From Maguindanao, Lanao del Sur, Maguindanao del Norte, Maguindanao del Sur, Maguindanao, Maranao

The Sagayan is a warrior dance with a shield and kampilan sword. Maguindanao, Maranao and Iranun people perform it, often before celebrations, to drive off bad spirits.

Maguindanao, Maranao and Iranun all perform it. Province Maguindanao was split in 2022, so both successor provinces are tagged.
