C. Discussion

Filipino folk-dance history is not the

history of a single national dance of
one or two regions. Dances evolved
from different regions which are
distinct from one another as they
are affected by the religion and
culture

particular dance form has not been

by an artist. To the early Filipinos,
dance was an expression of
community life that animates the
various rituals and ceremonies.

Ethnic dance (or Indigenous
dance)found among the
ethnolinguistic groups scattered all
over the Philippine islands who have
not been substantially Westernized.

dance is a performance of Kalinga of
the Mountain Province in the
Philippines. This dance illustrates the
languid grace of a tribe otherwise
known as fierce warriors. Heavy
earthen pots, as many as seven or
eight at a time, are balanced on the
heads of maidens as they trudge to the
beat of the "gangsa" or wind chimes
displaying their stamina and strength
as they go about their daily task of
fetching water and balancing the
banga.

Another ethnic dance found in southern
Philippines (also known as Muslim dance)
is called Singkil. Like their brothers from
central and northern Philippines, Filipinos
in the South are avid lovers of dance. The
dances, particularly of the Maguindanao,
the Maranao, and the Tausug, are largely
ceremonial and are often accompanied by
percussion instruments such as gongs and
drums.

Singkil is usually in the repertory of most

Filipino dance troupes. There are many
interpretations of this dance. In 1958 the
Bayanihan Dance troupe started with a
simple version and has since developed it
into a theatrical and stylized spectacle to
the point of it becoming the troupe's
signature piece. According to Maranao
legend, the
Singkil derives its name from the feat of a
certain Princess Gandingan. While she was
walking in the forest, diwatas (fairies)
caused the earth to quake and shake the
trees and rocks.Princess Gandingan,
however, skipped nimbly from one place
to another so that her feet did not touch
the fallen trees and rocks.

Originally, in Singkil (Maranao word for

"getting a leg or foot entangled in an
object") a solo female performer danced in
and out of crisscrossed bamboo poles,
keeping time to the syncopation of the
poles, at the same time manipulating two
fans (apir). The dance had no music other
than the beating of the poles and had a
moderate and static rhythm.

2. Spanish Colonial Period- Exposed for
almost four centuries to the influence of
European dances, the Filipinos gradually
assimilated the dances of the Spaniards,
evolving their own simplified versions and
derivations of the different forms with each
region adding its own touches. The
elegance of the body and arm movements
of foreign dances fascinated the Filipinos,
so they adopted these. However, the sharp
and fast movements of most European
dances were tempered and softened by the
languid grace that is characteristic of many
Filipino dances.
Classification
Maria Clara dance (or Western Influenced
dance)- These dances reached their zenith
in popularity around the turn of the
century, particularly among urban
Filipinos. They are so named in honor of
the legendary Maria Clara, who remains a
symbol of the virtues and nobility of the
Filipina woman. Maria Clara was the chief
female character of Jose Rizal's Noli Me
Tangere. Displaying a very strong Spanish
influence, these dances were, nonetheless,
"Filipinized" as evidence of the use of
bamboo castanets and the abanico, or
Asian fan. Typical attire for these dances is
the formal Maria Clara dress and barong
tagalog, an embroidered long-sleeve shirt
made of pineapple fiber

An example of a Maria Clara dance
is Cariñosa.

The dance originated in Panay
Island in the Visayan Islands and
was introduced by the Spaniards
during their colonization of the
Philippines. It is related to some of
the Spanish dances like the bolero
and the Mexican dance Jarabe
Tapatio or the Mexican Hat Dance.
According to the book of
Francisca Reyes-Aquino, Philippine
Folk Dances, Volume 2, there is a
different version of the dance in
the region of Bicol. In the Bicol
Region Carinosa, hide and seek
movement is different ways. In the
original version, the dancers used
the Fan and handkerchief as the
way to do the hide and seek
movement, in Bicol they used two
handkerchiefs holding the two
corners of the handkerchief and
doing the hide and seek movement
as they point their foot forward
and their hands go upward
together with their handkerchiefs
following the movement.

3. American Colonial Period- In dance,
America made its presence felt in the
Philippines through “bodabil” dancing, a
term which comes from the French “voix
de ville” street songs, which was dancing in
the variety show which consisted mainly of
popular and theatrical dances from the
U.S.A. but later included Philippine folk
dances and choreographies among its
production number.

Classification
Rural dance (or Countryside
dance)Perhaps the best known and closest
to the Filipino heart are the dances from
the rural Christian lowlands: a country
blessed with so much beauty. To the
Filipinos, these dances illustrate the fiesta
spirit and demonstrate a love of life. They
express a joy in work, a love for music, and
pleasure in the simplicities of life. Typical
attire in the
Rural Suite includes the colorful balintawak
and patadyong skirts for the women, and
camisa de chino and colored trousers for
the men.
One example of a rural dance is Binasuan.
This is a popular folk dance that originated
in Bayambang, Pangasinan. The word
“binasuan” means “with the use of
drinking glasses.” The dancers balance
glasses on their heads and in their hands
as they move. The glasses are filled with
rice wine, which makes any misstep a

Conclusion: Folk dance celebrates
the cultural roots of a particular
group of people. Folk dance is
typically performed as a form of
ritualistic entertainment at social
gatherings. Some kinds of folk
dance tell a culture's foundational
stories, while others may simply
emphasize cultural pride. Folk
dances are important because they
preserve the Philippine culture and
pass it on to the next generation.
They are a uniting force to the
Philippine people.
