A. How does traditional and folk dances give empowerment to the culture
of its different origins such as provinces, tribes and ethic group, and to
the country Philippines?
The term tradition and folk dances have a deeper meaning lie on it. It
speaks more than its definition. Through folk dances, it unites Filipino people
across this archipelago and it brings us to be proud of our own identity. It is
amazing to think that the folk dances that we have are unique compared to the
folk dances of other countries as well. We may have the past of being ruled by
another country but that did not stop us in making our own that is patterned
originally and authentically of Filipino lives.
It is relevant that during young age, children will have an appreciation and
knowledge about our tradition and folk dances. School is one of the institutions
that is a task to teach students of it. And as a student, we should also put our
heart in learning it, and better apply what we learned into something that can
contribute to the growth of our tradition and folk dances. Our simple way of
dancing folk dances during "Linggo ng Wika" and other school programs shows
how we showcase the rich and unique folk dances that we have and by that, it
gives an impact in awareness of students and also to their family as well.
Even in higher schools like universities and colleges they also required
students to participate and promote activities that are related to tradition and folk
dances. We, students, main purpose is to study but we must also not forget that
the capabilities that we have are needed and useful for the improvement and
empowerment of the certain culture and tradition that we belong to. The future of
our country belongs in our hands now.
