Tinikling is the most famous folk dance in the Philippines.
Specifically, the dance copies the movements of the native Tikling (Rallus philippensis) in trying to elude bamboo traps while feeding on rice crops. It involves two people holding alternate ends of two bamboo sticks and two dancers moving quickly inside and outside the sticks without getting ankles bruised or feet caught. It may have originated in Leyte's eastern Visayan region. Experts tend to think that the dance predates the early sixteenth century arrival of the Spaniards in the archipelago.
The Tinikling is the National Dance of the Philippines. It is also the most famous of all Filipino folk dances. There are many different ways of doing the dance and each dance troupe can adapt the steps to meet their skill level. The basic concept of the dance is to hop between bamboo poles that are being clapped together in rhythm to the music. The trick is to keep from getting your feet caught between the poles.
