Held at the AVR of Mandaue Central School, the workshop aimed to upgrade local choreographers, P.E. instructors and dance enthusiasts of the rudiments of the festival.
This year, the competition will be composed of locals and students coming from different schools of the city - Mandaue Comprehensive, Tabok, Don Gerardo Ouano, Paknaan, Subangdako, Tipolo, Cabangcalan, Canduman, City College, Basak Elementary School, with guest participants from the Mandaue Integrated Dance Company and Mandaue School for the Arts. To add color to the festivity, festival dancers coming from Compostela, Danao, Consolacion, Bacolod and Surigao will be gracing the grand parade.
Mantawi is a mimetic dance inspired from the movements of the Mantawi vine.
