Silay Philippine Folk Dance: Lapay Bantigue

Lapay Bantigue is a mimetic dance that refers to lapay or sea gulls which are bountiful in Bantigue, a coastal province of Masbate. Similar to the Kalapati (dove) and Itik-itik (ducks), it copies the movements of the gulls like overly bending back till the head is near the floor.
