      baby’s homecoming! this is my first time bringing the laga home. so happy!

      mabuhay! so thankful for this opportunity, mabuhay jenny bawer young and first apprentice, holly calica, for giving this joyful gift. i am sure that jenny’s parents and family are proud to share the kalinga traditions.

    • May 14thlessons learned – what to avoid

      so many things to learn but one major lesson is not to get the strings tangled!! or it will be worse than pulling hair fried from sky diving. believe me i know how that felt. before putting laga away, keep the pieces of wood in place and roll gently, wrap in a soft cloth and keep the laga folded neatly and safe when not in use, be mindful as if it’s a baby. this is my baby laga.

      what not to do with the laga
