Abstract

This article addresses the work of researchers Francesca Reyes Aquino, Sally Ann Ness and Benildanze, all of whom use embodied practices to study Filipino folk dance in the academy but with divergent methodologies: Aquino uses ethnography, Ness phenomenology, and Benildanze practice as research. It examines the processes by which dancers have moved from functioning rituals to representative artifacts and research tools. These processes reveal a complex ad constantly developing relationship between dance practice and the academy.
