This is the proof that Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia has one culture root. We have almost similarity in dancing, clothing and traditional music 👍
Yes! And don’t forget Brunei and Taiwan! They share the same indigenous roots as us. I was shocked to see that the natives of Taiwan looks just like us and had the same cultural dance. Also, we are related to Polynesian people. We share the same cultural tattoos as well. It’s so crazy that we’ve all become so separate but still have some common language and tradition.

Singkil is the Filipino version of the Ramayana, the story of God Ram (Hindu, Indian god). The reason for it being from India is because prior to the Spanish colonialistion, philippines was heavily Indianised and used to have Hinduism mixed with folk religion as its religion
@@kharlmichaelpura371 yes, exactly. All south east asian countries and even east asian countries have a lot of Indian influence since 1500-2000 years ago. It is most apparent in Thailand and Indonesia though, since they are extremely proud of their history and culture, but Malaysia doesn't like it's Hindu past since it's borderline radicalized islamic nation now. As for Philipines, Spanish colonialists were famous for brutal forced conversions and supressing indegenous cultures(more so in Mexico and south america, where all of Mayan books and knowledge was destroyed). Hence, the influences in Philipines decreased. Singkil is the filipino Ramayana, a story of God Ram (who is born as a human) whose wife is kidnapped by a demon king who takes her thousands of kilometres away to his kingdom and he raises an army of apes to defeat the demon king and get his wife back. Singkil initially showed the prince and princess as gods, and other religious things too, however after the region where it is performed became Muslim, they changed the gods to humans so that it doesn't clash with their religion. Extra fact: Thai kings have the title " Rama" because Lord Ram was considered the perfect ruler and perfect man( he was a prince in exile when his wife was kidnapped and later became king when his exile of 14 years was over.)
@@hardekailawadi You are correct Philippines was Indianized, however, it wasn't fully Indianized or Islamized. The powerful kingdoms were majority Hindu-Buddhist and Islamic. The majority of the archipelago though was Animistic, they believed in Anito or Dayaw.
bakit ba sobrang humaling ko sa sayaw na ito? marahil sa nakaraan kong buhay ay isa akong maranao. i always get emotional kapag nakakanood ako ng sayaw na ito and there's also an excitement i felt to watch them dance.
Not an expert in Singkil but have viewed a lot. This one gets a nod and a full thumbs up. Why? the choreography is simple. Good dynamics; starts slow then fast and climatic, and ends restfully. You get to see each element stand out effectively, the damas get a chance to show their skills on the bamboo too, the gamelan music(kulintang) and the gongs have a moment and the prince and the princes recap the whole ensemble taking turns crisscrossing the double twin bamboo poles which i haven't seen in other choreographies. This one Similar to the one created by Bayanihan Philippines and its really good.
I think this dance actually represents the truly culture of Philippines. Cuz, I think, the previous culture of Philippines influenced by the West to much. This dance share a lot similarities with another Malay and Nusantara cultures.
It represents a part of Precolonial Philippines, not entirety. The reason being is because the powerful kingdoms were Hindu-Buddhist and Islamic. The majority of the archipelago though was Animistic, they believed in Anito or Dayaw.
My Mother Is Also A Dancer In Nayong Pilipino Since 1990 to 2004 i remember when i was a child i've watching my mother dancing all Philippine Folk Dance in Nayong Pilipino Dance Troup I miss It :)
Hi Ian, greetings to your mother! We still have all the videos from that day (8 dances are still to be edited). Not a single one will go missing .... the dance group was the reason why we do this. At some point I'll find time, then the next dance videos will come .... I can't promise anything, only that all 8 dances are safely stored and will find their way on TH-cam sometime whenever. In any case, none of her efforts will be lost.
This dance is from Pre-colonial Philippines. No Europeans have set foot even had any association with Southeast Asia. Back then, Philippines wasn't so different from Indonesia and Malaysia. The Europeans changed a lot of Philippine culture. Malaysia, Indonesia and Philippines had close ties with each other and traded often, resulting in some shared culture. Filipinos used to be Muslims, like the Indonesians and Malaysians. If you look closely at the props, you'll notice the man carrying a curvy sword, called the 'Kris'. The Malays and Indonesians still have them, but Filipinos don't anymore. This dance is what's left of the shared culture between Philippines and the Malay Archipelago.
basically yes.. even our native language.. not the filipino.. have a similarity with them.. regarding the traditional..sword you can find.. it in our tribe.. my father still keep one..
Maiden Malice its from the Hindu epic Ramayana. The trees falling (bamboo clapping) are when Maharadja Lawana (the demon king Rahwana in hinduism) tried to trap Putri Langkawi (Sita) between falling trees as she tried to escape him by gracefully avoiding them. If you want to see just how sophisticated and rich the Ramayana traditions could have been performed by pre-Hispanic Filipinos, its best to see the Ramayana theatre of Indonesia (Javanese and Balinese) and Cambodia. The Maranao, Tausug etc have preserved the repertoire the best way they could (in snippets only), as the Spanish made them poorer due to cutting off their trade links while simultaneously attacking them to gain a foothold of the sultanate as. Because of this, the old high cultures of the Maranao and Tausug changed to a more military village based culture, and coincidentally they became more islamised than before the Spanish came, (they saw themselves more as part of the Islamic world in reaction to Spanish hostility towards the Bangsamoro). The islamisation had cut off a lot of the sacred parts of the Ramayana and changed what was depicted (in Islam, you cannot depict things that don't have its base in Islam, as it's seen as apostasy, so many things had to be changed, including the clothing, and the roles of the main characters of the Ramayana, who were no longer seen as royal dewi (diwata), but mere human beings). This cut the Bangsamoro off from the Hindu Buddhist beliefs of their ancestors. By contrast, the Javanese despite being Muslim on the surface, kept their Hindu Buddhist culture fully intact, as there were no pressures by their colonisers (the Dutch) to convert to Christianity or westernise their culture. In this case, the Philippines drew the short straw of history as far as colonisers were concerned.
Maiden Malice Correct. A Filipino myself, studied the cultures and history of the Philippines in Middle School or like in Elementary. People wayback with Malay culture are called Borneos.
Why the is the Princess barefooted? The "singkil" is the anklet that is worn by the Princess and it's missing. That's where the name of the dance came from.
Galing! sabay sabay sila. Very proud pinoy here. I think they could improve their costume. Example yung payong, parang payong ng pang kindergarten. Haha. But, I can't complain with the dance skill.
This dance, in my opinion, best captures the essence of Philippine culture. I believe that the Western countries had an influence on the Philippines' ancient culture. This dance, in my opinion, ought to be the national anthem of the Philippines because it exemplifies the splendor of our national identity. I believe that the Western countries had an influence on the Philippines' ancient culture. This dance, in my opinion, ought to serve as our national anthem because it beautifully displays our heritage.
I dropped a like at this video because we followed these steps for our project and we won we had the highest score because of this dance thank you very much!
I just want to correct some of the comments as to not cause confusion. Yes, Precolonial Philippines were Indianized or Islamized but not the entirety. The powerful more advanced kingdoms were majority Hindu-Buddhist and Islamic. However, the rest of the archipelago were Animistic, they believed in Anito or Dayaw. This Animistic belief was more prominent when tattooing was a thing in the archipelago. However, due to Hindu-Buddhism and Islam influencing some ethnolinguistic tribes tattooing was declining within some tribes (Tagalog and Maranao). When Europeans arrived a lot of the religions and beliefs got replaced with Catholicism.
Omygosh- i just remember that ma and my classmate dance this and it really went perfect And im the girl holding a umbrella. We actually got the 1 place. Imiss going to school Love the perfection of the dance
Sherwin Celeste doesn't matter what religion, cariñosa is just so plain, even though it's elegant. Singkil on the other hand is exotic and just fabulous in it's form and music.
@@SherwinCeleste-cj7ng religion isn't a point, is about the traditions of our country. Myself, as a very fanatic traditionalist Catholic (yet I'm a good sinner), I do respect the Filipinos who still have the pre-colonial culture like the Igorots, Bangsamoro, T'boli and many others.
@@SherwinCeleste-cj7ng this is Hindu inspired not Muslim. Also it doesn't matter if it's Muslim or Hindu since Catholicism was only shoved at the throats of our ancestors

Singkil is the Filipino version of the Ramayana, the story of God Ram (Hindu, Indian god). The reason for it being from India is because prior to the Spanish colonialistion, philippines was heavily Indianised and used to have Hinduism mixed with folk religion as its religion. There were also 2 prominent hindu kingdoms 700 years ago, Rajahnate of butuan and Cebu. And the word rajah(and also rani) is a sanskrit word (Indian).
I believe in u my brother.. The maranao their blood mixed because they are also descendants of indian brunie and indonesia so u can see ther culture like TOROGAN which is similar traditional house of indonesian and the singkil dance and Malong which is similar in indian and brunie was the first one they originated from mussel man dayak tribe, one of the most native people living in BRUNIE.. And when islam came to them, their blood was mixed in malaysia, so their language is deffirent from the indonesian malysian indian brunie and tausug, but their language are a little similar
There ain't no Hindu or Buddhist religions or influences here in the Philippines but animism and Islam came as the 1st monotheistic religion by the Indonesians Malaysians and brunein traders they're first became Muslim before us and they spread Islam and there rajahnate or sultanate and culture here that's why there is a kingdom of "amanillah" by rajah sulayman and as a maranao Ramayana has no connections or influences to us even in our traditional dance singkil. Singkil is a original maranao traditional dance and the word rajah means " king " to us is in our language and we still using it but we prefer using sultan or datu and Indo and Malay language has so many similarities to our language.
We’re going to perform this dance at school but less complicated steps and my friend Elaiza is going to be the princess sitting on the bamboo sticks at 2:10 and they can’t even carry her 🤣🤣🤣
Gosh, I remember dancing tinikling (a similar dance to singkil but different) and those bamboos hurt your ankles a lot if you're not in sync with the beat.
Yeah but singkil is the hardest compared to tinikling and the music was different too and singkil was oldest since pre-colonial era of Philippines compared to tinikling during spanish era.
So similar with Malay and Nusantara dances. The male dancer wears Songkok ( traditional malay hat) and also hold a Keris. This dance is truly a Muslim dance.
Not muslim but pre-muslim or Pre-Islam. Malaysia, Philippines, and other Southeast Asian and East Asian countries were influenced by India. This dance is like the Maranao version of India's Ramayana. Also, dancing is haram in Islam so this is definitely a pre-Islam dance.
There's no such thing as Muslim dance. There are dances done by Muslim people, but Islam is a religion, one that forbids dancing and even music. The roots of this dance is a mix of native Austronesian and wider Asian bamboo dances (the Magunatip dance of Borneo, the Bamboo dance of Thailand, and the Mizoram bamboo dance of Nagaland India are examples of similar bamboo dances) with motifs from the Ramayana (Hindu culture, the religion these people were before Islam went there). Indonesian and Malaysians seem to forget Filipinos are their northern older kin. Austronesians moved south from the Philippines into Indonesia and the Malay archipelago to populate those islands. Maybe they can spread the word so Filipinos are not alienated or "othered" in their worldview.
Does anyone have the audio file for this choreography? we want to do the dance without having the clicks of the sticks in the background. Thank you po!!
At 8 min. 26 sec. you see the group picture with the musicians. The entire music was played live and there is no recording without a impact of the bamboo sticks. We're sorry, but we can't help.
Good Day po. I would like to ask permission po to use this video in our event in school for our National Culture and Arts Month Celebration. Hoping for your reply po. Thank you so much po.

I want to be part this kind of Traditional Dance.
Nice one!
I think this dance has influences by Malay culture from Indonesia and Malaysia
wow!
Nasayaw ko na to dati sa school namin
Pwede po ba hingin yung audio lang po neto? I mean yung instrumental lang po neto?
ang galing
Oo nga!😍
Sana mapreserve ito
Tangna galing!
Yun ang mahirap walang costume available, mahirap mag hanap saan meron. Sasayaw rin kami nito pero medyo modern na sya.
MashaAllah 🇵🇭
that was cool
Gosh, I remember dancing tinikling (a similar dance to singkil but different) and those bamboos hurt your ankles a lot if you're not in sync with the beat.
Music sounds awesome at 1.5x

Parang tinikling rin pero dalawang pares ng kawayan yung ginagamit.
Yeah but singkil is the hardest compared to tinikling and the music was different too and singkil was oldest since pre-colonial era of Philippines compared to tinikling during spanish era.
Im sorry but your asik Music is wrong...
So similar with Malay and Nusantara dances. The male dancer wears Songkok ( traditional malay hat) and also hold a Keris. This dance is truly a Muslim dance.
Not muslim but pre-muslim or Pre-Islam. Malaysia, Philippines, and other Southeast Asian and East Asian countries were influenced by India. This dance is like the Maranao version of India's Ramayana. Also, dancing is haram in Islam so this is definitely a pre-Islam dance.
There's no such thing as Muslim dance. There are dances done by Muslim people, but Islam is a religion, one that forbids dancing and even music. The roots of this dance is a mix of native Austronesian and wider Asian bamboo dances (the Magunatip dance of Borneo, the Bamboo dance of Thailand, and the Mizoram bamboo dance of Nagaland India are examples of similar bamboo dances) with motifs from the Ramayana (Hindu culture, the religion these people were before Islam went there). Indonesian and Malaysians seem to forget Filipinos are their northern older kin. Austronesians moved south from the Philippines into Indonesia and the Malay archipelago to populate those islands. Maybe they can spread the word so Filipinos are not alienated or "othered" in their worldview.
Does anyone have the audio file for this choreography? we want to do the dance without having the clicks of the sticks in the background. Thank you po!!
At 8 min. 26 sec. you see the group picture with the musicians. The entire music was played live and there is no recording without a impact of the bamboo sticks. We're sorry, but we can't help.
