    Cariñosa

    Cariñosa (Spanish pronunciation: [kaɾiˈɲosa], meaning the loving or affectionate one) is a Philippine
    dance of colonial era 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.

    The dance originated in Panay Island in the Visayan Islands and was introduced by
    the Spaniards during their colonization of the Philippines. It is related to some of the Spanish dances
    like the bolero and the Mexican dance Jarabe Tapatio or the Mexican Hat Dance.

    Alitaptap
    The Aliptaptap Philippine Folkloric Group (APFG or Alitaptap) was named after a soft-bodied
    nocturnal beetle of the Lampyridae family called alitaptap (firefly). Alitaptap has a light-producing
    organ that produces beautiful flickering lights at the rear of the abdomen as they surround a tree
    during the wee hours of the night. APFG is compared to a flock of fireflies dancing beautifully and
    joyfully around that tree.

    The mission of Alitaptap is to keep alive the Philippine culture and heritage by enhancing the
    understanding and appreciation of our rich and diverse cultural heritage; by introducing and
    presenting Philippine folk dances, music, songs, and costumes: to strive to perfect abilities and
    excellence in performing arts.

    La Jota Manileña

    Is a dance influenced by the Spanish and its name is inspired by the name of the capital city of
    the Philippines, Manila. La Jota Manileña is a Filipino adaptation of the Castillan Jota. It is a
    dance with a bamboo castanets being clack by the dancers while they are dancing. The costume
    of the dancers and their movements were all inspired by the Spanish.
