The next most well-known dance is the 'Bunde', the typical dance in the provinces of Darien .
The dancers form a circle, with the men on one side and the women on the other, and they move to the rhythm of the drums and the voices of the women. The dance begins when a man courts a woman and draws her into the center of the circle to dance, each couple taking their turn in the middle.
While the Tamborito is hands down the most characteristic of Panama, another very famous dance is the 'cumbia'. There is the 'cumbia Santeña' and the 'cumbia chorrerana', each with their own very distinct movements, quite unique to each area. The colorful and very lively movements are danced to the stand-out sound of the tamborito percussion instrument. Other popular representative dances include:
- the dance of the handsome bull
- la espina
- el punto
- la mejorana
- el atravesao
- el bullerengue.
The Dance of the Clean Little Devils is the most traditional dance of the Corpus Christi festival. It consists of various hierarchies, with the Main Devil as one of the principal characters, whose rank is made noteworthy by the extravagant costume.
The Dance of the Dirty Little Devils is radically different from the previous clean dance. The origin of the name of this dance is based on a historical fact. Prior to the decade of the 1930's, the outfit of coveralls was made of a dirty blanket, with achiote and red mud used to paint on the red lines. The black lines were drawn with a burnt corncob. As a result, when the character came out to dance, the red and black lines got soiled with the devil's sweat, creating a very unattractive or dirty appearance.
