Tinikling
I am both in awe of their rhythm and if fear dor their ankles. *chef’s kiss*
I learned how to dance something similar to this in the third grade. in Cambodia it’s called the Pestle Dance, and it is WAY slower than this, and it is still REALLY hard to do the turny bits without getting your ankles banged up. it was my least favorite dance to learn because it hurts like a bitch when your foot gets caught. that is god-tierlevels of talent.
I‘m so happy to see traditional Filipino dances being hyped up here! I grew up watching these dances everywhere and have even seen diaspora kids dance hip hop ON TOP of doing the tinikling dance
Tinikling irog ko ❤️ this is one of those things that’s simple in theory but actually really really hard to do and these kids are amazing
That is socool
it’s nice to see a bit of my culture here <3
