People often say they can't play music because they have difficulty playing notes or chords.
But with kolintang, people can play music instantly, so with kolintang everyone can play music.
Because kolintang players are only asked to:
1. Can count in a simple repeat
2. Know the direction left, right, up, and down (tones and chords with directions are more accessible to follow than a letter or number notation, even animals know to follow directions).
3. Can clap (moves rhythmically according to the tempo).
These three easy conditions become the same as the conditions for learning to dance. Moreover, kolintang can also be understood without using an instrument but only with finger movements.
The basic teachings of Kolintang are taken from the Minahasa culture, a balance of motion.
