For the children’s university week, celebrated every February, the grade four field demonstration was Sayaw sa Bangko.

Sayaw sa Bangko

Sayaw sa Bangko or Sayaw ed Tapew ng Bangko is a folk dance from Pangasinan, a province from the northern Philippines. Performers dance on wooden benches, changing places with each other and at times jumping on and off the bench.

The son is wearing shoes, the pair of slippers which was prepared earlier was forgotten, 😀

Balance and helping each other to stay on the bench is important for the two dancers on the bench.
