ABOUT THE RAMON OBUSAN
FOLKLORIC GROUP
Leaning on the vast amount of data and artifacts he has accumulated while doing researches, Ramon Arevalo Obusan (National Artist for Dance) thought of starting a dance company that will mirror the traditional culture of the Filipinos through dance and music. Thus, the Ramon Obusan Folkloric Group was conceived in September of 1972. Forty years later, the group has created a niche in the world of dance as a forerunner of Philippine folk dances performed closest to the original. Boasting of over a thousand performances in the Philippines and abroad, the ROFG has been one of the resident dance companies of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) since 1986.

Though steeped in international recognition, the ROFG has never forgotten the people who are the very source of its pride. For four decades, it has documented and performed the dances, music and rituals of more than 50 ethno-linguistic groups in the country. With more than twenty outstanding full-length Filipino dance works, among which are suites from the Cordillera, the Muslim and the indigenous tribes, the ROFG has continuously served to highlight the authenticity of the movements, music, songs and dances of these people.

Today, the ROFG humbly celebrates 40 years of fruitful existence and service to the Filipino people. There is no stopping the ROFG in their pursuit to record and stage the fast fading Filipino traditions.
