Key facts from the background:

  • Pangalay is also known as Daling-Daling, or Mengalai in Sabah. It is the traditional “fingernail” dance of the Tausug of the Sulu Archipelago and Sabah.
  • It is called the most distinctively Asian of the Southern Philippine dances. Dancers need flexible shoulders, elbows, and wrists, with movements like those of kontaw silat, a martial art of the Malay Archipelago.
  • It is performed mainly at weddings and other festive events.
  • The male version, with more martial movements, is the Pangasik. A pangalay with both a male and a female dancer is the Pangiluk.
  • The original idea comes from the pre-Islamic Buddhist concept of celestial angels (Vidhyadhari in Sanskrit, Biddadari in Bahasa Sug).
  • Expert dancers wear janggay on each finger. Wealthy people have janggay made of solid gold or silver.
  • When performed by the natives, the dance has no fixed directions, sequence of figures, or set steps. For teaching, figures may be created and combined.

  • Padyak: stamp or tap with one foot while the body’s weight is on the other foot.

How to use this module

  • Start with the pretest (What I Know). It has 15 multiple-choice items. A perfect score means you may skip the module. One or more mistakes means you should go through it.
  • Follow the parts in order. Each lesson moves through What’s In, What’s New, What is It, What’s More, What I Have Learned, and What I Can Do.
  • Write on separate paper. Put all answers in your activity notebook and do not mark the module.
  • Do the performance tasks. In Lesson 2, you perform basic steps with your family, then interpret the whole Pangalay dance literature. Record each performance on a cellphone or flash drive and submit it with your notebook. Both tasks come with rubrics.
  • Finish with the assessment and extra work. Take the 15-item assessment, then do the additional activities, including a scrapbook of regional and national folk dances with Asian influence.
  • Check your work honestly. An answer key is at the end of the module.

For learners: Lesson 1 asks you to make a paper miniature Pangalay dancer as a “little ambassador” and paste it in your notebook.

For parents: Several activities ask family members to dance together. You can help by joining in and recording the performance.

Lesson 1 Nature and Background of the Dance

Philippine folk dances speak so much about the heartbeat of our people for they tell us about our customs, ideas, beliefs, superstitions, and events of daily living in a certain community. Just by looking at the costumes, props, and implements of a certain group or tribe would tell you of the origin of the dance. The kind of music being used readily also tells about the influences brought about by trade and settlement of our neighboring countries.

What’s In

Directions: Using the graphic organizer below, write down at least five (5) of the different health-related physical activities that you can do in order to improve your dancing skills. Write your answer in your activity notebook.

What is It

Philippine folk dances speak so much about the heartbeat of our people for they tell us about our customs, ideas, beliefs, superstitions, and events of daily living in a certain community. Just by looking at the costumes, props, and implements of a certain group or tribe would tell you of the origin of the dance. The kind of music being used readily also tells about the influences brought about by trade and settlement of our neighboring countries such as China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Burma, Cambodia, Thailand and Japan to name a few. Truly evident is the effect of acculturation in the country as manifested by the kinds of costumes, props, music, and dance steps that are used and integrated into some of our regional and national folk dances. The use of gongs, kulintangs and the incorporation of pentatonic scale to our musical compositions are just concrete proofs of acculturation in the country. These are the reasons why Philippine folk dances contribute to the very rich culture of the country.

The following historical backgrounds and context of the dance literature of Pangalay would give you a clear picture of the nature and background of this regional and national folk dance. This will help you understand its significance and cultural value, including the beauty and complexity of the people’s lives living in those places.

Study this dance carefully and imbed in you their importance to the development of cultural value.

The male equivalent of the Pangalay is the Pangasik and features more martial movements, while a pangalay that features both a male and female dancer is called Pangiluk.
