Janna San Felipe

I am Janna San Felipe, a Bay Area native who began my folk dance journey in college. As any college student (back then), aspiring to learn about their culture and fulfill a sense of identity, I participated in my university’s Pilipino Cultural Night (PCN). This is where I was fortunate enough to learn more about the beauty of Filipino culture. 

Then I watched Parangal perform for the first time. It was the 7th Anniversary show and I was in awe, thinking how amazing it would be to learn and perform with this company. Hearing about 

Visiting communities in the Philippines, 

Having the cultural bearers every step of the way for any piece creation

I am currently an active performing artist and serve as a Dance Lead on Parangal’s Artistic Team.
