It truly baffles me how many comments here are people making fun of this beautiful practice. Just because you have the spiritual range of a teaspoon and no connection to this powerful culture and land, doesn't mean you get to hide behind your keyboard and poke fun at a culture you know absolutely nothing about. Shame on you. Much aloha to this beautiful halau for staying connected to their culture and ancestors.
Anna Rose Deleon Guerrero if only they knew how proud being part of Hawaii makes u feel. It’s like being proud to be an American or from your country. But extremists can’t negotiate
Kuchi Kopi can y'all not do this on my comment? i simply wanted a positive connection to this video and y'all obviously don't enjoy this video so why bother? and why do you hate a religion lmao
@Kuchi Kopi nothing about this speaks "religious nuts" they're not picketing on the side of the road, condemning non-believers. They're not trying to inject their beliefs into the classroom. They're not forcing their beliefs onto anyone else.
Waimea is such a beautiful place. I visited this past summer. Hawaiian culture is so fascinating and beautiful! It gets covered by touristy gimmicks too often.
Makayla I totally agree, most people that come to Hawaii don't realize that what they are learning are tourist traps. Many tourists that come here often don't even learn actual Hawaiian culture.
When you go to school in hawaii becuase I lived there you learn the hawaiian culture but you mostly learn about american history more than hawaiian history
Jason Cheers Actually some schools like public schools actually teaches the Keikis the history of Hawaiʻi too. I went to a public school in Oʻahu and learned a lot of things about King Kamehameha, King Kalākaua, Queen Liliʻuokalani, the illegal overthrown, Captain James Cook, discovery of Hawaiʻi, hawaiian language and more when I was about to hit freshman. I’m a junior right now and I’m still learning more and more of all the monarchs, the language, the culture that our ancestors did and the history. Most public schools that are in the white or rich community never learned or heard anything about Hawaiʻis history. So it all depends where the public school is at. Where my public school is at get choke locals🤷🏻♀️
@@puraheatmy friend went there for her honeymoon and said that it was so Americanized that it was hard to find the real culture there and that is what she did not like
I'm afraid that in a hundred years so many such beautiful traditions, cultures and languages will be lost. This is who we all were, and this is so valuable. So rich.
It's already happened to many Americans. My family doesn't have any special traditions, and it makes me feel lost and lonely. I have no idea what my cultural heritage is and it makes me feel disconnected from everyone. These people are lucky to be part of such an amazing thing.
i live here and its actually quite expensive, but its cheaper than san Francisco and new york. Also hawaii is the only state where everyone is a minority so a culture pot of the pacific and asia.
I am soooo proud that this Halau is representing my culture. Our culture is so powerful and meaningful. I love it. P.s. knowing that I live in Hawaii is such a blessing❤️❤️
This is a truly beautiful culture. They keep their families’s traditions living and thriving. With their beautiful clothing, strong beliefs, and amazing dances, they keep their culture and family traditions alive. I live how they dance in nature to their only important audience... their ancestors, in the form of plants, hills, rain, and fog. Beautiful culture, I’d be so glad to learn more about it.
Ancestors are everywhere around us. Plants, hills, wind, rain and so on. You dont even have to be religious or spiritual to know this is true. Our passed loved ones are in the nature all around us. Thats why its so sad to see people mistreat it so much.
Thanks for leaving such a nice comment. I’ve had a rough time lately (I’ve been very sick) and it was heartwarming to see such a thoughtful comment. I’m awake, hurting, and trying to get it under control so I can try to rest, so kindness is especially important and I appreciate it. I hope you have a good day or night as well. Stay awesome.
So beautiful, genuin ancient knowledge! Thanks from my heart for sharing with us! Please dance and sing for all of us who for ages have forgotten the sacred connections!
Im from hawaii, and ive never even seen this kind if hula before. Im learning something new about my own culture, man. Its a very beautiful and powerful hula though.
What a blessing it is to have full knowledge of your heritage. I wish we could say the same on the mainlands. Keep your traditions alive! Love to my Hawaiian brothers & sisters ❣️
their dances translate heavy emotions and pure passion, enough to make anyone cry. it’s incredible, to just be able to get lost in a dance, and feel what could only be nature powering you
I love how they explain what my culture is, what Hawaiian dancing really is. ❤️ this is what hula represents and this is what our culture is made of. What the base of Hawaii is, it’s not touristy dumb shit, it’s a land and it’s a culture.
The indigenous people of this planet have so much to teach about living as spiritual BEings of this planet in connection and command of the elements. This short clip has me in awe and appreciation of great knowledge that is being preserved and practice. Give thanks 🙏🏾
My native ancestors dances too . I hold my traditions doing pow wows. Rain and Wind . I hold my eagle feather the chief elders gave me. I bless the four directions. And the wind calls and blows rain is coming soon
I came here to get a spiritual experience in regards to calling rain, because I am getting ready to call the rain to New Mexico and the Southwest. We are in the middle of a drought and we need the moisture. Lake Mead and Lake Powell are drying up at alarming rates. We were not able to plant our chile crops this year, because of the drought. This is effecting people livlihoods and will eventually effect people grocery prices too. I hope someone out there will help me in calling the rain. Thank you!
I freaking cried watching this. It’s so beautiful. I’m from Oahu, I am not Hawaiian though. But I’ve recently, for a week now, been searching up about Hawaiian culture and everything because schools in Hawai’i doesn’t truly go over Hawaiian history. Mainly American. Hawaiian culture is such a beautiful thing.
Pono! Maika'i no! In the water and in the mountains we dance and chant to our ancestors on Maui, Moloka'i, Lan'i, Hawai'i and Oahu. Teaching the children our history and future to come!
equivalent to the orishas, the oggun dance when he is chopping down clearing the woods to proceed on his journey. it's amazing how different cultures manifest variations of the spiritual context on to be found later to be more common. Amazing
I didnt even know there was this version of hula. I've seen the ones telling stories of Pele and the ones mimicking the gentle waves of the ocean. The whipping motion is so captivating 😮. So there's like volcano hula, ocean hula and mountain forest hula.
The Indigenous People from around the world hold the knowledge and the wisdom of maintaining the elements of Mother Earth through song, dance, prayer and our music!
I know this practice is steeped in tradition and I have the upmost cultural appreciation for it, but it's funny to think of an astronomer (not a meteorologist) using the Hubble telescope to look at Hawaiian mountains and be like, "Hmm, better call the rain dancers or else my trip to the ski resort is ruined."
These are the gifts for anyone to receive if you believe and put in the work as they have. Most people do not understand things like this because they are out of touch with nature, spirit, and the Creator. Come out of the matrix, and you will start to understand these things. How awesome it would have been to be part of filming this. It would be such a privilege to be there in the forest, on top of the mountain with them.

Anna pay no attention. Some are stuck in their heads and miles from their hearts and the natural world and that of spirit.
I havent seen a single commemt making fun of this video and their tradition. Stop 🙄
Lol I didn’t see any so far
I haven’t see any bad comments, stop being a drama queen
"we are not a halau that entertains... you are watching the physical manifestation of the spiritual world we inhabit" 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Kuchi Kopi can y'all not do this on my comment? i simply wanted a positive connection to this video and y'all obviously don't enjoy this video so why bother? and why do you hate a religion lmao
Kuchi Kopi tehnically atheist agnostic and atheist are different
Jason Cheers, Mahalo!❤
@Kuchi Kopi nothing about this speaks "religious nuts" they're not picketing on the side of the road, condemning non-believers. They're not trying to inject their beliefs into the classroom. They're not forcing their beliefs onto anyone else.
@Kuchi Kopi and like Jason cheers said, it's not even technically a religion with set rules and standards.
As a Hawaii resident, I can tell you with certainty that the DANCES HAVE BEEN WORKING WAY TOO WELL RECENTLY ALL THE ROADS GOT FLOODED.
One month I heard flash flood warnings for like one week straight (Oahu)
Well yeah
Ryoei dang
The floods are back

Abhijith Anil It will not be lost...a few of us still remain.
Who cares? Science trumps fake beliefs.
according to who?
I envision a vibrant future where nature and indigenous cultures flourish.
The culture lost when the people mix, endogamic help to preserve the language, the religión and the culture
It's already happened to many Americans. My family doesn't have any special traditions, and it makes me feel lost and lonely. I have no idea what my cultural heritage is and it makes me feel disconnected from everyone. These people are lucky to be part of such an amazing thing.

Gerald Soria Wow lucky, I live in Chicago so things are already very expensive. I hope one day I can visit Hawaii.

Um... ok.
john son I'm honestly not very suprised by that.
only if you will respect the aloha, the people, the land.

i dunno why but i cried. The world is changing but it makes me so happy seeing people preserve their culture and tradition

This is what is needed in these modern times, more of us connecting with each other, our lands, and the elements.
Ugh! So many tears right now. Almost all of us have come from traditions like this that have been lost through time. This was beautiful

So sorry you are a uneducated pound dog.
PietreADI Edgy
DOGGYDOGG You’re forgetting that Hawaii has electricity, schools, and is a busy tourist part of the U.S. Sounds like you’re the one who’s uneducated.

Hawaii is just amazing with all of the hula dances and their close to nature culture, it just amazes me how much dedication they do.
Every time I learn a bit about Hawaiian culture it amazes me 100 times more
Wow, I had no idea a part of Hawaii had snow. Also, I'm so glad they are preserving their culture and tradition.
Beauty! This spoke so very deeply to my heart. Heartfelt tears.
This is amazing. Their faith and clear love of what they do is breathtaking

Hawaii is truly beautiful ❤️❤️
sue ali *Hawai'i
Absolutely beautiful culture. This brought tears to my eyes.
Hawaii is such a beautiful country. They keep their tradition perfectly alive, I'm sad my country, Philippines, does not do this much anymore.
Connected to the elementals...powerful
Hawaiian culture is so beautiful they base everything off of nature and value it more it’s so pretty
Amazing, it warms my heart, mind, spirit, body - to hear this...Axheha, for your sacrifices, prayers, to move with the elements, 😊
Hey i love your channel

So beautiful. And, something we can all do. We just need to be truly connected within and willing to connect with the divine
Beautiful! Thank you for this video.
HAWAIINS ARE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE
So beautiful . This is how we should all live .It really would be heaven on earth .
this was truly the most beautiful thing that i've seen in months
Awesome. connecting with the ancestors, with the elements through dance...
Mahalo nui loa for covering this. It's a hula I've been looking for a long, long time.
I came here to get a spiritual experience in regards to calling rain, because I am getting ready to call the rain to New Mexico and the Southwest.

In CT thinking same thing, I’ll meet you in spirit along the way.
Please send your good magickal vibes to Florida right now..... we need rain so much right now 😫
Waimea...Anna's pond...sky full of rainbows

What side of the iland? I'm from Wai'anae.
Everything about Hawaii is so beautiful
Wow 😮 that was so awesome 🌟. I want to learn how to do what you do. Two thumbs up
They make their own kapa. We call it tapa. I respect that.
Waimea represent!
So beautiful and moving.
So, we need rain right now. Maui needed rain, but they ended up with strong wind and fire, and now devastation. 😢
I respect it. I am asking that a rain dance on be done for Australia. Prayers for rain greatly appreciated.
This video made me cry. So beautiful.
We need to teach this to the world , Australia needs this now
And may their dance continue on come rain or shine

Forreal the spiritual stuff in Hawaii is real! I get chicken skin just thinking about it. It's so surreal and beautiful.
The Indigenous People from around the world hold the knowledge and the wisdom of maintaining the elements of Mother Earth through song, dance, prayer and our music!
Aloha from your neighbors in Oahu!
