Dance Repertoire

Hi everyone! I'm posting the dance repertoire for our dance in Intramuros, Manila. These dances will be performed by the Local Government Unit workers and the Gingoog Sining Choreographers Association which includes me as one of the choreographers. Actually, the performers are supposed to be the Local Gov't Unit (LGU) workers only but the city Tourism need trainors for them to participate and represent Region X to Intramuros, Manila for the Wow Philippines Tourism week this coming June 4-9, 2009. That is one reason why our group, Gingoog Sining Foundation was included even if we are not employed in our local government for the reason that we, our group was the one who studied and learned the authenticity of the tribal or ethnic dance steps in the mountains.

The following are the composition of our dances:
