Tariktik is a traditional Filipino folk dance that features lively and energetic movements, often performed in a group. The basic steps include simple footwork patterns, such as sliding, stomping, and hopping, typically set to upbeat music. Dancers often incorporate hand movements and body sways to enhance the rhythm and expressiveness of the dance. The choreography may vary based on regional styles, but the fundamental steps emphasize coordination and teamwork.
