Itik-itik is a mimetic folk dance in The Philippines. It
originated in the province of Surigao in Mindanao.
In Itik-itik (from the Tagalog word for "duck"), the dance steps
imitate the movements of ducks among rice paddies and swamplands,
such as wading, flying, and short, choppy steps.
Itik-itik's current form originated in the Philippine towns of
Carrascal, Cantilan, Lanuza, and Carmen, all in Surigao del
Sur.
Other versions of the dance do exist, although the Itik-itik
Surigaonon remains the most pipular. These alternate versions are
found in Visayas, Samar, Sibonga, Cebu, and Tibiao.
