I think it's REALLY disrespectful to hoop and hollar while these people are trying to concentrate during this fantastic dance. Not to mention OTHER people are trying to listen and watch and they dont want to hear the people hooping and hollaring, they want to hear the music. Have some freaking manners. SAVE THE APPLAUSE and SHOUTING FOR THE END!!! If they knew what the words meant, they shut their mouths.

@teddybearz4me ...really you need to educate yourself on Polynesian dancing. That hooping and hollering you are so disappointed in, is in fact a celebration and encouragement from the dancers/leaders/tutors.

You may mean well....but you have it all wrong. Also ....feel the need to add, this is not a professional video, it is a mother taking a vid of her daughter...so any noise you hear from the camerawoman is not heard by anyone.

[teddybearz4me]

More than 1 person was verbalizing during this.

I am very well educated thank you very much. Both my children are in several different music programs in school, & extracurricularly, & the proper etiquitte for ANY performances are to remain quiet until the end. listening to people make a bunch of verbal noise while these people are performing after so much hard work to do it, is aggravating in the extreme to the listener, & disrespectful in the extreme of the person doing it.

@teddybearz4me you are an idiot. you know nothing about Polynesian performances or dancing. Stop commenting on something you are NOT informed about and touting your kids musical programmes makes you seem even more ignorant.

You dont get it......I stated that it was a celebration and encouragement, shouting....to show enjoyment, whether you think it is disrespectful is moot....because it isnt.....If you are going to comment, please educate yourself.

@teddybearz4me I know that alot of people have replied but you've got to realize that this isn't the same thing as signing the anthem and such. this song/dance is not "serious." i mean you could say that its just how they show their spirit with the dancers.

[KurapikaZer]

Including myself we are raged by teddybearz4me's comment There are specific times when you should clap and "holler" and such during performances but it varies on the music so the "proper etiquette" doesn't apply to ANY performance. I mean during solos, you clap and holler for the solo and i believe this performance with everyone cheering is quite nice, it keeps the performers motivated and they're happy to know the audience is enjoying it.

@teddybearz4me just shut up. Maybe back in Hawaii they don't have to be f***** quiet during the performance

[MoriKitsune]

I wish I knew how to hula dance.. But thats second on my list. Does anyone know where I can find someone to teach me Romani dancing?? General FL/GA area would be best x3

[luvmenowbitches]

@teddybearz4me I have nothing against that but now theres alot of arguing so thanks ;P and honestly,, thats what everyone does because i've actually lived in Hawaii, and this is what they do no matter whatt, because that is how they show their pride in their children and music,, your children are probolly in like hip hop or ballet welll thats a whole different storyy! And it's very rude how your just instantly saying it's disrespectful when you dont even know why their doing itt!!!! Peace

GREAT VIDEO!! MAHALO FOR SHARING! @teddybearz4me EDUCATE YOURSELF IN POLYNESIAN PERFORMANCE AND DANCE!

[cookierockstar8]

@teddybearz4me how is it disrespectful?? if no one was cheering during it i bet they might of been discouraged they those ppl just love seeing thier daughters or friends dancing and having fun!! if no one cheering during them dancing then they were disintereseted but cant u just have and just cheer them on for how great they r how did this video became a arugument on cheering during kids dancing?? retards

[rickyfan3956]

@teddybearz4me Perhaps what they mean by "remain quiet" is that people shouldn't do some of the following during the performance: 1. Talk amongst themselves. 2. Talk on their cell phones. 3. Get up and/or walk around during the performance. 4. Keep a crying child in the auditorium during the performance. 5. Shout derogatory remarks and/or heckle.

These are just a few examples of what not to do. But I'm sure shouting encouragement to the performers would be perfectly okay.

[rickyfan3956]

@teddybearz4me "hooping and hollaring", as you say--and thank you very much, I hadn't heard that term "hooping and hollering" in a long time. LOL I thought my family and a few people I knew were the only ones who used that!--when we get that kind of feedback it is encouraging and we feed off of the audience's energy. So, no positive feedback coming from the audience? The performance will probably suffer. Lots of positive feedback--aka "hooping and hollering"--probably a great performance.

[rickyfan3956]

@teddybearz4me I was going to add, too, that although I am not a dancer by any stretch of the imagination, I am a musician and I have also acted and I can tell you from experience that when we're up there on that stage and we perceive nothing coming from the audience...it's very discouraging. It makes us think that maybe we've done something wrong or we're not very good or you just don't like us. On the other hand, when we receive such feedback as cheers and (cont'd)...
