Pangalay Circle
Pangalay Circle, started in 2022 by Kim Requesto, centers around workshops and in-person dance circles. We hope to connect community members with seasoned practitioners who specialize in Pangalay dances and other Philippine dance forms. These local practitioners would serve as the bridge between students and Indigenous culture bearers- channeling movement and lessons through workshops as well as facilitating dialogue through in-person and online platforms.
We’ve produced two gatherings, one being a celebration of the first year and also Philippine Dance in the Bay Area. Currently, Pangalay Circle will begin it’s fourth year of programming for 2025! To learn more please follow Pangalay Circle on Instagram at @pangalaycircle!
