Their performance for this year ALMOST got all the boxes checked, knowing that Sir Jojin and the people behind the success of Sinanduloy teamed up with Mandaue City. However, I've set my expectations too high & that the dancers didn't reached it (which is very understandable because many of them are newbies, I guess?) They lacked on grace and elegance (there is always room for improvements, as a festival/folk dancer, I started as a novice man pud 😊). I wanted to see MORE while watching them perform in street dancing where I could see a closer glimpse to their moves but as per observation, they needed more time for perfecting "papitik sa candles and performing more gracefully." Musicality ✅ Choreography ✅ Storyline ✅ Dancers, gamay nalang gyud kulang para 100 But over all, Mandaue City team did a great job gyud! Kudos to you guys 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
