dances performed to be strong
beats of percussion
instruments by the community
of people sharing the same
culture usually done in honor
of a Patron Saint or in
thanksgiving of a bountiful

the merry-making and

movements, costumes and
implements inherent to their

dances are a reflection of the unity
of the Filipino community that
despite the economic, social,
environmental, culture and political
challenges we face every day.
