  • its ok to use tribal dances as inspiration... but you should consider how these dances were developed and the culture they represent.. hindi pwede na palaging "FOR ART'S SAKE" or "FOR CREATIVITY / UNIQUENESS'S SAKE".

  • shame!!!! use your own music and gong. you know gangsa (gong) then use it then solibaw,,,,lolz

  • VERY SHAMEFUL! in you tube when u type "traditional Chinese dance" in "search", lots of AUTHENTIC Chinese dances appear (and they are also beautiful!). you can't see any comment "Hey i'm Chinese and we dont dance like that!..." because THEY REALLY ARE OWNED BY THEM. unlike most Filipinos who have the nerves to tag their posts "Igorot tribal dance" which does not belong to them and NEITHER PERFORMED RIGHT! YOU PEOPLE SHOULD WEAR YOUR OWN "BARONG TAGALOG AND SAYA'T PINYA" THEN USE UR OWN!

  • my "blood brothers and sisters" i am not astonished by this corruptions anymore in my years of surfing in the internet...i grew up in manila but still full blooded and proud to belong from the kankana-ey tribe...i used to ask my mom about our traditions and she even tells that when they dance it has strict forms. most filipinos will not honor it anyway due to lack of concern and education. my pretty sis and niece even still experience the ignorant question "igorota ka?!...ba't maputi ka?..."

  • What is this?...Igorot dance ay? Yah the costume is from cordillera, but the dance they presented is different from all the dances from cordillera, oh well maybe they developed the dance steps. Others comments here said that its pertaining to some festivities like weds/harvest/ etc, but still not in any of the cordillera dances..

  • what the heck is this? Igorot dance? not even! ugh! this makes my blood boil. and the audience! fudge!

  • Well, I applause the dancers of this dance. All I can say is never do the people of Cordillera dance like that, and about the music, its not Cordilleran. Those who said your an Igorot, from what ethnic group are you from? COMMERCIALIZED ang sayaw na to. You dont have the true essence of a Cordilleran foremost. And a question, if your are trully a Cordilleran, what tribe uses the dress that the women wore? Your a joke and I'll laugh a loud as i can if you dont know....

  • baken igorot dasa kaman, FBI ak pay baw yan nababaakan ay icordilleran maga pay nailak ay performance ay kaman dasa.. ikatin you et sa
