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!

Hello! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for
this site? I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve
had problems with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.
I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
Seit Mitte Juli liegt die auch R-Wert genannte Ansteckungsrate wieder häufig
über 1 und das bedeutet, dass sich der Pool an Infizierten wieder sukzessive vergrößert.
Ehrlich gesagt nicht schnell wie im Frühjahr, aber je länger der leichte Anstieg andauert, umso größer
ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass doch wieder Fallzahlen deutlich oberhalb der 2000er-Marke es kommt zu.
Entsprechend verharren die täglich registrierten Todesfallzahlen seit Juni auf einem sehr niedrigen Niveau im meist einstelligen Bereich.
Sollte das Virus aber aus der Gruppe der Unter-35-Jährigen heraus wieder seinen Weg hin zu den Älteren finden, können auch die aktuell niedrigen Todesfallzahlen erneut ansteigen. Wo genau infizieren sich
die Menschen mit dem Coronavirus? Zum Vergleich: Im Frühjahr
wurden täglich bis zu 250 Todesfälle durch oder mit Corona-Infektionen gemeldet.
Nach Schätzung des RKI steckte im April ein Covid-19-Infizierter
typisch vier weitere Personen an. Dieser Wert sank bis Juni auf Werte deutlich unter 1.
Das bedeutet, dass damals die Zahl der Infizierten von Tag zu Tag abnahm.
Dann wird man einen weiteren Vergleich ziehen können – nämlich den, wie das Gesundheitssystem im Vergleich zum Frühjahr mit den hohen Fallzahlen zurechtkommt.
Dass Sars-CoV-2 der Sprung zwischen den Altersgruppen diesmal vielleicht ehrlich gesagt nicht schnell
gelingt, dafür spricht die Ansteckungsrate.
