What is Dance?
Dancing is a form of expression of oneself through rhythmic movement. It is based on
natural walking steps forward and backwards. If this can be achieved with balance,
control and small steps, the actual figures will feel and look natural and rhythmic. So it
is best to study and work on the recommended exercises before working on the figures.
It is also defined as an inner impulse of man to rhythm or music expressing his feeling of
joy, moods, sentiments or any human experience.
What is Indigenous?
It is produced, growing, living or occurring naturally in a particular region or
environment. It is somewhat called inborn and native.
What is Ethnic?
Dances belonging to group without Western influences. In pre-colonial days, pagan rites
were practiced all over the islands. Animistic rituals to celebrate planting, harvest, birth,
death, and all kinds of community activity were common occurrences.
History of Maglalatik
During the Spanish regime, the present barrios of Loma and Zapote of Bian, Laguna,
were separated. With coconut shells as implements the people of these two barrios
danced the Maglalatik, or Magbabao, a war dance depicting a fight between the
Moros and the Christians over the latik (residue left after the coconut milk has been
boiled). The first two parts of the dance, the Palipasan and the Baligtaran show the
heated encounter between the two groups. The last two parts, the Paseo and
the Sayaw Escaramusa show the reconciliation between the two groups. According to
the legend the Moros came out victorious, thus getting the coveted latik. The Christians,
not contented with the result of the war, sent an envoy to the Moros to offer peace and
to baptize them. The best Maglalatik dancers are found in Zapote. In the daytime during
the town fiesta of Bian, the Maglalatik dancers go from house to house performing this
dance for money or a gift. In the evening they dance Maglalatik in the religious
procession as it moves along the streets. They perform the dance as an offering to the
patron saint of the farmers, San Isidro de Labrador.
The Maglalatik is an indigenous dance from the Philippines in which coconut shell halves
that are secured onto the dancers hands and on vests upon which are hung four or six
more coconut shell halves. The dancers- all male- perform the dance by hitting one
coconut shell with the other- sometimes the ones on the hands, sometimes the ones on
the body, and sometimes the shells worn by another performer all in time to a fast
drumbeat.
