Are you familiar with the different Philippine Folk Dances? I used to dance every Linggo ng Wika back in my elementary days. I tried dancing Pandanggo sa Ilaw, Tinikling etc. It seems like entertainers are just presenting these type of dances during August right?What can you say?

Yes I am very family with folk dances. I love them more than the modern dances of today. I think we should dance more of these even if it is not "Linggo ng Wika". When I was in my primary school, I danced all kinds of folk dances and participated in every school program. My favorite folk dance is tinikling. I don't know if I could still dance this dance at this stage of my life. It's nice to reminisce the memories of school days!

Yes, I am familiar with the Philippine Folk Dances. Those are part of my happy school days. I particularly like Sayaw sa Bangko, Tinikling and Pandango sa Ilaw because they don't just show gracefulness but even expertise of the dancers. I believe every Filipino should be proud of our folk dances.

I have attended cultural presentations and I have seen practically all the Philippine folk dances. But I have never tried dancing, I just love to watch and appreciate the graceful people who dance our beautiful folk dances.

I used to dance Singkil for our field demonstration when I was in grade six. I tried Tinikling also.
