Video of the Pacific Island dance presentation performance during the "Moana" media event at Walt Disney Animation Studios Tujunga campus.
You can feel the energy in the way they dance! So much power to it as well!
this is so beautiful.. I have been listening to Te Vaka since I have heard about Moana.. Also so the Polynesian culture is so beautiful.. my daughter Sarah says she wants to be like Moana.. she says she is so pretty and I have to agree
This is awesome...so excited for this movie and highlighting Polynesian culture.
Beautiful dance moves..!
i know nothing of the culture but this was so cool and really made me smile... i need to know more of this culture
FABULOUS! Thank you SO much for posting this!
You guys are wonderful, I never seen the dances that you guys did. I really love them.
tahitian drums are just so 😍
I cant stop watching it !!! its so amaziiiinnggg!!!
how the hell you shake your waist like that? i always wanted to learn but damn in just miserable :(
Its a hula technique called fa'arapu and requires alot of practicece
ambrosia1111 It's neither Hula nor a Hula technique. Fa'arapu is one of the basic steps in Ori Tahiti aka Tahitian dancing...
It's similar to a shimmy in Middle Eastern dancing, but DAMN they do it fast!
Hula and Ori Tahiti aren't the same thing "te fa'arapu" is in tahitian language, which is different from Hawaii language please don't make it confusing if U don't know what you are talking about please don't say anything...also it is the tahitian drumming!!! I'm from Tahiti
Keep your torso still and move mostly the knees. You can do it ♡
CHHEEEEEEEEYYYYHOOOOOO!
so beautiful I almost cried😢😢
Hey~! That's Miss Aloha Hula 2010!! :)
Irish Balosbalos yes, she is now engaged to Tiana. They are a power couple!
damn, he fine. Foiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.
So cool!
Excellent Bravo love the dancing bug entertainment love to see me and everything went well! Formance they should continue on what they're doing great job beautifully done
woooow ...nice and creative dance
I'm in love whit this man...
Anyone know the name of the guy? It's for research purposes.
Caught something which sounded like Kay Kai at 3:24 hope this helps!
Soo flawless
I had no idea you can dance drums. But here it is: Drum dance!
beautiful!!!
At least this one is authentic. Get rid of the crappy fake offensive one at the El Capitan Theatre, you know which one that is.
Moolono Lapaau What?
true.. the one they uploaded about El Capitan Theatre was disgraceful
Moolono Lapaau offensive? grow up.
The other one isn't supposed to be "authentic," it's "inspired by"... inspired pieces don't always keep close to the source material. A Knight's Tale, for example... hardly reflects the actual Canterbury Tales. The poster for the Exorcist was inspired by, but hardly lifted directly from, The Empire of Lights by Rene Magritte.
It looked like modern dance, some hip-hop moves, arranged in such a way that I can see the "inspiration," but it did no favors... and just wasn't a very good dance at all.
Beautiful Movies and song
Amazing !
Beautiful woman and beautiful man
He is soooo hot and handsome! And talented!
he's big he's beefy and he likes it
Beautiful woman! And a nice dance 😀
They dance like they may have had African ancestry. The rhymes and the sound of the drums reminds me of some of the tunes of the African drum.
Wow its so nice dance to eveyone!!!!!!
Mate. That guy hot.
Hey !! Those are my dance instructors !!! Woo Hoooo !!!
What happened to Samoa and Tonga or fiji
The man is hot with all these muscles😍
Re these songs from the movie?
awesome!!!
Why all the time wear shorts instead traditional custom?
teresa hernandez Because it was a demonstration, not a competition or something important :)
Because it’s a demo and when you do demos you want to be able to move and be comfortable. Our traditional outfits is beautiful and all but it’s heavy.
Now now now let me fill all you people in about this the drumming here is cook islands drumming not samoan now if you people don't know where the cook islands is google it we are Polynesian just like Tonga Samoa Tahiti Hawaii we all Polynesians and the dancing its a mix of Tahitian, Hawaiian an also a little bit of Samoan in there the picture you see is my misis this her account Polynesian power woop woop
Excellent descriptions of Cook island drumming. I assumed when Moana was presented it was from Hawaii perspective, so excited to see it told from the Polynesian perspective instead very inclusive to true to history.
Sophie Ge Now now now this is Tahitian drumming not Kuki. Easy to hear the difference tho similar. Why sre you trying to claim this as your own when it's clearly a fusion done for the movie? Nonosina is a famous Tahitian dance group in CA, run by the Liufau family. Tiana and her brother Mevina (Melvin) who is in Japan directing his group there, likes to mix in modern elements as well as other Polynesian dances with Ori. Her partner Mika who is the dancer in this clip is Kanaka Maoli and won Miss Hula not that long ago.
Gille87 don't be a scientist now Sophie is right and as a cook islander drummer myself and for many years do your homework before assuming anything I know cook island drumming and music when I hear it yes it is a blend of all the Polynesian cultures but the drumming is kuki straight alright if you don't believe me come to the cook islands yourself see and hear it for yourself no bullshit mate
Lorilee gill I'll have to disagree with you moana was not created from a hawaii perspective but a Polynesian perspective native hawaiians do not have the pe'a tattoos worn by males that come from a chiefly line of village chiefs it is a Samoan tradition so don't assume if you don't know our Polynesian cultures
Cook Island Women Beautiful
#MalofromTonga🙌🙌🙌
Does anyone know what style this is?
amy mansfield i think its kind of a mix. But the woman solo i think was tahitian?...
Most of it was Tahitian
Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyhooooooooooooooooooo that was so good
that man... wow... :o
Tiana💘
the lady who was drumming ya her feet was so so durty
No wonder why they posses good legs
I like it 💪😎😍💖🏀
es super facil baila eso
It looks like Lilo & Stitch
They both take place in Hawaii and both use traditional island dance, but in L&S most of the dancing was done by children and not nearly this intricate. The art styles of the movies also differ greatly.
+Xavian Starsider - Lilo and Stitch took place in Hawaii while Moana isn't specifically from one island but all of the Polynesian islands. The directors say it took inspiration mainly from the South Pacific islands.
the producers said they were looking for an arena that hasnt been done they said not hawaii more like tahiti samoa or fiji cause lilo and stitch was hawaii
the producers said they were looking for an arena that hasnt been done they said not hawaii more like tahiti samoa or fiji cause lilo and stitch was hawaii
this is more like Polynesian than Hawaii (I think Hawaii is Polynesian?) other Polynesians Samoa, Fiji, Tonga and Maori
the male dancer is so fucking hot! what is his name?
i have failed my country by trying to dances like them
Noooooossa!
ccchhhheeoooooo!
cheyo
Que difisiles
cheyho
Lmao 😂😂😂
17-21 seconds the girl is basically twerking
+Oh Really? Lol as if tweaking is beneath everyone. ass shaking isn't terrible.
lauren de la rosa it's not twerking. what would you know?
Dragontamerld 0906 no her waist is just going side to side but it looks like she's twerking because of the skirts they wear
mauiboy8705 Lol what? It's only in Tahiti, Hawai'i and the Cook Island they move their hips like that. And twerking is shaking your butt using your legs/thighs and lower back, Fa'arapu which this movement is called is done by using your stomach and shifting of the knees. Ask any black person and they would probaply say otherwise of it not being rooted in culture. Thousands of years? Nah. Kukis didn't Fa'arapu until recently and now they basically dance like Tahitians even though they will deny this. Inferior syndrome. In Hawai'i the Hula is similar, but not done fast as in Ori. What people see at any Hawai'ian Lua thinking is Hula is actually Ori Tahiti. Ori has evolved a lot since pre colonial times and still is. They didn't dance like this thousands of years ago.
Sabrina Chu Lol wrong.
costume could have been better
I don't think they were worried about costumes because it was just a demonstration.
Jayde Kinkaid Yup it's not a competition nor a performance per say, but a demonstration. Don't see the problem. Usually with Ori Tahiti they dance in pareu only anyway, depending on the theme or if a aparima they may wear a hei or a More skirt. The costume should always depict the theme.
Cool, that would be better than if she was to wear a lava lava. They're not usually flowy like :)
lol.... c'est pas tahitien ça !!!!!! horrible
This isnt hawaiian dancing sorry.... This is for all the hate you put towards my people... Hawaiina pacific they do better than these peopls who got taught in one week smh .
