This isn't hula dancing. This is a Tahitian dance. Anyone who really knows anything about Polynesian dancing should know this.

[BeautifulKia]

i agree with you girlieme7...this is a performance at her grandpa's dinner party..i don't think there's anything wrong with the way she is dressed and i don't think it is embarrassing..her hula dancing is actually supported by her loving parents..thank you for your comment..i appreciated it!!!

im a polynesian dancer and i want to give her credit for her performance. still need improvement on that tahitian/cook island dance, but keep up the good work, youll become better before you know it.

the young girl is very good nothing to be offended over it is a traditional tahitian dance the Tamure

@timzes but this is not hawaiin, it is tahitian. Hula is the hawaiin word for dance, not the tahitian. Tahitian dancing is all about the hip movements, while hula (my favorite being kahiko) is about the hand movements. They wear different costumes, have different stories, different steps, backgrounds, styles, and meanings. And should not be mixed up as the same culture. They are different

what polynesian club is she in?

[Asiankidz1]

isnt brenda song hmong ?

@pierangeli14 correction this is hula, hula simply means dance, the issue arises as to what style of hula or dance, then you can imply it is tahitian, but then there will be the tahitian traditionalists who would say it is not tahitian, but some barby doll impersonation of their art. hawaiians, americans in my view confused the term hula when it simply means dance. its like calling hip hop as ballet yet they are both dance, but the style is different. my pennys worth.

I thought she did pretty well! lost the beat on some parts and could improve a little more on her movements but overall she did well.

[sowhatdowecallit]

she has a very nice presence :]
