    PHILIPPINE FOLK DANCE

    • Incorporates influences from immigrants and conquerors while at the


    same time maintaining distinctly Filipino roots. Philippine folk dancing
    is a true reflection of daily life in past centuries while enchanting
    modern audiences at the same time.
    FRANCISCA REYES AQUINO
    (March 9, 1899 - November 21, 1983)
    • a Filipino folk dancer and academic noted for
    her research on Philippine folk dance. She is
    a recipient of the Republic Award of Merit
    and the Ramon Magsaysay Award and is a
    designated National Artist of the Philippines
    for Dance.
    • “Mother of Philippine Folk Dance”
    PRE-COLONIAL ERA
    - They danced to appease the gods, to
    curry favor from powerful spirits, to
    celebrate a hunt or harvest, to mimic the
    exotic life forms around them. They
    danced their stories and their shamanic
    rituals, their rites of passage and their
    remembered legends and history.
    MUSLIM MERCHANTS
    - Their conversion of the populace was a
    modest affair; they were more interested
    in commerce than colonization, although
    they did establish strongholds and convert
    the local populace to Islam. They also
    created their own folk dances in the areas
    where they settled. Singkil is one of the
    most famous.
    SPANISH COLONIZATION
    - folk dances survived the European
    invasion, and the dancers adapted
    imposed Christian belief and culture
    to their own dances, borrowing court
    choreography but imbuing it with
    Philippine spirit. The Maria Clara
    dances merged Spanish court style
    (and its stylized courtship
    conventions) with Philippine
    exuberance.
    FOLKLORIC FUSION
    - The revered folk dances from the
    lowlands and the hill tribes persist in
    their traditional form and in
    contemporary choreography for
    Philippine ballet companies. Dance is
    still the theater of identity for the
    Filipino people, a vibrant and cherished
    way to tell their story forward with all
    the rich history of their past.
