1. The tinikling dance is one of the most popular and well-known of traditional Philippine dances.[1] The
tinikling is a pre-Spanish dancefrom the Philippines that involves two people beating, tapping, and
sliding bamboo poles on the ground and against each other in coordination with one or more
dancers who step over and in between the poles in a dance. The name is a reference to birds locally
known as tikling, which can be any of a number of rail species; the term tinikling literally means
"tikling-like
Subli is a folkdance in the Philippines. It is considered a favorite of the people of the barrios of the
municipality of Bauan, Batangas. It is a ceremonial worship dance performed in homage to the Holy
Cross referred to in the vernacular as Mahal Na Poong Santa Cruz.
Pangalay (also known as Daling-Daling or Mengalai in Sabah) is the traditional “fingernail” dance
of the Tausūg people of the Sulu Archipelago and Sabah.[1]
The dance is the most distinctively Asian of all the southern Philippine dances because dancers
must have dexterity and flexibility of the shoulders, elbows, and wrists[2] – movements that strongly
resemble those of “kontaw silat,” a martial art common in Maritime Southeast Asia. The Pangalay is
predominantly performed during weddings or other festive events.[1] The male equivalent of
thePangalay is the Pangasik and features more martial movements, while a pangalay that features
both a male and female dancer is called Pangiluk.[citation needed]
Cariñosa (Spanish pronunciation: [kaɾiˈɲosa], meaning the loving or affectionate one) is a Philippine
dance of Hispanic origin from the Maria Clara suite of Philippine folk dances, where
the fan or handkerchief plays an instrumental role as it places the couple in romance scenario.
