  • do you start stretching out with feet together, then shoulder width, then wider? or was it wide, then shoulder width, then together?

  • @mintswack Feet (flat on the ground) together, then @ shoulder width, then outside of shoulder. This is the drill I run: 1) Tamau 2) front and back 3) fa'arapu 4) fa'arapu, opposite direction: feet together, feet at shoulder and outside of shoulder, focusing on the largest (isolated) movement. So if you use this song (it's 2 minutes) then you'd be hearing it, 12 times...

  • what is the name of this song? its beautiful

  • Oops I meant "can't" see the back of you.

  • These are great except I can see the back of you. I've been dancing for a long time but I was never taught the proper way so it's like I'm retraining my body. So in the back as in my posture - is my butt tucked in and my back completely straight? I know what I'm supposed to "look like", but I'm never too certain. Thanks. Any help would be great!

  • I am just starting out and really enjoying your videos. Something I am confused about: in Tahitian dance, are the heels supposed to always remain on the ground, or do they raise for certain movements such as tamau? I've seen different ways and I'm confused. Thanks!

  • Good training video! :)

  • Enjoying all your videos. Thank you for posting them, its good to see taht someone KNOWS what she is doing, and I really enjoy the stretches/warm up's. Music is relaxing as well. Its good for this Old timer....~Dahni, Sina's mom using her YTube
