Karatong is the Waray, a native of and language in Leyte, a word for bamboo. During the olden times, way before the Spaniards came to the Philippines, the people in Dulag used bamboo to warn the town if there were enemies, such as pirates and tribes, who wanted to invade their lands. Tinikling dance originated during the Spanish occupation in the Philippines – particularly on the island of Leyte. Rice farmers on the Visayan Islands usually set up bamboo traps to protect their fields, yet tikling birds dodged their traps. Locals imitated the birds’ movement, and supposedly, that’s how this dramatic traditional folk dance was born. Pandanggo sa Ilaw is a Philippine folk dance that originated in Lubang Island, Mindoro. It simulates the light and movement of fireflies at dawn or dusk, depicting the courtship of a young man with a maiden. The term ‘ pandanggo’ comes from the Spanish word ‘ fandango,’ which in Portugal is also a common dance, which is defined by marking time with the use of castanet clack, finger snapping, and triple-time rhythm stomping of the feet, a 3/4 time dance. Lapay Bantigue is a local dance art festival that originated from the graceful movements of hovering birds known as seagulls or the LAPAY, found abundant in Barangay Bantigue, Masbate. Flocks of lapay seagulls created a marvelous scenery and inspired the old folks to come up with a local folk dance, that since then has existed and has become an important aspect of the local culture of the people of Brgy. Bantigue and the entire Masbate. Pasigin is a dance that originates from Capiz. It is named after the net, pasigin, which is used to catch the fish. The movements exhibited by the dancers mimick movements of fishermen scooping their nets as they try to catch fish. Along with the swiping motions of their nets, the footwork of the fishermen is intricate, modeling the ways in which they move through the water. The dancers representing the fish are fluid and graceful. The overall tone of the dance is playful and friendly.
