PAGGAWA Tinikling Dance

Oh, okay. BTW What was the music?

I wasn't talking to you when I said are you disappointed lol. I was talking to the person
who says "I'm not sure why someone send me this. Maybe it was a joke."
I am Filipino too, btw...

unlike the filipino version where it goes by the 1,2,3, 1,2,3 count... the version we learned was 1,1,2,2,1,1,2,2 (hit the floor twice, hit the sticks twice) and obviously the music was different.

Disappointed? not at all. Filipinos in America are held in high respect due to thier work ethic, kindness, and gentleness. We are the # 1 minority in Americas health field. The other half is German. The American version is the same. I'am proud of my Fathers determination to be successful regardless of the racism he faced as a immigrate!

What was the Americanized version like?

What is your other half?

Are you disappointed? Don't be. This is our
culture, and it is almost impossible for any
culture to be disappointing.

You can learn it! I have been teaching my second graders simple steps and they want harder ones now! BELIEVE!

Could you please tell me the name of this piece of music, the artist, and the name of the recording? I am a music teacher in Hong Kong and would like to use this in a presentation about music from the Philippines. THIS IS GREAT!

I'm not sure why someone sent me this video. Maybe it was a joke.

I wish I had tried this when I was younger. I'am half Ilocano and remember this dance at all the fiestas here in the US. I plan on visiting My fathers home in 2009 maybe if I drink enough Basi I will try it!

OMG! I love watching people do tinikling. Me and my sister would use to take the ends of broomsticks, and do tinikling in the driveway!
I wanted to do it in the talent show, but I ended up forgetting about it =P
Man, I wish I could learn it...
I'm flip by the way, so I can't be called a white person trying to be flip... :P

we had to learn this in elementary school too, but a bit more americanized version. i always knew it was a filipino dance but my classmates wouldn't believe me.

LMFAO, we had to learn that in elementary school. You know square dancing and this. I never knew where it came from. Guess the P.E. teacher was filipino.
