Pandanggo sa Ilaw Dance

Pandanngo sa Ilaw is a popular dance of grace and balance comes from Lubang Island, Mindoro in the Visayas region. The term pandanggo comes from the Spanish word fandango, which is a dance characterized by lively steps and clapping that varies in rhythm in three-four time. This particular pandanggo involves the presence of three tinggoy, or oil lamps, balanced on the head and the back of each hand.

  1. this was supposed to be the dance we were planning to present and i practiced a lot at home.. but i got really disappointed to know that it was changed because many complained that it was difficult bringing those oil lamps.. but it's ok.. i would just practice for the new dance steps we've made..

    I learned that when making a dance, we should need teamwork and we also need to believe in ourselves.
