Compreender o simbolismo das velas na dança Sinulog é essencial para as práticas devocionais dos cristãos católicos. Este estudo descreveu o simbolismo das velas na dança Sinulog, explorou como essa tradição se perpetuou e examinou os potenciais conflitos com a comercialização e a conservação do patrimônio cultural. O estudo empregou uma abordagem qualitativa descritiva. Dez participantes-chave da pesquisa, sendo cinco magsisinug (dançarinos) e cinco devotos, foram selecionados por amostragem de conveniência. O estudo destacou os atributos socioeconômicos e culturais do Sinug que refletem a importância das velas na devoção católica, a relevância da dança Sinug em Cebu e a preservação do patrimônio cultural diante da modernização e da comercialização. As velas têm uma longa história de uso em cerimônias e festivais religiosos como símbolo de luz e esperança, e acendê-las é uma prática comum em ações de graças e orações, bem como um sinal de devoção ao Senhor Santo Niño. A dança Sinug, que incorpora o uso de velas, é uma dança tradicional de Cebu e serve como símbolo de identidade cultural e religiosa. Com base nas descobertas, o Modelo Kahayag de Ensino Reflexivo (KMRT) foi extrapolado do estilo de vida e das práticas dos mansisinug e dos devotos da Basílica Menor do Santo Niño. O KMRT é uma abordagem relevante para o ensino no século XXI, que incentiva os alunos a se envolverem em reflexões individuais, entre pares e colaborativas, promovendo uma cultura de aprendizado e aprimoramento contínuos.
