Come by the LSC Theatre on April 4th for free demonstration and instruction in Tinikling! Tinikling is a traditional Philippine folk dance which originated during the Spanish colonial era. The dance involves at least two people beating, tapping, and sliding bamboo poles on the ground and against each other in coordination with one or more dancers who step over and in between the poles in a dance. It is traditionally danced to rondalla music, a sort of serenade played by an ensemble of stringed instruments which originated in Spain during the Middle Ages. Alongside the Cariñosa dance, the Tinikling is considered a national dance in the Philippines.
