- Sayaw ng Pagbati
The Sayaw ng Pagbati, also known as the Bati-Bati, originates from the Tagalog term Bati, meaning to greet. This long standing tradition is comprised of little girls dancing first before the images of the Risen Christ (Señor Jesus Resucitado) and His Blessed Mother (Virgen Alegria) in front of the church and then around the streets of the barrio during Easter right after the Salubong and Easter Mass.
The Dance is consists of sway balance steps in a waltzy manner with one arm placed on the waist and the other holding a white flaglet. It is the movement of the banderita where the entire meaning of the dance is seen. The waving and use of the flaglets signifies the joy of the dancers, who are said to represent angels, for the Risen Christ.
Originating in La Huerta, Parañaque City, Carmen “Ka Carmen” Rodriguez, was believed to have been the first to participate in the tradition in the early 1900s dancing along to music composed by Francisco Rodriguez (no relation to her). Ka Carmen would later take to recruiting and choreographing the dance. After her death, the responsibility of teaching the dance was passed onto Violeta “Ka Bolet” Santos, which, after her passing in 2019, was then passed onto her daughter and grandchildren.
During the early 1900's, since there were very few participants, there were only two to three bati dancers at a time, with an age usually ranging from 9 to 13. As time passed more parents and children wished to participate as many prayers and intentions were granted through the Bati. Currently most barrios have between 25-36 dancers in a group, with a dancer usually only participating once or twice to give way to the next generation of dancers. Many of those who participate pray for good health, family, and a prosperous education and future.
The bati used to be performed during two occasions; One in La Huerta during Easter Sunday; and the other after forty days, during the Ascension, in Don Galo. It was later deemed practical to just dance the bati once. Today, it is only held during Easter and in special occasions, with the other barrios like San Dionisio, Sto. Niño, San Antonio-Tramo and Tambo having their own Bati groups going around at different hours day.
Some notable occasions that the Bati was invited are the 1998, 2011 and 2012 Intramuros Grand Marian Procession; The Canonical Coronation of Nuestra Señora de Buen Suceso in 2000; The Canonization of Pedro Calungsod in 2012; The 2015 Papal Visit to the Philippines; The Centennial of the Fatima Apparition in 2017 and the Closing of the Year of St. Joseph in 2021, where the Saboy, another easter tradition of the neighboring city of Las Piñas, performed the Bati for the first time in its history. Other places have also adopted this tradition such as Sta. Rosa, Laguna, Sampaloc, Manila and Pasay City.
Here is the audio of the music to the Sayaw ng Pagbati of Parañaque City in it’s original tempo.
Nakakatuwa lang yun sayaw ng pagbati nirrecognize na sa ibang lugar. Pero originally pride talaga to ng Parañaque! 😊
Much thanks for sharing this culture of our beloved Cathedral Parish of Saint Andrew...
I am so happy that my 9 year old granddaughter was part of it last Easter and she want to continue until she reach 12 year’s old as devotion.
The music was composed and arranged by a native of La Huerta, Paranaque, Francisco Rodriguez also known as "Ka Prisko." He was also responsible for the traditional tunes of Hosannah sung on Palm Sunday and Regina Coeli that is sung for the Salubong on Easter Sunday.
The music of the Bati was partly derived from the piece of José Martínez Toboso entitled "Viva la Pilarica (gran jota Aragonesa). Toboso was a Valencian classical guitarist in Spain.

Almost all women who grew up in Paranaque would say that they have danced the “Sayaw ng Pagbati “ when they were little girls (though the dance group could be a mixed boys and girls group).

I want to know when the sayaw Ng pagbati start
The sayaw ng pagbati starts in the early morning of Easter Sunday . It could continue throughout the whole morning and these young children dance along the streets of Paranaque.
Although no record exists as to when the tradition of the "Bati" actually started in Paranaque, it is widely believed by the elders of the town that it began around the turn of the century.
