Nov 2007 Prisoners at Cebu are considered the most dangerous offenders in the Philippines. But thanks to four hours of dance lessons a day, their behaviour has been transformed. Previously, Cebu prison was a wretched place ruled by rival gangs. But when the warden introduced dance lessons, everything changed. "Everyone became friends". Now the prisoners spend most of the day practising new routines. Videos of them dancing to 80s classics have become a big hit on YouTube.

I disagree with that "a jail within a jail"; if you can do it in Cebu, why not in Munti? Spread the good work, Byron. This is amazing! Kudos!

i'm happy to see that prisoners who committed crimes and landed in jail and were members of gangs in the jail being violent can come together and make sumthing like this happen and that they were able to cease from the violence and gangs i think they deserve a round of applause! -D Bonez

Hello belovedirish, I don't know what you are reading or how well you comprehend English, but I was referring to ALL the Niggers in the U.S. NOT those in the video. For your information, yes I have been watching the videos and I do see them changing and I hope they will do something with their life if they ever get out.

i'm pinoy. and i know our government is corrupt. same is true with US and other countries. i juz don't understand what is your stake with spreading this vile? these people brought hope and you want to out it out because you're very smart you know Garcia is bad. Have you done anything that has impact in other people's lives? much more to the world? Who do you think you are?

pontien, i hope u take time to digest first what u saw before you say anything. these people might or might not have committed crime but they do not in any glorify violence and thug life. i think u missed the point of this video. People can change into something better and honorable if they choose to. and i have good news to you, it applies to you also.
