Hey fellow adventurers! I hope you feel a boogie in your step because we’re dancing! Or at least watching and reading about people dancing. I’ll leave it up to you if you actually want to dance or not. Often times folk dances are performed during festivals and celebrations. Older, more traditional dances were designed to thank the gods for natural and agricultural events while modern dances tend to be derived from historical events. Both will give you a good look at Filipino culture.
Tinikling
“The Tinikling is considered by many to be the Philippines’ national dance. The dance’s movements imitate the movement of the tikling bird as it walks around through tall grass and between tree branches. People perform the dance using bamboo poles. The dance is composed of three basic steps which include singles, doubles and hops. It looks similar to playing jump rope, except that the dancers perform the steps around and between the bamboo poles, and the dance becomes faster until someone makes a mistake and the next set of dancers takes a turn.”
And if you liked that, you should watch this more modernized Tinikling:
Itik-Itik
“The best description of the Itik-Itik is that the steps mimic the way a duck walks, as well as the way it splashes water on its back to attract a mate. According to popular tradition, the dance was created by a lady named Kanang who choreographed the steps while dancing at a baptismal party. The other guests copied her movements, and everyone liked the dance so much that it has been passed along ever since.”
Binasuan
“The Binasuan is an entertaining dance that is usually performed at festive social occasions like weddings and birthdays. Dancers carefully balance three half-filled glasses of rice wine on their heads and hands as they gracefully spin and roll on the ground. The dance originated in Bayambang in the Pangasinan province, and though it’s usually performed alone, it can also become a competition between several dancers.”
Pandanggo sa Ilaw
“The Pandanggo sa Ilaw is similar to a Spanish Fandango, but the Pandanggo is performed while balancing three oil lamps – one on the head, and one in each hand. It’s a lively dance that originated on Lubang Island. The music is in 3/4 time and is usually accompanied by castanets.”
Maglalatik
“The Maglalatik is a mock war dance that depicts a fight over coconut meat, a highly-prized food. The dance is broken into four parts: two devoted to the battle and two devoted to reconciling. The men of the dance wear coconut shells as part of their costumes, and they slap them in rhythm with the music. The Maglalatik is danced in the religious procession during the fiesta of Biñan as an offering to San Isidro de Labrador, the patron saint of farmers.”
Cariñosa
“The Cariñosa is a dance made for flirting! Dancers make a number of flirtatious movements as they hide behind fans or handkerchiefs and peek out at one another. The essence of the dance is the courtship between two sweethearts.”
Singkil
“The Singkil is a dance traditionally performed by single women to attract the attention of potential suitors. Dancers perform a series of graceful movements as they step in and out from between bamboo poles which are rhythmically clapped together. Fans and scarves are often used to enhance the dancers’ movements.”
I pulled all the descriptions of the dances from http://dance.lovetoknow.com/List_of_Philippine_Folk_Dance. I hope you had fun going down cultural lane with me! Thank you so much for reading my blog! Until our next adventure!
I have been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be a lot more useful
than ever before.
Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment
(it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say,
I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog
blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for novice blog writers?
I’d genuinely appreciate it.
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually something which I think I would never understand.

I ain’t saying your content is not good, however
suppose you added a headline that makes people want
more? I mean Dancing – Bryanna Vs The World is a little boring.
You might look at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create article headlines to get viewers interested.
You might add a video or a pic or two to
grab people excited about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it might make
your blog a little livelier.

Hi, Neat post. There is an issue with your site in internet explorer, could test this?
IE still is the marketplace leader and a good element of other folks
will pass over your wonderful writing due to this problem.
Für jeden Schmutz gewappnet: Der Zaco Saugroboter kann
nicht nur saugen, damit beiliegenden Wassertank ist
er im handumdrehen auch ein Wischroboter. Das lohnt sich erst recht,
wenn du viel Parkett oder Fliesen in der Wohnung hast.
Per App lässt sich auch der Wasserverbrauch anpassen.
Rudimentäre App: Beim Zaco V5x hast du die Wahl zwischen Fernbedienung
und App. Einige Zusatzfunktionen haben im Test nur sporadisch funktioniert – die Kernfunktionen klappten problemlos.
Der Zaco V5x zeigte a fortiori auf glatten Böden eine solide Saugleistung und ist für
1-2 Räume absolut empfehlenswert. Mit seiner Laufzeit von 120 Minuten erreichte er im Test alle Bereiche des Raumes.
Die einfach gehaltene App bietet zusätzlich eine praktische Akkustandanzeige, eine Übersicht
über die Lebensdauer von Bürsten und HEPA-Filter sowie Einstellungsmöglichkeiten für die Wischfunktion. Auch das Saugen unter der Couch war, dank seiner geringen Höhe
von 8 cm, kein Hindernis. Auch beim Wischen behält der Zaco seine niedrige Höhe
– ein großer Vorteil zu Kombi-Geräten, bei denen der Wassertank auf das Gerät gesetzt wird.
Du möchtest die Außenbeleuchtung auf LED umstellen und bist unsicher, ob der
vorhandene Bewegungsmelder mitspielt? Oder du möchtest beispielsweise die Flurbeleuchtung automatisch schalten und fragst dich, welcher Bewegungsmelder
dafür geeignet ist? In diesem Ratgeber erfährst du, worauf du beim Zusammenspiel
zwischen Bewegungsmelder und LED Beleuchtung achten musst.
Ein Bewegungsmelder besteht grundsätzlich aus einem Motion Sensor für die
Bewegungserkennung und einem elektrischen Schalter. Welche Bewegungsmelder
sind für LEDs geeignet? Die daran angeschlossene Lampe leuchtet.
Wird von dem Sensor eine Bewegung erkannt, wird der Schalter aktiviert und damit die Ausgangsspannung eingeschaltet.
Grundsätzlich spielt es keine Rolle, ob der Bewegungsmelder etwa eine Halogen oder LED Lampe schaltet.
Es gibt jedoch einen wichtigen Unterschied in der eines Bewegungsmelders.
Bei Bewegungsmeldern mit einem elektromechanischen Relais kann jede Art von Verbraucher angeschlossen werden. Wird
bei einer Bewegungserkennung das Relais aktiviert,
werden darin zwei Kontakte mechanisch verbunden,
ähnlich wie bei einem normalen Lichtschalter. Bewegungsmelder mit einem Relais als Schaltausgang erkennst du an einem leisen Klicken beim Schaltvorgang.
