    Lerion
    In the mid 1950's the late National Artist for
    Dance, Dr. Francisca Reyes-Aquino and the
    resident artist Simeona F. Chanyungco
    thoroughly explored to search for a dance
    around here. They discovered this dance in
    the old Parang, Marikina (formerly part of
    Rizal).
    History discloses to us that Parang for many years was a
    typical agricultural town. Today, we don't discover a hint of
    the old Parang of yesteryears. But looking back one can
    find a trace in the olden days, townspeople would group
    together after their harvest in the spirit of sense of
    community and fun. They would sing and extemporize
    nonsensical rhymes to their tunes and afterward would
    immediately put movement into their songs. The words in
    Leron, Leron Sinta give a picture of a space loaded up with
    trees and plants, birds and bees, animals and insects, being
    observed and delighted in by the locals in their habitat.
    Eventually these unadulterated movements of nature were
    gradually absorbed in the life and culture of the town such
    as in their expression of love and courtship. This was the
    Parang of yesteryears that embraced Lerion as their festival
    dance (a concocted) word from Leron Leron Sinta.
    Being a Marikeño, it is a must that we know the folk dances of our
    city. And at the same time, Balse and Lerion are two local folk
    dances which allow you to use your body and help you to be
    physically active and engage in dancing as a physical activity.
    The name of the dance Lerion was derived from the popular folk
    song Leron, Leron, Sinta. This festival dance is a favorite of the
    old people of Barrio Parang in Marikina, Rizal.
