1. What is the significant of common dance steps in folk dances? And Why?
Many people enjoy learning basic steps in folk dance in order to participate in
either a social or religious tradition, or sometimes just to get some exercise.
Whatever your reason for learning, folk dancing is a fun form of movement that
involves dancers from all ages and backgrounds. People think folk dances are
important because they help keep a culture alive. People have been doing folk
dances for hundreds of years, and there is value keeping that tradition alive.
Folk dances are important because they preserve the Philippine culture and pass
it on to the next generation. They are a uniting force to the Philippine people.
Philippine folk dance helps keep the people connected to their ancestry and their
traditions. Folk dance helps to preserve the cultural unity of the people.
1. How common dance steps can help in every folk dances in the Philippines?
Philippine dance has played a tremendous role in Filipino culture. From one of the oldest
dated dances called the Tinikling, to other folkloric dances such as the Pandanggo,
Cariñosa, and Subli, and even to more modern-day dances like the ballet, it is no doubt
that dance in the Philippine setting has integrated itself in society over the course of
many years and is significantly imbedded in culture. Each of these dances originated in
a unique way and serve a certain purpose, showcasing how diverse Philippine dances
are.

Reflection or Insights:
Dance terms in general make it easier to learn and understand choreography. It’s like a code
language for dance. Folk dance is community dancing. Some folk dances have partners (this
would include square dancing), but the purpose of folk dancing is reinforcement of the
community. The other kinds of dancing include social dancing (that is, couples dancing) which is
a form of courtship, and presentational dancing (such as ballet or Flamenco), which is performed
for an audience. I have nothing to write and my brain is drained. So this is all.
