There is alot of ways people hula some do washing machine figure 8s and just side to side well and about the legs man i use to get hidings opening my legs doing the hula when i was young from ma dady lol and slaps on my feet coz he sed i wasnt aloud to move my shoulders open my legs and always keep my feet on the ground (apparent thats the proper way) very hard to do, but i lernt the more your legs are bent the higher the hips sway PROUD TO BE COOKISLAND!

[HardstyleSouljas]

well i don't really care if Cookies/Tahitians can or can't do this. They both have really good style but get over it.

[teriimataha]

@HardstyleSouljas You're right! me too!

That's cooky's sport nowadays to claim everywhere they are the Best of the World LOL.

More Haehaeraa (humility) our cousins ;o)

[sagitaritor]

is this tahitian otea? or cook island local dance?

[teriimataha]

nowadays there is no difference ;o))

[RachelReally]

Before nowadays, what was the difference between the two?

[teriimataha]

cooks did mainly side-to-side and very tiny faarapu. Now we do the same ori ;o)

[tuaua]

Actually there is a diffrence if you watch proper cook island dancing legs are closed or close together and hips swing side to side Tahitians opens their legs and dance circle like kinda like a washing machine.

[teriimataha]

do you really know what washing machine mouv consist in?

Tahitian NEVER do that style ;-)

[tuaua]

Actually i do i grew up in Rarotonga and spent every winter in out family house in Mahina since i was 5years old i have been taught by some of the most experinced dancers in both Tahiti and Rarotonga and i can say with confidence that refer to it or use to refer to it as dancing like a washing machine the old ringer ones anyway...lolz

[Gille87]

@tuaua well Tahitian Ori has evolved a lot the last years, and to be honest, Tahitian doesn't move like a washing machine.

[tuaua]

@Gille87 they may not move like a washing machine but that is how its been described i actually prefer the tahitin style dancing it just looks alot better than ours and thats probably why we have kinda stolen it......lol

[teriimataha]

@tuaua That's some cooky's thoughts actually. We, Tahitians, never consider polynesian culture like ORI our exclusive property. We never consider being better than our cousins. If you watch closely ORIs from our differents archipelagoes of French Polynesia, you'll note that Tahitian way is different from Tuamotu and so on from Rurutu or Marquesians. We get alone well and respect each style. I don't understand this hate from some Cook islanders.

[gGellz]

@teriimataha

actually they do...

thats the way tahitian do it...

but us cookyz swing side to side... and we dont move our shoulders

[teriimataha]

@gGellz like tahitian !

your new/modern style is copycat of tahitian one

I forgive your innocence, you're too youg to remember 20 years ago cooky style ;o)

[gGellz]

@teriimataha

so you may think im young and i dont have a piece of my own mind....Even if i am young i listen to alot of storys that my great grandfather tells me, from the cook islands...

and he was brought up in the cookz....

and no actually i dont copy other peoplez ways of dancing, its my own culture of dancing the cook island way

[gGellz]

@teriimataha

i aint new or morden actually... i know my cook island life thank you very much...

and i dont copy the tahiti ways... its the natural born of the cook island styles

[Gille87]

@gGellz I dunno why u always have to make Tahitian look nasty or sloppy, I feel sorry for u! Seem like u guys don't have any pride, so u gotta hate on others to feel like u got any power or are better LOL! And as Terii stated ur to young to know what ur talking about, and how would u know anyways, ur neither Tahitian or dance Tahitian Ori LMFAO! Hope u learned something from this I really do!

[gGellz]

@Gille87

Aw truu truu thad , Cool ! Ufa !

[Gille87]

@tuaua Oh my fucking god! Seriously? How do u think u gonna get to do the fa'arapu if u don't stir ur hips in a fast circular movement? And what open ur legs? When fa'arapu? Legs are always closed, feet together flat on the ground! I dunno what videos u've seen, but they where clearly not pro or sloppy dancers! And btw it all depends on each halau, every group or school teach differently when it comes to this, but mainly it's feet together!

[tuaua]

@Gille87 clearly this has hit a nerve with you and and leave God out of your fowl thoughts no one here is saying that the Tahitian style dancing is sloppy or ugly but you seem to think so since you bought it up, all we are saying here is that the dancing styles are different and THEY ARE DIFFERENT the Cook island style is referred to as swaying side to side and the tahitian style was described as more like a washing machine style i think 15years of Heiva festival will prove that...

[Gille87]

@teriimataha a part from that they lack extravaganza;)

[Fanaura]

[KaulanaMayumi]

whats is the difference between cook islands dancing and tahitian?

[teriimataha]

since 10 years they are totally similar but before 90's cooks islands ORI did only "TAMAU" mvt with alternative up and down and very tiny "Faarapu"s. Nowadays they are bioth the same unfortunatly

[SOUFSIDE682]
