- History
Sakuting (pronounced seh-KOOH-tihng) comes from the province of Abra, home to the Ilocano people native to the lowlands and the Tingguian mountain tribes. The Spanish established a garrison to protect Ilocanos who converted to Christianity, and their capital city, Bangued, from raids by the mountain tribes. Introduced by Spanish missionaries as religious ritual, the sakuting dance portrays this struggle between the lowland Christians and the non-Christian mountain people. Sakuting’s origins, however, appear much older.
The sakuting dance, originally performed solely by boys, portrays a mock fight using sticks. A sakuting stick is striped or bamboo and is about 1½ feet long and tapered at the end, like a candle. Its original use was for combat training. During the playful folk dance, two teams, one representing each side, circle and clash bamboo sticks in a gentle imitation of martial arts sparring. Its dance form is the comedia (a theatrical dance, also called moro-moro) and features a battalla
Dancers use one and two sticks throughout the performance to tap the floor and each other’s sticks. Dance steps are a combination of marching and small forward or sideways shuffle steps while circling and interchanging positions with other dancers. Some modern interpretations are more athletically demonstrative of the martial arts, while others add ballet movements. Dancers twirl the sticks, hitting them against opponents’ sticks, displaying a mock fight.
Origin
Arnis, the traditional Filipino art of stick fighting, employed readily available weapons by simple people seeking self-protection. The occupying Spanish banned the practice of Arnis, forcing it into secret. Filipinos found ways to openly retain the practice by making the Arnis movements part of folk dances. Sakuting is actually a two-stick Arnis exercise set to music.
The Music
The traditional music styles for sakuting portray the dual influences of China and Spain. Its staccato inflections and rhythmic tapping suggest a strong Chinese influence. The music itself is played by a rondalla, a native string ensemble of plectrum (plucked with tortoiseshell fingerpicks) instruments influenced by Spanish stringed instruments, that includes bandurria, laud, octavina, mandola, guitarra and bajo de uñas, or double bass.
Today it is presented by Culture Philippines of Ontario (CPO) on the occasion of carassauga 2019.
Appreciate the uploader who uploads the video with a v. gd description.
This was the hardest dance I have tried in my pe class
i'm practicing filipino escrima and I have noticed that some filipino folk dances has those certain moves that are oddly similar with escrima strikes and attacks, and I have researched that filipinos back then have disguised martial arts moves into folk dances because escrima was prohibited back then during the spanish times
Yep! and also, it’s called “Kali” from the Visayan word Ka-Kamot and Li-lihok. Kali is the original name of that martial art. Eskrima and Arnis are Spanish words used by Spanish people to call that martial art after they saw it when they arrived at the archipelago.
@@user-pt6nk4cq7e nope it’s not. Kali has been made up by a man named floro villabrille. Your research was not thorough enough. No one in the philippines had heard of kali prior to the 2000’s
@@spartanwarrior1 Nope, you're the one who needs more research.
All that is true.
I miss dancing Sakuting.... ❤️❤️❤️ We even won the Municipal Meet and head straight to the Provincials... either way... Sakuting si one of my Favorite folk dance
Most underrated Filipino folk song. I wish we had more like this

oo
This reminds me of the battle between Apo Laki and Mayari. When Apo Laki was decreed god of the heavens, his sister Mayari was angered and fought her brother. They both picked up bamboos to fight but Apo Laki was the better warrior and in the process injured her eye. After realizing what he had done Apo Laki conceded joint ownership of the heavens. Apo Laki became the Sun God and Mayari was the Moon Goddess.
kkkmjjj mmm k kvkjjikk m know versatility oi🥹
It's actually a mock fight between Christians and Muslims or Moro-Moro basically
@@KTheChristianArtist that's the colonialist interpretation
No way y'all are replying to a 3 year old comment
Sakuting demonstrates a mock fight between christians and non-converts during spanish colonization. The filipino martial arts(FMA) called Kali/Arnis/Eskrima was banned so the natives incorporated it into Sakuting. Interestingly, Maglalatik is also a dance that disguised how the coconuts worn by the dancers were the points of weakness of the spanish armour. FMA is very much alive today and im proud of it :"D
Omg that's so interesting!! I've never heard of what the dance symbolizes!
Who's here for answering the module?

Hi, please go ahead.
@@linuphysio thank you so much
sorry, but those were not ilocanos but the Bago people from the hinterlands of Ilocos. imee marcos called them Igorots of the lowland but actually they are igorots as it generically mean- from the mountain or hill tribe dwellers. Sakuting is only one f their native folk dance. they have the Tadek dance with pinnanyoan.
Do you know of any dances that originate specifically from the Ilocos region? Especially Ilocos Norte?
Anong stick gamit dito?
Bambo
ZENITSU
if there was no pandemic maybe we wouldn't dance alone, if face to face class, maybe in pairs
ano pong audio ang ginamit niyo?
(2) pa up po if nakita nyo na ang audio.
This my dance iwas high school student I remember dance title
saan po pwede kunin music na wala yung sounds ng stick?
kawayan
where can i find the audio?
Can't u take it from the video?
@@linuphysioThere is noises and stuff 😭
CheenaFei Cabalu On my side, it's playing well with live music. Probably, it's masked in Philippines. If you text me your email, I'll send the audio from the video.
No audio when u play the video? It's playing fine on my side. Text me ur email, I'll send the audio.
Where should I get a copy of the music?
These music played on stage live. Probably u need to screen record it and then convert it in to MP3.
Search nyo lang Sakuting music
Where I can get the music?
Screen record the video and convert music from it. Background noise of the people will be there. If someone can help u to mask those sound, great.
I HATED THIS WHEN I WAS IN 8TH GRADE
Same
I don't even know if I can dance this one it's so fast, i can dance but I can't follow fast sounds 😭
Binis Lakan ibig sabihin niyo, Sakuting was never on the learning guide of the teachers.
We're dancing it this school year🥲 grade 8
@@DemMendoza Nope
is this... arnis disguised as a folk dance?
it could be. they must hide behind a dance their martial technique so the spaniards could not know it.
We were taught that Saktuning is a ritual dance before going to War and their primary props are Bamboo sticks or Arnis
Yes.
