Dance is still the best way to express oneself, and when you’re
young it is the great escape to get mature and arm ready to face the challenges
of the future. Generations to generations, dancing evolves in many trends from
solo to group dancing, and sometimes it is a uniting factor for those who loves
dancing no matter what age you are.
Here in Puerto Princesa City, there is a Dance Community
that continue to hone themselves in many latest trends of dance, headed by JR
Pacaldo of defunct Infinite Dancers, he form Poprice or Praises of People Rising
in Christian Evolution in 2010, as an alternate to his old group that no longer
exist.
Poprice is a popular sweet rice snack meal that comes
with different colors and commonly favorites of young ones, “Pagkain lang
talaga sya (Poprice) ginawan ko lang ng meaning.” Pacaldo said.
Pacaldo said that at first they only offer free dance
lessons to a certain group mostly from different schools, the sessions happen
in Mendoza Park daily that start at five in the afternoon where several dance
crew gather and ask help from them in building dance routines and choreography
for show purposes, at the moment they all have around 7 dance crew from different communities and schools in the City that meet daily for one reason at the park,
to learn how to dance.
JR Pacaldo
Pacaldo told us that he really loves dancing, for many
many years he became a household name already whenever there is dance contest
or a group presentation in the school, a fiesta or a party in an office, and he
does this for free, he is also join with some senior dancers in the City in
doing this advocacy.
“Kami open sa pagturo wala kaming binabayad sa kanila at
wala rin sila bayad sa amin, gusto lang namin maiwas ang mga kabataan sa mga
bisyo na naka-adik like computer, drugs o barkada.” Pacaldo added.
Since 2010, Poprice has done major concerts in Mall and
in to some schools, even to some municipality that invites those to perform
here in Palawan, his senior dancers including JR also create Poprice as a dance
crew group, they creatively create and mix dance moves and poetry in their
production numbers.
Aside here in Puerto, Poprice also branch in Manila, some
of their students who move or study in Manila miss the vibes of having a dance
community that regularly meet for great cause, and replicate it there to
continue the brotherhood in the dance floor.
Check Poprice community page in Facebook for updates and
gigs, or catch them every 5PM Monday to Sunday at Mendoza Park stage.
Are you the kind of person that always looks to see what kind of expensive your neighbor's kid is playing? Or are you worried about what your friends are making as far as their salary? Not happy in your marriage, friendships, or not being satisfied with what you have at the moment? Some people are wondering, why despite the fact that I am just a stay-at-home mother and a not-so-full-time photographer, we are still able to manage to go through the day to day lives being happy and having no (or at times with quite a few) debts from other people. It's just a matter of perspective actually. You need to learn the art of contentment. Being content is not being driven by always wanting more. I know that ambition is a prized trait in our society. I am not saying that ambition is wrong. What I am saying is that the constant striving for more and not enjoying what you have or where you are at the moment will drive you crazy. Things do and will change. Have the at...
I was at a beautiful wedding recently, and I had a small moment of revelation about the meaning of wearing a wedding ring. It’s not an exaggeration to say that my understanding was turned completely upside down. Today I Found Out the history and symbolism behind the tradition of wearing a wedding ring and why, in most western cultures, it’s worn on the fourth finger of the left hand, otherwise known as the ring finger.

Sedges, rushes and reeds, growing alongside the well-known papyrus were twisted and braided into rings for fingers an other decorative ornaments worn by the women in those days. The circle was the symbol of eternity, with no beginning or end, not only to the Egyptians, but many other ancient cult...
