What is It
What is Festival Dances?
Are cultural dances performed to the strong beats of percussion instruments by a
community of people sharing the same culture usually done in honor of Patron
Saint or in Thanksgiving of a bountiful harvest. The best thing about festivals is that
they add to the merry-making and festivities where they are celebrated, the reason
why they are called festival dances after all. Festival dances draw the people’s
culture by portraying the people’s way of life through movements, costumes and
implements inherent to their place of origin. Festivals often serve to fulfill specific
communal purposes, especially in regard to commemoration or thanksgiving. The
celebrations offer a sense of belonging for religious, social, or geographical groups,
contributing to group cohesiveness. They may also provide entertainment, which
was particularly important to local communities before the advent of mass-produced
entertainment. Festivals that focus on cultural or ethnic topics also seek to inform
community members of their traditions; the involvement of elders sharing stories
and experience provides a means for unity among families.

Why do Filipinos celebrate Festivals?

diversity of cultures and we celebrate our industry bringing about a bountiful
harvest. Festivals have been a consistent crowd-producing activity leading to
upliftment of a community’s economy due to its tourism and entertainment value.

There are some other reasons also why we celebrate them?

1. Festivals bring freshness in life.

2. They remove boredom.
3. They are the source of national integration and unity.
4. They remind us our cultural values
5. They are good for an integrated nation and its unity.

 Ati-Atihan Festival of Kalibo

The Ati-Atihan Festival is held every year in January in Kalibo, the capital

of Aklan province. It is a two-week festival that ends on the third Sunday of the
month. Kalibo has been known for its Ati-Atihan before all the other neighboring
provinces started their own. The Ati-Atihan Festival of Aklan is called the “Mother of
All Filipino Festivals”.  The name of the festival means “pretending to be like an Ati.”
The Ati, also known as Negritos an indigenous people who have distinctively black
skin and curly hair. Celebrants of the Ati-atihan Festival paint their faces with black
soot. Locals who perform in the parade also wear colorful elaborate costumes. It
can be compared with Mardi Gras in other parts of the world. On account of the
historical influence of the Catholic church, the Ati-Atihan festival is said to honor
the Santo Niño (Christ Child). In fact, the name of Kalibo means “one thousand,”
which is the number of people who were baptized in a single day by early Spanish
missionaries.

The Dinagyang Festival is a religious and cultural festival in Iloilo

City, Philippines held on the 3rd Sunday of January, or right after the Sinulog in
Cebu and the Ati-Atihan Festival in Kalibo, Aklan. It is held both to honor the Santo
Niño and to celebrate the arrival on Panay of Malay settlers and the subsequent
selling of the island to them by the Atis. Dinagyang began after Rev. Fr. Ambrosio
Galindez, the first Filipino Rector of the Agustinian Community and Parish Priest of
9
the San Jose Parish introduced the devotion to Santo Niño in November 1967 after
observing the Ati-Atihan Festival in the province of Aklan .

The word Sinulog comes from the Cebuano adverb sulog which roughly

means "like water current movement;" it describes the forward-backward movement
of the Sinulog dance. The dance consists of two steps forward and one step
backward, done to the sound of drums. This movement resembles the current
(Sulog) of what was known as Cebu’s Pahina River.

The Sinulog commemorates the Filipino people's acceptance of Christianity

(specifically, Roman Catholicism), and their rejection of their former animist beliefs.
The first of these conversions happened in 1521 on the island of Cebu, when Rajah
Humabon and his queen Amihan (Humamay) were baptized along with their
subjects, becoming Carlos and Juana of Cebu.

The Pintados festival of Tacloban City is a Filipino festival with its own unique
flavor. This Pintados festival recalls Pre-Spanish history of the native Leytenos from
wars, epics and folk religions. The most expected aspect of the Pintados festival
are the festive dancers, painted from head to toe with designs that look like armor
to resemble the tattooed warriors of old. During the course of the Pintados festival,
dancers whose bodies are painted in an amazing array of colors fill the streets of
Tacloban city. At first sight, they may seem outrageous as grown men pour into the
streets decorated in such dazzling colors as luminous blue or neon green. But as
one gets used to this and sees the dances depicted, one gets a glimpse of the
history of the people that once lived on the islands of Leyte so long ago.
10
 The folk dances presented by the dancers portray the many traditions that
flourished before the Spaniards came. These include worship of idols, indigenous
music and epic stories. The hypnotic rhythms of native instruments beat through the
air accompanying the dances performed on the streets as the Pintados festival
goes. Aside from the folk dances, is the much likely parade, which crisscrosses the
avenues of Tacloban city. The parade traditionally begins at the Balayuan Towers
and proceeds throughout Tacloban Leyte city. The surprised spectators follow the
procession of dancing colors from the beginning to end. The Pintados festival
concludes in much merrymaking with a signature traditional Filipino fiesta, where
everyone is invited to join the fun and celebrate the Pintados Festival.

"The Longganisa Festival marks the opening of a year-long cultural

celebration in Vigan." Longganisa Festival is the first festivity celebrated in Vigan
every year which usually happens every 22nd of January, the date of the cityhood
of Vigan. However, Januray 25 is the exact date of the Vigan City fiesta, also the
date of the conversion of the city's patron saint, St. Paul. Vigan is a popular tourist
destination because of its museums and architecture. Still, it is also known for its
longganisa which is a local kind of salami. The dish is made in accordance with a
century-old tradition and has a truly unique taste. Although there were several tries
to replicate the combination of sliced spicy meat, sugarcane vinegar, and garlic, no
one can compete with local chefs. In late January, the Vigan celebrates City Fiesta
and Longganisa Festival is included in the festive program. It's normally celebrated
around January 22nd to January 25th—the dates vary from year to year. During the
festival, every tourist has a chance to try authentic longganisa from Vigan. Usually,
local people eat salami for breakfast but the food itself is too good to be eaten
during the morning hours only.

Some Secular/Non- Religious Festivals
 https://tinyurl.com/yavfdchp

Ibon-Ebon Festival
Ibon-Ebon Festival, also called “Birds and Eggs Festival,” is a celebration
held during the first and second days of February in Candaba, Pampanga. It was
first celebrated on February 1 and 2 in 1998 and has been running successfully up
to now. This festival is also a celebration for another year of bountiful harvest. The
main features of the festival are the migratory birds. These wandering birds not just
promote Candaba but also advocate tourism in the Philippines.

This festivity is dedicated to the famous Candaba Swamp that serves as a

home of almost 14,000 kinds of nomadic birds belonging to over 40 avian species.
They gather each year in the swamp as a stopover before continuing their travel to
the different parts of the world. This natural bird haven in the Philippines is one of
the top tourist destinations, especially for bird lovers. During the migratory season,
bird watchers flock the Candaba Swamp just in time for the multitude of birds
landing in the area. The street dance competition takes the challenge to the next
level as it releases a theme – performers should include in their choreography the
imitations of bird movements. Dancers flap their arms and bob their heads as if
they are possessed by a lovely bird spirit. They also wear multicolored and
fabulous costumes to brighten the festival. After the parade, awards are given to
the groups with the best costumes and most amazing performances.

Bangus Festival
12
 The Bangus Festival is an annual celebration in the city of Dagupan.  It
highlights the city’s rich milk fish aquaculture industry in the province of Pangasinan
and in the country. The city of Dagupan is an independent component city created
by virtue of Republic Act No 170 signed by President Manuel Roxas on June 20,
1947. The city’s name was derived from the local dialect word “pandaragupan”
meaning a gathering since the city has been for centuries the regional market
center in particular the Ilocos Region or Region 1. On the 3 rd of May 2003, the
populace of Dagupan City created an event as part of the Bangus Festival, the
longest grilled “bangus” street party measuring 1,007.56 meters (3,305.6 feet).  It
broke Canchia’s, Peru 613 meters (2.011 feet long record set in November 1999. 
Hence, the city gained the Guinness World Record of the longest barbecued grill
worldwide.

Panagbenga Festival
Panagbenga festival (English: Flower Festival) is a month-long annual
flower festival occurring in Baguio. The term is of Kankanaey origin, meaning
"season of blooming". The festival, held during the month of February, was created
as a tribute to the city's flowers and as a way to rise up from the devastation of
the 1990 Luzon earthquake. The festival includes floats that are covered mostly
with flowers not unlike those used in Pasadena's Rose Parade. The festival also
includes street dancing, presented by dancers clad in flower costumes that is
inspired by the Bendian, an Ibaloi dance of celebration that came from
the Cordillera region.
Aside from boosting the economy through tourism, the festival also helped the
younger generation of indigenous people to rediscover their culture's old traditions.
The indigenous people were first wary with government-led tourism because of the
threat that they will interfere or change their communities' rituals. In 1996, archivist
and curator Iike Picpican suggested that the festival be renamed as Panagbenga,
a Kankanaey term that means "a season of blossoming, a time for flowering"

5 Target Heart Rate

Dancing is also a way of achieving your physical fitness. Dancing,

regardless of the style, is an exercise which contributes to an individual's
physical health. Just as how important festival dances are to physical
fitness, physical fitness is also important to festival dances. In order to
perform more effectively, you need to be physically fit because after all,
these dances are performed whole-heartedly as it is a celebration of
sacred events

What’s In 20

Activity 1: “Healthy Heart”

Directions: List down at least 5 physical activities that keeps your heart healthy.
 What’s New
Activity 2: “Venn Diagram”

Directions: List down the physical activities of your family before and during the
pandemic (Covid-19). In the space where the two circles meet, write their
similarities

Guide questions:
1. How will you describe your family's physical activity before and during the
pandemic?
2. What activity did you do to keep you physically healthy during Enhance
Community Quarantine (ECQ) up to this moment?
3. How did you assess your physical activity during the pandemic?

What is It
In this lesson, you will be provided with a review on the implication of
Dancing activity to your fitness by way of determining your range of Target
Heart Rate.
This is how you determine your THR (Target Heart Rate) range. Follow the
steps provided and you will arrive at your own PMHR and THR which you
can use in determining the intensity of your dancing activity and raising it to
the high level if necessary.

Step 1. Find your Personal Maximal Heart Rate (PMHR) in beats per minute
by subtracting your age from 220.
PMHR= 220 - your age
Let’s find the PMHR of a 14 years old student.
Example:
PMHR= 220-14
21
= 206 is the PMHR of a 14 years old student

Step 2. You need to work out your lowest Target Heart Rate that you need to
aim for during exercise by multiplying your PMHR by 60%.
 PMHR x 60%= Lowest Target Heart Rate
Example: 206 x .6= 123.6 beats per minute (Lowest THR of a 14 years old)

Step 3. Lastly, you need to work out for your Highest Target Heart Rate that
you can aim for during exercise by multiplying your PMHR by 8O%(or .8)
PMHR x 8O%= Highest Target Heart Rate

Example: 206 x .8 = 164.8 beats per minute (Highest THR of a 14 years old)

So, in the example given, the Target Heart Rate of a 14 years old individual
is from 123.6 to 164. 8 beats per minute during exercise. So, when you are
dancing, you are aiming for the range of the two figures to come up with in Step
and 3. To maximize the benefits you can derive from social dancing, in relation to
cardio-vascular fitness, you need to know your Target Heart Rate Range.

What I Have Learned

Directions: Answer the following questions in your activity notebook.
1. Perform your “tiktok” dance from the previous activity three times with the music.
2. Stop and get your heart rate by placing your middle and pointing fingers in your
pulse rate located at your wrist. In 15 minutes, take/count your pulse. Multiply it by
4.
3. So, have you reached your minimum THR? If not yet, 5 repetitions is enough. Dance
more!
4. Do the same process in getting your THR.
Processing Questions:
1. How essential is knowing how to get
your THR range?
2. How can festival dancing contribute to
a healthier lifestyle?
