Courtship dance is always performed by some tribes in Mindanao during wedding, social gatherings and other festive events. The male dancer plays the faglong (a two-stringed, lute-like instrument of the B’laan) while dancing and the female dancer uses a kerchief while imitating the movement of the hawk. |
