  2. Tamborito, Panama'snational dance • “El Tamborito” means the little drum and it is more than a dance. The tamborito is contagious. It is an expression of the Panamanian grace, faith, hopes, desires, spirit and soul. • It is Panama’s typical and folkloric musical theatre. Its intoxicating rhythm and underlying emotions are communicated to all.

  3. PANAMANIAN FOLKLORICO DANCERS IN TRADITIONALCOSTUMES & HAIR ORNAMENTS (Tembleques)

  4. Panama's folklore is fully expressed in its traditional dances, its colorful "Pollera", the national costume, and "tembleques" (hair ornaments) worn by women; the embroidered, long- sleeved shirts, calf-high trousers, and a straw "Montuno" hat, the national costume worn by men.   (Courtesy of Panamanian Folklore Dancers of Killeen, TX)

  5. The DiablicosSucios Dance • The DiablicosSuciosare the ones from Los Santos and Chitre, provinces. They wear red and black stripped suits that originally were painted with charcoal and "achiote" over cotton "manta sucia" and carried an animal bladder that usually stank; when they danced and sweated the colors ran off making a dirty look-hence the name "sucios". • The cone that they use to hold the mask is beautifully decorated with red guacamaya feathers. They also use castanets and a stick. There is no narrative sequence in this dance.

  6. Reggaeton and its Origins • There are two existing versions of reggaeton origin: some say that it originated in Panama, others argue that this musical direction comes from Puerto Rico. That is actually where the majority of reggaeton singers come from. • Reggaeton actually developed from Jamaican Reggae, but was certainly influenced by various other musical directions, like for example, North American Hip-Hop and Puerto Rican rhythms.
