MAIN IDEA TO BE LEARNED
Stress is sometimes or most of the time is inevitable. We tend to ignore the stress that we feel
but it went to cause much more stress. We live in a world with a busy life. That’s why we encounter so
much of stress in a day to day of living. It is important to know on how to cope up with this stress in a
most managing way. We can do a lot of things to relieve stress, and one of which is through dance.
Dance can be a form of stress management.
We have different ways on how to relieve stress. Activities in relieving one’s stress may vary on
how we look at stress. Managing one’s stress can be done through dancing. Dancing is a great way of
releasing our tensions in our body that leads also in relieving stress.

Dancing as Stress Management

Dance can be used in so many ways. One of the functions of a dance is to relieve stress. In able
for us to avoid chronic illness or diseases, we opted to seek activities that may help us to have a healthy
living. Avoiding stress can make our life easy and much more fun. Through dancing we lead to a healthy
lifestyle.
Dance is purposeful. It plays a vital role for self-expression and has been part of rituals and
religious gatherings. It is also part of our culture and traditions throughout the years. It was passed in to
one generation into another generation. Its functions become so wide that it can even help in our daily
life.
How far can dance go in terms of relieving stress? Dance is a form of exercise. It provides
proper body coordination, mobility and reduces tension in the body. It calms our mind and releases
toxins in our body.

The FITT Principle (or formula) is a great way of monitoring your exercise program. The acronym FITT
outlines the key components, or training guidelines, for an effective exercise program, and the initials F,
I, T, T, stand for: Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type.
 Frequency: refers to the frequency of exercise undertaken or how often you exercise.
 Intensity: refers to the intensity of exercise undertaken or how hard you exercise.

Ethnic / Folk Dance Defined

A folk dance is a dance developed by people that reflect the life of the people of a certain country or
region. Not all ethnic dances are folk dances. For example, ritual dances or dances of ritual origin are
not considered to be folk dances. Ritual dances are usually called "Religious dances" because of their
purpose. The terms "ethnic" and "traditional" are used when it is required to emphasize the cultural
roots of the dance. In this sense, nearly all folk dances are ethnic ones

Philippine Folk Dance

The history of Philippine folk dancing incorporates influences from immigrants and conquerors while at
the same time maintaining distinctly Filipino roots. Philippine folk dancing is a true reflection of daily
life in past centuries while enchanting modern audiences at the same time.

Modern Dance
It is also called as expressional dance. This dance emerged as a form of a revolt against the strictness
governing the old forms of dance. It has varied styles of movements based on the new trend.
