<p><strong>I saw this video over a week ago and I have been meaning to put it up. The 1500 plus inmates of the Cebu, Phillipines correctional facility are required to participate in these dance routines as part of their rehabilitation.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>The inmates also dance to &#8220;Sister Act&#8221; in addition to some other routines.</strong></p>
<p><strong>As if these men have enough to contend with in having to serve out their sentences, they also have to do chorus line dancing to pop music as part of their rehabilitation.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I have learned some new information:</strong></p>
<p><strong>at least two of the former inmates have gone on to obtain jobs as dancers.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I guess they were two very well rehabilitated inmates.</strong></p>
