Tribu Cebuano reclaims championship
New York City - Tribu Cebuano, a group of dancers who are Devotees of Senyor Sto NiÑo de Cebu reemerged as Champions during the Philippine Independence Day parade last June 2, 2019 held at Madison Avenue in New York City. The dancing group was mostly composed of members of Cebuanos Engaging in Building Unity Inc. (CEBU Inc.), friends, and other like minded individuals whose main objective is to spread Cebuano culture and heritage by showcasing the world-renowned Sinulog dance.
The group bagged awards for Best Marching Group and Best in Costume with a Sinulog-dance choreographed by Shiran Ybanez, Zeny Braga, and Axel Albao.
With their peacock inspired ensemble, dancers, as young as five year-old boys and girls, wowed the crowd with synchronized choreography, lively music, and colorful costumes and props. The well-applauded performance also gained accolades from the American public with an authentic and colorful cultural presentation.
Aside from the Independence Day parade performance, the group is also scheduled to perform in churches and Filipino-American events around the tri-state area for the rest of the year.
