  • Aloha, Talofa, & Iaorana! Thank you so much for clicking on this video! I am sharing some clips from a live class i ran last week. In this video, you have some short warm-up drills, Beg/Int. combos to traditional pehe & 'Aparima combos! Take what you want from this whether it is music or dance. Keep in mind, I am training and getting back into shape as well so my technique falls out of place and my arms are not perfect! We are here to grow together!

    I'm 68 and just getting started...soooo...if you hear of an old lady croaking in a weird position...It's me!!
    I used to belly dance in my younger days...this is great exercise to strengthen muscles used in child birth. I had three natural childbirth and I know my conditioned muscles were of benefit.

    • @ayabaheera
      @ayabaheera 8 місяців тому

      ​@@pervy.sage86 The similarity is in the isolated hip movements. The difference is in how the movements are executed. It's hard to explain in text, but in most styles of belly dance, the movements are contained and subtle than Tahitian. In Tahitian the movements are larger and more pronounced. It requires more bend in the knees to complete the movements the way she does it. The arm positions are also a bit different.

    Hi there! I just wanted you to know!!!! YOU ARE BAD!!!!! Girl! I live in Philadelphia! I am home due to covid. Working but no exercise! I cam across a news-clip. The clip was of New Zealand people giving tribute to George Floyd. I believe, Maori doing HAKA. I cried. Went on looking, in between working😊, It was short but it moved me. I came searching, at 3:00 am to for more. I have, always, loved traditional, dancing. Unfortunately, in U.S., it’s not shown!!!! I watched hours. Saw Tahitian dancers and was amazed! I tried but... ANYWAY! Your show came up. You talked a little.... THEN! You started DAMCIN’!!!! GURL! Splendid. Just beautiful. I got up and tried! Lord! Have mercy! It’s a workout BUT YOU MAKE IT APPEAR EFFORTLESS! JUST BEAUTIFUL! I am going to continue trying BUT I AM TWICE YOUR AGE! Like I said. YOU ARE BAD!!!! Thank you for sharing.

    I meanwhile really enjoyed this sort of "class". Polinesians dances are probably my next fav from now on. While i'm watching it, i'm still practicing it in my living room, and i am not feeling that much isolated and disgraced anymore. So i thank you heartfeltly.
