BINASUAN FOLK DANCE

Binasuan Folk Dance

Binasuan is a folk dance that originated in Bayambang, Pangasinan. Pangasinan is located on the central western coast of
the country, and is host to several national festivals where Binasuan dance is often featured. The dancers balance glasses on
their heads and in their hands as they move. A group of dancers generally performs binasuan, moving in unison, but
occasionally break into smaller groups and perform different choreography.
Binasuan dance derived its name from a
Pangasinan phrase that literally translates to
mean "with the use of a drinking glass".
Dance has been an important part of
Filipino culture for centuries, beginning as a
way for people to express thanks to the
gods. It is now internationally recognized
and sought after, with dance troupes touring
around the globe.
BINASUAN CUPS

Binasuan dancers fill rice wine cups with rice


wine and use water to balance them on their heads
and hands during a performance. To balance the
cups, place one on the flattest part of your head,
just behind the crown, and one on each of your
palms. Keep your head level and high, and look
straight ahead.
BINASUAN STEPS

Binasuan footwork looks remarkably similar to


waltz steps. To perform an arm balance, hold your
arms up and out to the sides, with your palms up
and your elbows slightly bent. Your arms should
look like you're carrying a large log, balancing it
on your palms and the insides of your forearms.
This entire arm movement should take up one
three-count in the music.
Costumes used in the Binasuan Dance
