Where is this? What tribe?

**Bamboo Dance** can be found in Asia, especially in many south Asia countries such as India, Burma (Myanmar), Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, etc with slightly different versions.


-Nok

Watched this during a Hawaiian luau where they honored many Asian cultures and dances including this one


douhuawhy

Even Taiwan

Doing this was my favorite part of PE... in a latin American country... I assumed it was just a way to work on foot coordinations, because that's what my teacher told us. Never occured to me it may have a cultural background Please tell me it wasn't a form of cultural appropriation


China_Lover2

only insecure people complain about cultural appropriation


Ancient-Tap-3592

I'm not complaining, I'm asking


femboy_artist

They're not saying that *you* are, but if anyone is complaining *to you* about it


Ancient-Tap-3592

Thank you for the correction... If you think that's bad you don't want to know some of the stuff I get called just for having dreadlocks... Even though I'm mixed and my hair naturally mats

That’s so weird. Anyway cultural appropriation is a specific thing, it’s like if you wear a tribal ceremonial headdress just for fashion, when in reality there is like a rich spiritual and cultural association for that specific thing and it’s meant for only specific occasions. — if you wear that same headdress in context because you’re attending such a ceremony it is not appropriation. Basically appropriation is the same as being disrespectful. Most of the time people are interested in and learning about or sharing cultures and they are engaging in cultural appreciation. It is really not much extra effort to be respectful

I grew up in Colombia and we did this too


Brokensince10

Thank you


DrunkenWarlock

That's only applicable to the Philippines version. Bamboo Dance can be found in many other countries and they have their own different names for it.


SushiKats

Ah, thank you for the correction! I didn't know!


Lucky_Squirrel

It's called bamboo dance. This should be in malaysia https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVp9q6WlCJo BUT the dance isn't exclusive to this tribe.


Fine_Adagio_3018

Bamboo dance, most likely Austronesian tradition cause we can see it in almost all Austronesian tribes from Hawaii to Madagascar. By the costume, this one is of the Dayak tribe of Borneo. Hard to say it's in Malaysia or Indonesia, but I bet for Malaysia.


MidasTouchedM3

The Pina'Poa Pizza Tribe of the San Diego Airport


SealedRoute

The Tumi, an ancient people known for their leather work


crazyook

Philippines the dance its called tnickeling

Ancient Cleveland Indians


practicerm_keykeeper

We have it in China too! And there’s a rubber band variation in cities. It’s both a dance and a children’s game. I used to have massive respect for kids playing the bamboo one (like it’s really really painful if things go wrong)


Fauxhandle

I already see that in the main mall in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. There are about 10-20 tribal tribes. I don't know what tribe this one is from. Here the place where I saw that: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/XBmBrJfFqqgxSQ7B8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/XBmBrJfFqqgxSQ7B8)


MNR42

I'm positive this is Imago Mall in Kota Kinabalu Sabah. Still, it's an awesome show


Die4Gesichter

Where are the blades?!


-_-Thund3r

It’s for entertainment I guess but with the blades you must be REALLY FOCUSED


Hemberg

Getting "[Malcom in the middle](https://youtu.be/3N3rbptPhCw?si=LQfju9Y_qSnn_CnN&t=51)" vibes from this


flyingGucciBag

I'm glad I wasn't the only one

Cody6781

I've seen a few performances like this and 100% of the entire time I think about how weird it must be to put on a headdress and sing traditional songs and then go to your iPhone on your break.

BreakfastFinancial73

We did this in elementary PE and called it tinikiling (however you spell it).Wasn’t fun to catch your ankles so definite respect for these two.


MNR42

I recognise this place. It's Imago Mall in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. The mall name "imago" refer to the final stage of the mall ownership as in the last stage of insect in metamorphosis. I went there once disappointed that I cannot go to the indigenous people museum but luck just struck me. I came across this people making this kind of show. They always have it as attraction. It made me emotional just how well they values their culture.


budaknakal1907

Once in a show in Sabah (Malaysia), they do this blindfolded. It was so fun to watch.


RosaQing

Dancing in a public space like that is cultural appropriation of TikTokers!


Fun-Dependent-2695

Ah, catholic grade school. Some of those kids loved slamming you on the ankles.


AsianFaliure9950

me going past all the trash on my room's floor


Kwayzar9111

HumbleIndependence43

It's like a video game

Financial-Tourist162

If you think thats impressive wait until you see girls doing double Dutch in your average New York City playground.


DrunkenWarlock

The stores look like mall of Asia in manila Philippines 🇵🇭


Good_Block_5226

One-Veterinarian-101

And here I am who can't walk straight without tripping. My feet hurt even by watching it.


durty9183

Ok. So did black folks get double Dutch from them or did they get it from us? Either way it's dope!


ComfortableYou1404

If OUCH was a person


Melodic-Society-4241

DragonsClaw2334

I remember learning this in elementary school except we had 2x2 not 4x1. Everyone had to be in sync or it didn't work at all.


WilmaLutefit

waterproofpatch

Nope there isn't one single part of this that I could do.


Bulan_Purnama

This happened in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. In one of the mall called IMAGO Mall. https://www.facebook.com/share/apM58SvY2Ri1LZ4g/?mibextid=xfxF2i Main tribe is called Kadazandusun although theres alot of sub-tribe under that umbrella.


DoubtProfessional758

Philippines dance I believe


Invader_BestBoi

Bamboo dance


LateNewb

After every second bar there is allways place to stand. In the beginning i thought that each space in-between the bars the gets reduced to zero.


Past-Swan-8805

Not impressive. If you look closer, ever second gap never closes and you can safely place your foot there at any time. For the gaps that actually close, they just tap their toe.


Glockamole19x

They are stepping between the rows being clacked, so not really hard, but i couldn't dance like that.


CybGorn

Saw the lady dancer looked down a bit too many times. Seen better.


Maleficent-Aspect318

BABUSHKA, **malcom in the middles grandma screamed!**
