JAP SINULOG DANCERS. Would you belive that there are Japanese who dance the Sinulog as their devotion to the Sto. Niño? A Japanese man and a woman, believed to be husband and wife, were seen dancing the Sinulog in front of the Pilgrims Center while the Mass was going on last Friday afternoon. They were not doing it for fun. “They are serious about it and they do it with feeling,” the Japanese’ guide said.
EVEN IN JAPAN. Later the two Japanese, with the help of their guide, told curious Cebuanos who gathered around them that dancing before the image of a holy icone is done in some places in Hokkaido where they came from. “It’s a religious practice done for centuries in their place,” the guide said.
