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!

In Niedersachsen waren bis zum 18. Mai Übernachtungen extra für Menschen mit Wohnsitz in Niedersachsen erlaubt, diese Regelung wurde von einem Gericht gekippt.
Weltweit ist Reisen wegen der Corona-Pandemie weiterhin stark eingeschränkt und voller Auflagen wie Quarantäne und Testpflicht
verbunden. Wo in Deutschland ist Urlaub möglich?
Da das Oberverwaltungsgericht zudem das Beherbergungsverbot für auswärtige Touristen in Niedersachsen gekippt
hat, dürfen auch dort wieder Bürger aus anderen Bundesländern Urlaub machen. Dort ist seit dem 17.
Mai kurz Land Urlaub unter Beachtung strenger
Auflagen erlaubt – zuvor war dies bereits in vier Modellregionen der
Fall. Touristische Übernachtungen sind in den meisten Teilen Deutschlands
noch untersagt. Voraussetzungen sind zum Beispiel ein negatives Corona-Testergebnis bei Einreise sowie weitere negative Tests
hier in der Gegend alle 72 Stunden oder alternativ ein Impfnachweis.
Seit 17. Mai dürfen in Schleswig-Holstein landesweit Hotels und andere Beherbergungsbetriebe für Geimpfte,
Genesene und Getestete wieder öffnen. In Deutschland sind touristische Übernachtungen noch allgemein untersagt.
Eine Ausnahme ist Schleswig-Holstein. Urlaub trotz Corona:
Welche aktuellen Regeln gelten?
