Dance groups in the Philippines dominated one of the largest mall in the world with its rhymes that punctuate the dance steps and shouts that the teams hail in unison. “Dance” may not even be descriptive enough for what they’re doing. Along with the music that comes from the performers is their cool set of impressive choreographies. Each dance is original, and each team has a unique style all its own. Yes, it’s completely fascinating.
