How to dance the Tinikling -- Philippines Street Festival Melbourne 2016

Demonstrate this for you and we hope you enjoy

So this, I'll show you guys, we've got Vambu sticks here. And so two people are on the ends, as you can see, and they..

So they, um, hit the bamboo sticks on the floor and then they slide them together like this

while someone, particularly dancers, put their feet in, out, in, out, and it takes like, like

it takes like pretty much a lot of timing to not get hit and that's the music so it's pretty simple

lots of people can add in some stuff like some turns and And usually there two people dancing so they have partner work

They do a little dance, sort of a routine sort of thing

And so at some point, sometimes Google can even add a little challenge

They can blindfold themselves, or they can add more people to the dance so that

it's more exciting, more entertaining for the audience sort of thing. So, so does anybody want to try it

Anyone in the audience? Okay, so Cleetulate is gonna go choose someone from the audience

You know who I'm gonna change that. Say hi, Summer. Come on
