omggg colors!! love it! im white and i dance tahitian/hawaiian/maori/samoan/etc. with a group.. its great to see others too! spreading the aloha spirit is all that matters! <33
Yo pienso que las intenciones son buenas pero les convendrìa asesorarse sobre con algun maestro tahitiano de hecho en USA hay varios buenos que compiten en el TAHITI FETE pueden contratar alguno de esos y les ayudaran a superarse y usar vetuarios mas apropiados en cuanto a diseño y colores que deben usarse estàn por ejemplo TIANA LIUFAU o IDA VEIMAO
HELLO HOW IS CALLED THE TITLE OF THE SONG ... WE HACIEBNDO CHOREOGRAPHY AS THIS ONE,, BUT WE MAKE WITH THE SAME SONG,, PLEASE HELP ME .... GRACISA ...!!
HOLA COMO SE LLAMA EL TITULO DE LA CANCION...ESTAMOS HACIEBNDO UNA COREOGRAFIA IGUAL A ESTA,,,PERO QUEREMOS HACERLA CON LA MISMA CANCION,,AYUDENME POR FAVOR....GRACISA...!!
Who says it has to be perfect.. Off course we all know they're not tahitian, except for da dummies... But they still shaking dem ass.. i bet they even better than other island girls.. FO REAL..
it's nice,but, where is the Tairi,the Fa’arapu? the basics. i just see a lot of girls change the places!, but i have to say that every girls go at the same time!
muwahahahahaha LOVED IT! It's not competitive level tahitian but the choreography and transitians were lovely. Btw...I am a huge fan of the Colored Mo're. What's not to love? Keep it going ladies. :)
i give you guys credit... don't let the negativity get you down. clearly you have put a lot of effort and care into what you did. as for the kumu... what kind of kumu speaks so trashy? comment to the so called 'source/teacher/foundation', it's a shame that your representing hawaiians that way, 'no aloha'.. instead of taking the time to bad mouth these women, you should be spending your time setting a good example of conduct to your students; and make sure that you teach as best you can
this was good, for white girls that probably taught themselves! I give it up to yall-) yall did good im samoan i do tahitian but i was i grew up doing it!!so give urselves a hands ladies u did good!don't matter if ur white black brown yellow green pink lmao!yall did good-)
you guys are something.... most of the girls smiled.... ever think that this was their nerves that got to them that why there was no personaliity? they did just fine!!! i have been doing tahitian for years but you don't see me putting down others to make myself feel good...... YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE POLY TO DANCE POLY!!!
whats up with everybody thinkin im hatin. ugh no matter what kind of dancer you are, nervousness or no personality always counts. that's why its ENTERTAINMENT.people dont wana watch girls that dont enjoy what they doing, concentratin more than dancin. and you and every body else can take my words how you want. its called constructive criticism. thank you for your opinion. tho.
I know what to say....galloping horses....that's all I have to say. Oh....and I didn't think its even slightly alright, but I agree with the whole "no personality"....I didn't even see 1 girl smile.
im mexican and i do tahitian danceing and all the othere island dancein my fave is samoan BUt i placed alot in many comps it dosent matter about ur race..
okay congrats to you placin but my point wasn't that white girls shouldnt dance i have mexican dancers in my dance troop. my point was they did not represent my culture very well, atleast it was worth a try. and hunny i won overall for more than 25 competition. i was speakin from a kumu's point of view. thank you for your opinion and you are right race doesnt matter.
@wahine27 - You sound like a typical kanak- - full of jealousy no doubt. If you think you can do any better, don't mouth, just post. These girls are learning and with practice like in anything one attempts, you can only get better.
Doesn't matter what nationality one is, if they persevere in any skill, be it dance, be it sports, be singing or music, with all the practicing, one can only better one's self. Stop embarrassing the hawaiian race with your comments.
Stop with your embarrassing comments, you sound like a typical kanak. These girls are trying to be good at something by taking the time out to learn another cultures dance. As long as one perseveres in anything, be it sports, music, singing or dance, one can only get better at it. Talent is for those who seek it, and the color or nationality of one's skin ain't gonna stop anyone from being good at whatever one chooses. You go girls!
It depends if they were self taught or professionally. Like me I'm white but I was taught by my auntie who is Hawaiian/Portuguese and yet we have a girl in our troop that is self taught and dances so beautifully but yet she has trouble.
Wow you guys are something... i'm hapa haole and most of the time when i dance i can feel the sting of judgement with polys. thats a reason why i stopped competing cause you saw the worst in people and i refuse to let my students compete because they are filipino, they would get eaten alive. i dont get it.. what happened to the ALOHA spirit??? thats what my aunties and uncles taught me. That was a SOLID ROUTINE!!!
I'm with you. It's sad to think that even if I worked hard on my technique and performance, I'd still be looked down on because of the fact I'm not Tahitian. Do I have to be a descendant to truly appreciate another culture? I think people should stop being hypocrites because everything from the architecture on your island to the religion to the music playing on your radio that you enjoy and dance to, and the English language that you speak are from OTHER cultures.
@cutepanchan There is actually a BIG difference when another culture comes to YOUR island YOUR home and infests your people with disease and shoves their religion, structure, architecture like you said DOWN YOUR THROAT. Then takes your own culture, glamorizes it, and "makes it their own " by trying to dance it. THere is way more to it for natives than you think so if you dont know you should shut up about it!
@KWEENMOANA I'm not belittling the horrendous losses experienced when another culture comes assimilates your people into their own. In fact, my origin is from a country that has experienced its fair share of having things "shoved down" its throat. The language of the island I grew up in is considered dying because most people speak English. I DO understand.
@cutepanchan Actually, belittling it is EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID!!!! Did you not READ your first comment? WTF? Natives are hypocrites because everything on their island is from another culture? Dont try to change your tone now by talking about the well known plight of native people and that your language is almost gone. Dont try and compare your culture with polys. Are you filipino? You sound like it. And btw, having a language die verses having an entire population, a whole race die isn't the same!
@KWEENMOANA Firstly, if it sounded like I belittled your culture's history, I apologize. That wasn't the intention. Secondly, natives themselves aren't hypocrites. It's PEOPLE (read my comment again, please) in general who look down on others for trying to appreciate their culture. They are hypocrites because they ACCEPT aspects of other cultures into their own. You may have had religion and such forced on you, but don't tell me you reject everything that has come from other cultures like music
@KWEENMOANA There could have been a better way to coexist with people of differing backgrounds rather than have one try to dominate the other and force their ways on them. However, instead of focusing on how horribly things were done in the past, look at the present. Today we live in a more globalized world. We understand there are better ways to share, to accept, and to proliferate our own cultures.
@cutepanchan Yeah there could have been a better way....like you stay the fuck over there and we stay the fuck over here.But that didn't happen did it? And how naive & "world peace" are you that you actually believe we are a more globalized world? Where do you live? COuntries invading other countries for their natural resources.....hmmmmm....yeah that doesn't happen EVERY DAY! The left the islands alone b/c they took everything and theres nothing left to take!!! Otherwise Hawai'i would be freed.
@KWEENMOANA Your political view sounds like that of an isolationist yet you call me naive? Think about your stores, your medicines, your tourism, your economy. It's not all about invasion. Countries are literally supporting each other through a vast network of business and movement of people and much more. The tricky is is that most, if not all, act on the best interest of their own country, which could set another country back. But no country is "innocent" in my opinion if you look deep enough

The tricky bit is that most if not all, act on the best interest of their own country, which could set another country back. But no country is "innocent" in my opinion if you look deep enough
@KWEENMOANA People who are native to a specific culture should understand that right now people are trying to understand and learn, not glamorize it. What better way than to take classes, perform, learn words? Sure, sometimes dancers deviate from the way dances are traditionally done. It's happened to a lot of cultural dances. In fact, it's one of the consequences of a globalized world. In short, don't look down on people who even try to do justice to this beautiful dance and culture.
@cutepanchan You will have to understand by bluntness.....but I have had enough. YOU see it that way. To me: white people have no cultural values of their own and so they adopt other cultures' (tahitian). White girl: "ooh thats a sexy dance, let me try and do it so I can wear the outfit and look cute, even though I dont understand it or what I am doing if I just copy this video and get some people together I can start a school and teach it, and charge b/c other white girls will come!" Get out!
@KWEENMOANA Right, I do see it that way because I've been in classes with students where it IS that way. There are non-Polynesian students who try to learn the authentic thing. And there are Polynesian teachers who have no qualms about teaching boys and girls of differing ethnicities. As for this "white girl" scenario: everyone is guilty of ignorance. It's even more reason to teach to let them know that it's more than hip shaking. Goodness you have such a beautiful culture. Please share it.
@cutepanchan I agree with you.. I'm black and I have the same problem, for lack of a better word, with Greek dancing.. it seems like something I could do but my Greek friend won't teach me because I'm not Greek.. >.> I think people should be more open to others when they express a genuine interest in their culture.. :/
and i was speaking in new zealand slang dumb ass dgamer... its how we speak .... slang most polynesians have there own way or speaking in there own slang . like the hawaiians with pegion and samoans withthere funny slang same for us maoriz
get your own culture no we dont need others tryna keep our culture alive., ITS not going anywhere!!! all nations of pacific rhym. from nz to easter island . our cultures and language are alive.. but please stop tryna dance our dances and speak our languages find ur own roots!
Hey, stop using deductive logic, mathematics, and physics! Thats from european culture! Stick to your own culture! Modern science and logic is for white people you silly asian! (You're an idiot, courtesy of Reductio ad absurdum)
wow...don't you guys think that's a little racist? maybe we should just appreciate the fact that new people are trying to learn what we already know...
get your ownn culture please goshh man hahahah from CHINA MONS trynA DO KAPA HAKA TO BLINGGiNG WHITE GURLS doing hula. terrible! its okay to have some knowledge but i rekon stop tryna mimic other cultures and go back to ur own roots!
@wahine27 then how is our culture/dance are going to stay alive if no one doesn't appreciate it.... i hate how people cannot keep an open mind.. especially if your of tahitian, hawaiian, and polynesian decent... i hate how ppl just bring down other people just because they are appreciate our culture... by the way what century are we in now? our culture is exposed to many people around the world.... just as long as they respect the culture and dance... im glad to see other people appreciating it
i think it is a compliment when other non-polynesians perform dances from my culture. i was at a tahitian competition in florida. the tahitian soloist first place winner was a blonde, blue-eyed girl from california. which goes to show you that you don't have to be polynesian to be successful in polynesian dance.
i guess these girls are students. so people should just chill. they aren't professional, yet.
Polynesians music and dancing are great gift for us in the world.
Problem is, 98% of the humans have now knowledge about the art in your culture.
I know al lot about pop and world music (African, Asia, Batak, South America, Russia, Cáucaso). A lot of good music and dancing.
But I never met such a wealth of "naturally" strong expression in music, singing and dancing as in modern polynesia. Haiva festival in Tahiti is in my opinion a important event.
i agree.. and its nice to see other people have appreciation for ones culture... and for one.. at least everyone are keeping polynesian culture as well as other cultures alive.... give them props at least they had a nice performance... great sycronization and showmanship in basics...
man you guys aint polys we do it better and were way sexier !! the reason why we talk shit about white girls because yall need to find your own damn culture !
I usually never see any rude comments to an islander even if they aren't that good. It seems like everyone saves it all for the white girls... it's not very fair. They look like they are having a lot of fun in this dance. That is all that matters.
ok i wanna say that they did really really really good. i take hula and i have to wear those the exact same skirts. and no they arent doubled. they r actually hand made and from hawaii. and each on weighs 8lbs. (i weighed it) so imagine shaking ur hips like they r and wearing 8 pounds on ur hips. and i really liked the colores. where i go we dont have the light pink or the orange. we get to choose our own colors. mine is purple
I love this troupe.

@wahine27 then how is our culture/dance are going to stay alive if no one doesn't appreciate it.... i hate how people cannot keep an open mind.. especially if your of tahitian, hawaiian, and polynesian decent... i hate how ppl just bring down other people just because they are appreciate our culture... by the way what century are we in now? our culture is exposed to many people around the world.... just as long as they respect the culture and dance... im glad to see other people appreciating it

i think it is a compliment when other non-polynesians perform dances from my culture. i was at a tahitian competition in florida. the tahitian soloist first place winner was a blonde, blue-eyed girl from california. which goes to show you that you don't have to be polynesian to be successful in polynesian dance.
i guess these girls are students. so people should just chill. they aren't professional, yet.

Your wrong!
Polynesians music and dancing are great gift for us in the world.
Problem is, 98% of the humans have now knowledge about the art in your culture.
I know al lot about pop and world music (African, Asia, Batak, South America, Russia, Cáucaso). A lot of good music and dancing.
But I never met such a wealth of "naturally" strong expression in music, singing and dancing as in modern polynesia. Haiva festival in Tahiti is in my opinion a important event.

i agree.. and its nice to see other people have appreciation for ones culture... and for one.. at least everyone are keeping polynesian culture as well as other cultures alive.... give them props at least they had a nice performance... great sycronization and showmanship in basics...

I usually never see any rude comments to an islander even if they aren't that good. It seems like everyone saves it all for the white girls... it's not very fair. They look like they are having a lot of fun in this dance. That is all that matters.

ok i wanna say that they did really really really good. i take hula and i have to wear those the exact same skirts. and no they arent doubled. they r actually hand made and from hawaii. and each on weighs 8lbs. (i weighed it) so imagine shaking ur hips like they r and wearing 8 pounds on ur hips. and i really liked the colores. where i go we dont have the light pink or the orange. we get to choose our own colors. mine is purple
