating with an ethnic culture and
expressing the movement aesthetics of that culture. At the base of ethnic dance are those that imitate
nature and life while at the social core are performed rituals that keep an ethnolinguistic group (or a
convergence of several) which is spirited and cohesive. Dancing as such is a form of survival as much as it is
spiritual and social expression.
