Answer:

True

Explanation:

The Bao Dance comes from the Tagalog region. It is a festival dance performed at the harvesting of the cocoanuts. It is danced with ease and grace characteristic of the Philippine folk dance. The dancers hold a half cocoanut shell in each hand and strike them together to provide a rhythmic accompaniment to the dance. Different versions of this dance appear in different regions of the Philippines. This popular version of the Bao Dance was presented to the Federation by Lucile Czarnowski who learned the dance from several native sources. Hope I helped~! ^-^
