Dancing the tinikling is so tricky, if you miss the beat, your foot ends up getting caught between those bamboo sticks. Seeing these makes me miss dancing those. Thanks for your appreciation of the filipino culture!
the philippines is really the odd man out of asia as you can see the spanish influence in every bit of the way and it is so different from its neighbors......
Yeah, but Spanish never became the common language. Even Chabacano, a Filipino dialect that’s mostly Spanish and spoken in one province, is as different from modern Spanish as Portuguese or Italian.
Spanish only never became the common lingo bcs the English banned it and the Japanese embraced Tagalog. Most of our revolutionaries spoke in Spanish, clearly influenced and fueled by European nationalism.
@@StockyDude Spanish actually was an official language but was replaced when the Americans conquered the Philippines and had teachers from US to teach the population English. It also doesn't helped that Spanish was only spoken by the officials and elites.
Small facts about Cariñosa. In the Philippines, aside from it's Spanish meaning, it can also means, attractive, charismatic. It's one of the courting, Filipino style, dance. The significance of the red handkerchiefs that they held at each end parts, while they dance, is because during earlier times, it's disrespectful to the girls if you touch them. The oldies use to say, if a boy touched the girl, wether it's accidental or intentional, he should marry the girl.
They are both Spanish/Hispanic influenced as well in the way of clothing. but indeed the roots of Tinikling and the bamboo sticks are South East Asian :)
Samantha, this Tinikling dance is supposed to simulate the movements of the Tikling birds to escape the bamboo snares or traps. And you are correct, the tempo is 3/4 like a fast waltz.
Tikling is a bird but it is not a swallow. The dance (tinikling) depicts the tikling trying to escape from a trap. I used to hunt the tikling with a slingshot when I was growing up in Nueva Ecija. I am now writing from Virginia, USA.
Some localities perform those dances to welcome tourists to their place. And usually tourists are asked to join in, esp the tinikling and they usually oblige. Would you? 😉
Hello! It's "Ti - Ni - Kling." :-) I am glad that your channel promotes the beauty of our country. I hope you can also feature something about your country. PS: The province of SAMAR in the Philippines also offers wonderful places. See you in our country soon!
Tinikling is pronounced tea-knick-ling. It is a celebration dance usually performed during fiestas and harvest celebrations. Tinikling is from the rural suite of Filipino dances. Carinosa is part of the Maria Clara or Spanish suite of Filipino dances. It represents a courtship dance and costume is from the Spanish past of the Philippines. There are three more suites of dances that you should check out: Cordillera suite from the native mountain provinces, Muslim suite from the south and Lumad suite is tribal dancing also from the south (not as familiar with this last suite).
can you please stop using spanish suite coz its not, the suite wad worn during spanish era but its not spanish you cannot see it in spain or mexico its filipino yes its not asian but not spanish its fusion, stop using the word muslim theres no such thing as muslim suite muslim dance its so happen that this tribe converted to islam religion but before that they have their own religion the so called muslim dance muslim suite could be tausug maranao badjao , if you keep saying muslim.itd just like saying christian dance christian suite, and also this muslim suite or muslim dance is different from muslim suite and muslim dance from malaysia and indonesia
@@pearloftheorient2752 I have a set of Filipino dance videos by an acclaimed Filipino dance group from the Philippines. I obtained these dances because our children, although of at least half Filipino parentage, were interested in learning more of the culture. Adults decided to teach them our traditional dances. The set named the different suites thusly, You should thoroughly peruse the different products coming out of the Philippines and correct them so others are not mistaken.
@@puglover4280 just dont used the word spanish and muslim , they are all filipino give me video or books that this spanish suite was worn in spain or any hispanic country...they do have european vibes because thats part or civilization alangan naka bahag sila, just use the word barot saya terno maria clara dont use spnish suite coz you cannot see that in spain, ask any spañol if they can indentify or they have similar costume like.coz theyre not , dont.use.the word muslim dance or.muslim suite.muslim.my.friend.from.indonesia. who.is a muslim mention theres no such thing as muslim dance or muslim suite.its just saying christian dance christian suite like.the singkil , it is the dance of maranao people.from mindanao.dont.use its a muslim dance or muslik costume
@@pearloftheorient2752 Maria and Clara are Spanish names. Perhaps that should be changed too. One of the parents btw is Tausug and I asked her about that. She told me that she herself called it Muslim suite. This is the reason I used a slash because another generation knew them as the former. That's neither here nor there. I assume your objective is to enlighten not direct condescendingly. Be careful how you approach with your words. You are coming across as intolerant and scolding.
SAMANTHA THANX FOR LOVING OUR CULTURAL DANCE. ITS ONE OF THE FAMOUS TRADITIONAL NATIVE DANCE HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES.SHOULD I SAY ALSO A SPANISH INPIRED OF COURTING A LADY INSTEAD OF SERENADING WITH A SONG THEY BOTH DO IT BY DANCING. CHEERS AND PEACE TO YOU MAM
Долго пытался понять почему филиппинские танцы и костюмы похожи на испанские. А потом понял, что они так названы в честь Филиппа Габсбурга. Это была сложная задача😅
The cariñosa is where man court the woman they change the stepping, in the panyo part is where the woman cover her face and the man should try to peek out fromt the handkerchief to see the beautiful face of the woman, then the woman hold the panyo/handkerchief and the man well try to take it from the girl, they skip the part where the woman use her pamaypay/fan to cover the face same with the handkerchief, used to dance this when i was elementary. I don't know if my English explanation is right you can correct my English if it's wrong i hope this would help.
You know what even tha late Kobe Bryant has tried the tinikling folk dance when he visited us here in the Philippines wearing our national dress which is Barong Tagalog...
i remember when i was in high school this song and dance is one of our requirements,, during practice my pinky finger of my feet was freakin dislocated contacting my self to those bamboos but i snap it back..😅😅
Samantha, did you notice the FORMAL "see-thru" shirts of the males? That was mandatory for Filipinos to wear, when talking to our Spanish masters -- so the latter could see immediately, if the Filipinos had any concealed WEAPONS that could be used against the latter.
This traditional Filipino dance of Tinikling is a joyful rythmic music using the bamboo mimicking the tikling bird (heron) in the rice fields in the Philippines.
hello, good afternoon. thank you for reacting to our traditional dances. 😊❤ please react to "Piliin mo ang Pilipinas" Music Video. thanks!!❤ have a nice day~
Tinikling is a folk dance imitating the movements of HERONS in the rice fields. The farmers used to trap tose birds for meat but the herons are so quick and nimble and wouldn't be trapped that easy.
The highschool im grade 7 teacher tell as bring and where in P.E folk dance tinikling dance a bamboo 9 feet groups and classmate say sir yes sir and im go in home and cut a bamboo o kawayan and im go into a school and get practice and get slow because thats hurt with your hand and wen you master when go faster thats a Physical Education o P.E and thats a project with all school Thank you❤❤❤
This one is dope!! Especially if you get the lyrics pf the song it’s about the extra judicial killings happening in the Philippines. Even if it’s a hiphop dance routine, they made a way for their voices to be heard regarding this big issue that the country is facing. Small groups like this that has depth should be recognized as well. Paligsamahan Hiphop Dance Competition- Cast Link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LZhbAY3DEWc.html
If you'd like to watch more cultural dances of the Philippines, I'd recommend the Bayanihan National Dance Company. Here's a relatively short video showing excerpts from various Philippines dances from pre-colonial, tribal to Spanish colonial periods ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VO5VAwEEDMA.html. If I am to be honest, the Cariñosa dance you watched was a bit underwhelming to say the least.
Thank you Mr Bryantpark88 for referring to Bayanihan National Dance Company’s collage of Philippine dances presented in Seattle, Washington years back. Those were shortened dances solely for youtube time requirement. If am not mistaken that show ran for 1 hour 45 minutes. The Suites presented were Traditions Renewed, Intramuros of Memory, Mindanao Mosaic and lastly People under the Sun!
Singkil is another folk dance that uses bamboo poles. But singkil is more on drama and storytelling. Not everyone can dance the singkil. In a dance troupe or company, only the best and most experienced dancers are tapped to dance the singkil.
