- La Manila Dance Ambassadors and Rondalla's (LMDAR) Balse Marikina for "Saludo, Pilipino!" Anniversary Concert 2022
Balse was a popular dance in Marikina, Rizal during the Spanish times. This dance was performed after the lutrina.
Traditionally, the lutrina is usually held when people of a certain community suffer from a long dry season or pestilence of any kind. The participants carry lighted candles and they pray along the way with a statue of their patron saint.
After the procession, the participants gather at the house or yard of the Hermana and the bags of foods are distributed to them. During refreshments or after it, there is dancing and singing by the people gathered there.
