EXPLAIN
What is Folk Dance?

Folk Dance refers to the dances created and performed collectively by the
ordinary people. The term usually includes: so called “ethnic dances” such as those
of the cultural community in the Cordillera, in Mindoro, Palawan, Sulu and
Mindanao; and the rural or lowland Christian dances, among the groups, like the
Ilocano, Pangasinan, Tagalong, Pampango, Bicol, Cebuano, Ilongo and Waray.

Folk dances may also divided into the “regional, which refers to the dances
particular to one locale or area; and the “national” which refers to those performed
all over the country. A related term is “creative folk dance” which refers to
character dances whose choreography uses folk steps and music.

Philippine folk dances are diverse, and include religious, ceremonial, and
courtship, funeral, combative, exorcism, torture, comic and game dances. They
have been named after saints, heroes, teachers, foreign steps or dances, their
countries or regions or origin, events, tribes, Philippine steps, a combination of
steps or of steps and places and a combination of words.

Philippine folk dances other than religious, ceremonial, and a few social are
performed with attention to detail and after meticulous rehearsals.

Filipino ethnic groups still believe in the efficacy of dance as a means of

communicating with deity. Christianized Filipinos too dance too plead with, or to
thank the Virgin Mary or a patron saint. As in Filipino religiosity, the influence of
indigenous culture persists, despite colonization.

Insects, reptiles, fowls, birds, simians, medicinal and fragrant plants, edible
shoots, the national flower, bamboo nodes, and the sound of wind as it passes
through the leaves have all been accorded recognition in the Philippine Dance.

Activities such as rice production, broom making, gold panning, fishing,

tuba making, gathering of sweet potatoes, clams or honey, fetching of water, pot
making, corn planting, and communal work have been reflected in Philippine folk
dances.
The dances use movements of the head, waist, arms, feet throwing circling,
swooping, offering, crowning. Some dances feature flags, beating with the sticks,
and swaying motions such as those of drunkards. Hand or stage properties are
used: fans, earrings, bench, food covers, hats, fish containers, pots, leaves, floral
arches, coconut shells, wooden implements, chopsticks, and many poles.
