Seventh Grade Girls-Tinikling (2014)

[@chloehotness]

the beat of the wood poles, which are not even bamboo, reminds me of "we will rock you"... cute :)

[@youhaveaswollenheadbtw2325]

Even “believer”

[@gabriella.vmendez-matre8436]

why are they wearing socks? they could slip fall and mess up and injure them self

[@TjSamson]

Never wear socks during Tinikling especially if the performance is in a basketball floor. Luckly the dance is just basic.

[@mylucknineely-morales1424]

Yes i think theres a higher chance of slipping

[@lekihmaonirdelarosa1469]

Our traditional dance is so famous now even foreigners dancing it.I remember when im in 7th grade, i injured my right foot because of that dance but why they did it perfectly 😭😭😭 I am so jealous right now.

[@c.p.5167]

It's been known in the United States since at least the mid-1970s; I learned it as part of our Physical Education class in elementary school.

[@bigred6815]

Don’t feel bad. The dance still looks best when it’s done by your culture. We were doing it in Abilene,Texas in the early 60s. Our school was culturally diverse because we were part of Dyess Air Force Base. Very bad idea to wear socks

[@MusicWithAngelosante]

Yes, sadly they are not correctly tapping in 3/4 time rhythm, but rather in 2/4 and it ends up sounding like "we will rock you" But other than that, they did a wonderfully committed and focused job

[@belcoy68]

I graduated my studies from High School to College as a Dance troupe scholar, I’m proud to say that other nations recognize this dance as this is one of the many “Pilipino skill folk dances” that we have. It’s not easy congratulations to these students for their patience to be able to learn the steps of Tinikling. Good grades for these kids!

[@Chelwave]

First: why socks Second: this is off beat Third: at least they got the basics

[@whatalsaid]

Very cool to see Filipino culture catching on, but I wouldn't recommend socks on a gym floor during what is a very fast paced dance. Would be safer if they kept their shoes on.

[@davevillas7397]

I got offended that these 7th graders are taller than me and most 11th and 12th graders in my country🇵🇭🤣🤣🤣

[@richardwilson1673]

We will we will we will rock you

[@cynthiaarons9373]

Very good but, must not be danced with socks unless the socks have rubber grip underneath.

[@noelflores6865]

Parang easy lng pero mahirap sayawin....

[@mildredcrowl5254]

Great job ❤❤❤

[@phoebeshirasawa4959]

ive been practicing tinikling when I was 4 then im great in it philipines and im half philipines half german n japanese

[@phoebeshirasawa4959]

the song is all wrong

[@kenmaslefteyeball7085]

It is ._. who knows their teachers probably made it different

[@smashynoa3046]

Their doing it wrong 1.They are not using barefoot they are using socks 2.They are not continuing the dance they stop after they go to the edge 3. It must be hardcore 4. AND They are looking at the floor 5. Some of them have mistakes 6. The dance isn't good enough and its not proper 7. The bamboo beats is wrong

[@cholodelrosari0543]

Here in Philippines, if you look down at the floor, your final score would be deducted. Well, that depends if your PE Teacher is too strict

[@ivanmarkpadilla4810]

bad, the bamboo beat should be with the music

[@alvin6188]

the rhythm or beat is like american style

[@erikmichael3493]

That's great! Great exercise for the kids as well.

[@unitersgalaxzmiddleeast1486]

I tried this before hahaha but sadly hit my feet, hahaa it's so nice dance look interesting cuz of bamboo

[@rodels.3745]

Looks like the beat of the bamboos doesnt match the music

[@maayongaga729]

Hahaha..great performance. From Pinoy

[@marcx_vlog9328]

Filipino not wearing socks while dancing "Tinikling" very dangerous .And also they are using coco Lumber very dangerous..

[@yelenaalcones4610]

Very good

[@binokk_1]

I tried this with my friends...then i realized that shouldn't have tried this with idiots cuz they will break ur ankles.;-;

[@johndavebautista8594]

We were we were rock you!

[@janah.2940]

wrong beat, never wear socks. overall, it's an okay performance

[@vib3nyc244]

Ok but how do u dance dis-

[@altheuspantajo4213]

They.are.so.tall.

[@reyvanbueno9298]

Tinikling song in English? Woah!!!

[@dulseporree8280]

That Sport dance

[@JR-pp2xc]

Do Americans have Cultural sensitivity in their curriculum? Dufffccc

[@unconventionallife7036]

Im surprised nobody slipped! It's better dancing tinikling bare foot. It's dangerous with socks.

[@sssstgump]

really apreciate them trying but I think the rhythm is all wrong. but fun to watch though

[@dulseporree8280]

Nice keep going. Kids

[@sarahmjoya]

Wait a minute this isn’t how you do tinikling. In The real dance, you always move your legs and feet even when outside the poles. And that’s not the traditional music for tinikling

[@beeagutal5654]

The beat of the wood is we will rock you.. Doesn't match the background music.

[@artsysshenanigans1289]

at first i honestly thought 'oh cute, even foreigners are doing our traditional dance now', but really? Y'all could have at least TRIED to respect our culture and do it right. This sucks a little, not gonna lie. No hate to the kids, they don't know what they're doing, but whoever thought this was a good idea needs to think harder. A lot was done incorrectly; the beat, the outfits, the music????? You shouldn't mess around with culture like this. It's all fun and smiles, but only when you do it correctly.... honestly, this feels mildly disrespectful...

[@mightytiaco7747]

We will rock you lol

[@agoroyagoroy517]

this is obviously a practicom

[@lauralifeleaf]

dude, i see me

[@maridolesquilona8212]
