A dance named for its local steps

Kalibo’s Ati-Atihan celebration honours the Santo Niño, with processions, costumed dancers and marching bands. The street dance known locally as Sadsad involves briefly dragging a foot along the ground to the band’s beat.

A local name belongs to the movement as well as the celebration.
