Tinikling is a traditional Philippine folk dance which originated prior to Spanish colonialism in the area. [1] The dance involves at least two people beating, tapping, and sliding bamboo poles on the ground and against each other in coordination with one or more dancers who step over and in between the poles in a dance.
The tinikling dance has evolved from what is called ‘Tinikling Ha Bayo’ which the older people claim to be a harder dance to perform. Originally, the said dance was done between bayuhan, wooden pestles used to pound husks off of rice grain. [30] Subli: Barrio of Dingin, Alitagtag, Batangas
