II. DEVELOPMENT OF CONCEPT:
Nature of the Different Dances
Dance is an expression of the body, following rhythmic patterns and is accompanied by music. From
the primitive man expressing emotions in such events as birth, death, marriage, war among other things,
dance has evolved to modern forms of social dancing.
These are the different forms of dance:
Traditional (Folk and Ethnic)
Traditional dances are dances of indigenous communities that show cultural traits of people in
specific time and place. Customs and traditions through dance steps and costumes are preserved in
traditional dance. These dances are handed down from generation to generation, with fixed sets or patterns.
Ethnic dances are classified into two major categories. First, the dances of the Non-Christian
Filipinos are made up to the pagan groups and the Muslim groups. Second, there are the dances of the
Christian and the lowland Filipinos, some of which are comprised of savage and vigorous or light-hearted.
Other forms have neither music nor melodic accompaniment. Some examples are the dances of the aetas
and that of the Muslims
Folk dances area classified according to geographical locations and the nature of the dances.
According to geographical locations, folk dances can be national (dances with common basic movements,
with slight variations) or local/regional (dances that are unique to certain localities only). According to the
1
nature of dance, folk dances can be: occupational dances, religious or ceremonial dances; courtship dances;
wedding dances; festival dances; war dances; comic dances; game dances; and social dances.
Modern and Contemporary
Modern dance is a development that is less formal that a classical ballet. Contemporary dance
incorporates the strong legwork and balance of ballet and the trunk movements of modern dance.
Ballroom Dances
Ballroom dances comprise of a number of different dances. There are two categories: In American
style, the categories are called Smooth and Rhythm and in International style they are called Standard and
Latin. For the most part, the Standard and Smooth categories contain the same dances and the Latin and
Rhythm categories contain basically the same dances. These are listed in the order that they are danced in
competitions. These are the waltz, the polka, the tango, the faxtrot, the swing, the rumba, the quick step, the
paso double, the samba, the mambo, the cha cha, and the jive.
Cheer Dance
As the name implies, cheer dance is a combination of cheering and dancing. Components include
the mandatory cheer as well as a number of gymnastic or acrobatic moves such as cartwheels and back
hand springs. The purpose of cheer dance is usually to motivate sports teams, entertain audience, or the
actual competition.
Hip Hop/ Street Dance
Hip hop or Street dance has its roots traced to New York, from the African American and Latino
American communities. It is usually associated with rap music, a form of chanting or poetry delivered at the
speed of 16-bar measures (time frame). The term hip-hop refers to a complex culture compromising four
elements: deejaying or “turntabling”; rapping, also known as “MCing” or “rhyming”; grafitti painting, also
known as “graf” or “writing”; and “B-boying,” which encompasses hip-hop dance, style, and attitude, along
with the sort of virile body language that Cornel West described as “postural semantics.” (A fifth element,
“knowledge of self/consciousness,” is sometimes added to the list of hip-hop elements, particularly by
socially conscious hip-hop artists and scholars.)
Festival Dance
Festival dances are seen during celebrations or fiestas. Usually, festival dances celebrate good
harvest or good fortune. An event ordinarily celebrated by a community and centering on some characteristic
aspect of that community and its religion or cultures.
