I tried to teach my buddies and the kids in the farm so the next generation will not forget our culture.
Tinikling is the National Dance of the Philippines.
The term “Tinikling” translates to “to be/perform like tikling”. Which is a local bird in the Visayas islands under the rail bird species, specifically the slaty-breasted rail (Gallirallus striatus), the buff-banded rail (Gallirallus philippensis), and the barred rail (Gallirallus torquatus).
The dance originated in Leyte. It was created in the likeness of how the tikling birds walk and jump over branches as well as dodge traps set by farmers with its long stilt-like legs.
