Lisa Macuja guest in Batibot

MANILA, Philippines - Prima ballerina Lisa Macuja (photo) is featured as the guest story teller on TV5’s Batibot today at 8:30 a.m. Lisa reminisced with the Batibot team about that first time 20 years ago, shortly after her homecoming from Russia, when she was featured in Batibot dancing to an original Batibot song, Umihip Tulad ng Hangin. 

This time, Lisa will narrate an original Batibot story about Hannah Hippo, an eager ballet student and also tells her own story about growing up and learning to be a professional ballet dancer. The Batibot team is confident that Lisa’s story will be an inspiration to children especially those interested in dance.

Watch Batibot’s Matuto tayo Sumayaw! which is about learning to dance and working hard to achieve one’s fullest potentials in dance and in life. The dance-themed episode will also feature young kids from Pasay City who are learning ballroom dancing after school and hope to achieve competitive levels.
