The tinikling dance is named after the "tinikling" bird, which is known for its graceful movements in the rice fields of the Philippines. The dance mimics the bird's movements as it navigates through the tall grass and avoids traps set by farmers. Traditionally, dancers perform the tinikling by stepping between two bamboo poles that are clapped together in rhythm, symbolizing the bird's agility. It is a cultural folk dance that showcases the Philippines' rich heritage and is often performed at celebrations and festivals.
