Yenno - I watch these dances a lot, and for years. This lady is probably one of the top two princesses I’ve ever seen. Her steps are so graceful - lots of other princesses try to look “fierce” but truly the best princesses make this dance look effortless. Combined with her fan fluidity, and her posture - chin up, chest out and shoulders back, she just absolutely eats up the stage. Amazing work by everyone!
The best singkil performance I’ve seen so far. And that music makes you want to dance as well.
Singkil, a Filipino Muslim dance.one of the most skillful daces in the world.....it just makes me proud of being a Filipino :)
This is not a religious dance. This is a TRULY Filipino dance. PRE COLONIAL!
Correct! Singkil is a dance of the Maranaws before they were converted to the Islamic Faith.
i really like the way this woman waves her fans....it totally blew me away.her dancing was so full of elegance....proud to be pinoy...
omg so wonderful i love this dance #Philippines is TALENTED
yes
this is my favortie singkil so far!
I think it's cool that we filipinos celebrate our precolonial history just as much as our more modern history
omg awsome!! this is def what i like to see!!
I like the costumes.very maranaw.
thanks for sharing this video! =) super love it!
i also perform like this as raja solaiman.during my school time.
Proudly Maranao .

@pricofilipinaamerica: From what I heard, they have these costumes made in the Philippines and some done in LA.
I'm glad you liked it!
as a maranao i say this is a good rendition of our singkil. only the costume of the princess and the umbrella bearer is not maranao.
This proves that we are asian!
astig.
I was wondering what song did you use in this dance?
@pricofilipinaamerica: they usually perform here in L.A.. Let me ask if they travel to St. Louis.

Also, I was wanting to make the head dress for the sigkil outfit, my little sister is doing a cutural day at her school so im hand making her a malong, buying her ankle bells, and maybe some big gold braclets to go with it (just to give it some pizzaz lol) and i want to make her the head dress with the bird on it? do u knw where i can buy one? or purchase materials to hand make one? thanks. Also I was wondering if u knew why the bird is used as the head dress what is the significance?
@imascreations Do you know where i can purchase the outfits? I would like to buy one in orange and blue =)
yan ang aking sectoin singkil
How is it a muslim dance are they performing an islamic ritual? It's not a Muslim dance it's a royal dance. Tinkling is not a Christian dance is it!
Het ismij Tinikling as a different version since it's about filipino christians but Singkil is of muslim origin via Maranao that tells about the Darangen...both uses the bamboo poles.
+nOnOy borbun this dance have show similarity with malanao dance in sarawak
The Darangen epic is not Muslim. It's a local retelling of the Ramayana. It originated long before Islam arrived to the Philippines, when the Philippines was still under the considerable cultural influence of the Hindu empires of South and Southeast Asia (Borobudur and the dances of Bali are other traces of this influence elsewhere).
This is why versions of the epic also exist among non-Muslim neighboring Lumad tribes in Mindanao. Both the epic and the dance were performed simply for entertainment. There are NO religious connotations to the epic or the dance, at all.
+Rembrandt Van Gogh Darangen is not Islam. It is the Maranao interpretation and version of Ramayana, a Hindu epic. Philippines was once heavily influenced by India and Sri Vijayan empire and was a part of the Majapait empire for a time, way before the Arab missionaries introduced Islam.
yamatonadeshiko567 A mistype. Thanks for pointing that out and I did mean Hinduism.
this is a meranao dance or muslim dance of mindanao
Islam or being a Muslim has NOTHING to do with SINGKIL. That dance is the only cultural practice based on an epic celebrating the triumph of love over evil, which was already in place long before the Maranaws were converted into the Islamic faith.
Servants shouldn't be wearing long veil. But up to their necks.
Het ismij Oo nga mali, the ladies in waiting or entourage should be wearing shorter veils, different to the princess.
@SuperMarcGerard its not a muslim dance its a dance of people of southern filipinos. It has nothing to do with islam, if anything its a dance about the ramayan voyages of lord ram and his wife sita. just a filipino remake.
You can google Singkil to know the story, and although it has its trace in Hindu, this dance is a depiction of the Darangen epic of Maranao, the inhabitants of Lake Lanao. The princess is Potri Gandingan and the prince is Datu Bantugan.
this is wrong dance
