Folk dances are the indigenous dances of any specific “folk” or the
common people. They are traditional customary or recreational dance forms
of a given country that have evolved naturally and were handed down
across generations.

Folk dances are related to everything of importance in our daily

lives, such as customs, rituals, and occupations of a specific group of
people. Most of these dances are related in origin to religious belief,

6
 stemming from emotions, superstitions, festivals, ceremonies of birth,
courtship, marriage, death, war, and countless themes common to all
people around the world. According to Duggan, Schlottmann, and Rutledge
(1948), “folk dance became the overt expression of emotions and ideas
which were peculiarly significant or the re-enactment of customs and events
constituting an important part of their history and patterns of daily living”.

Lopez (2006) defined Philippine folk dance as a “traditional model” of

expression that employs bodily movements of redundant patterns linked to
definite features of rhythmic beats of music. She further stated that
Philippine folk dance, to be called such, should have the following
characteristics:
1. It is traditional.
2. It has expressive behavior.

pattern of movement.

dancing where dancers are free to express their feelings through movements

choreography.

American Dances and the Modern Standard Dances. Latin American Dances

Festival dances are cultural dances performed to the strong beats of

percussion instruments by a community of people sharing the same culture
usually done in honor of a patron saint or thanksgiving of a bountiful harvest.
Festival dances may be religious or secular. But the best thing about festivals is
that they add to the merry-making and festivities where they are celebrated, the
reason why they are called festival dances after all. Festival dances draw
people’s culture by portraying the people’s ways of life through movements,
costumes, and implements inherent to their place of origin. Filipinos do festivals
primarily to celebrate. Festival dances are a reflection of the unity of the Filipino

 What is It

Dance is an integral part of human existence. Just like a song, dance is

also composed of different genre Some of the most popular kinds of dance
include ballet, modern and contemporary dance, hip-hop, and various types of
social and ballroom dance. The dance consists of several elements such as
space, time, energies, and bodily shape. It has a beginning, middle, and end,
and is composed of several phrases. It also has a motif or a theme. Dance can
be considered good if it has unity, continuity, variety, clear transitions,
repetitions, and climax. Evaluating dance depends highly on the role of
