This is not the proper hula dance, in hula the knees should be bent, each step should have meaning and matches the words. Of course we do not expect everyone to know this, and at least they don't make it a sexy dance. I'm Filipino and I learned this while reading and watching videos about our Austronesianian heritage.
As a Hawaiian and hula dancer myself, this is not hula, but I appreciate you guys trying. We do not dress in this attire, and the moves do not match the lyrics nor are they culturally accurate.
I was gonna say they seemed a bit off rhythm and didn’t completely seem to match the tone. Some seemed happy to do it and others not as much. Some seemed to put WAAAYYY more hip into moves than others. My sister was a ballet dancer so I’m pretty familiar with choreography and matching moves to music and this was not it. The moments of definitive drums were often paired with fluid movements. While not a hula expert by any means it was easy to see it was an attempt but not a good one.
Dear Mahina, do you know if there is a video on youtube of a dance to this same song that is culturally correct in terms of movement? I have found many videos but I don't know enough to distinguish between authentic polynesian dance and an artistic interpretation. Thank you Rada 🙏💖
@@venn7276And it's litterally writed in the title in addition to that, but let them be, some people just need to criticize everything and can't let people be happy... (Excluding the OP of the comment, she's a lot more kind with her last sentence)
@darkdestroyer4228 I'm sharing because it is my business. I'm a Kanaka Maoli and a professional HULA dancer. It is my KULIANA to share the right information. Mahalo.
This is definitely not in Hawaii and not a traditional hula, but I think you all did so well in your performance and appreciate your interpretation. Great job
That's good that you like the dance, but it is not hula they are definitely are Not hawaiians either because We will know better than this is not hula. And if you ask me , this should study more and learn the moves of hula before they just claim that this is hula
@@linalu5881it's sad all y'all getting angry for nothing over a remake of a disney movie dance, especially with one that much famous as it's litterally named in the title and that is from one of the most know studio in the world aka disney. So, insulting people dance and skills for nothing (as it is made exactly in the way they do in the movie), u don't bring fame at all to ur country doing that. Pretty sad, considering just correcting her saying it's not hawaiian would be enoug and a lot more kind.
@darkdestroyer4228 Maybe don't call it a hawaiian dance when it's NOT. We take our dance seriously for other cultures to just take it and make it their own and not even take the time to learn and practice our culture/dance. This is an insult to our hawaiian culture Thank you very much
@@jru7908quit being a killjoy, and let people do what they want Staline. It's a Lilo and Stitch dance from disney, even the song was made for it, which is both very popular worldwide, including the choregraphy, it's litterally in the title. Ur the one who need to "quit embarassing".
It is hawaiiam, but in the 2002' movie lilo and stitch from disney style, so it's fiction. People can't read title and description anymore or what ? Too much lazy maybe ?
@darkdestroyer4228 they are using the music from the movie but the dance is not the same. in the movie the hula is close to accurate to real hula, this choreography is not
As a Hawaiian, this is insulting. Hula has meaning.The movements have meaning. Even the attire, flowers, adornments have meaning. No disrespect to the dancers, as they are probably unaware. But the instructor should have researched better. I don't mind haole adopting Hawaiian culture, as that helps it perpetuate, but please be respectful. This is not so.
Hello, I am the Multicultural Club President of my school and we are currently preparing the AAPI Heritage Month Assembly. This is AWESOME and I was wondering if we can use your choreography for Hawaiian dance!
I’ve never been to Hawaii, and I don’t know how to do hula dancing. I would love to learn and I cannot sleep. Tell you it looks very similar to belly dancing
@@jru7908it is. They made it exactly like it is in the Lilo and Stitch movie, as they wanted to. It's is mentionned everywhere in the vid. Idk what happen to u in ur life to be such agressive and angry but god just go see a therapist.
@@linalu5881 good lord, learn how to read, this comment was explaining enough and not even mention hula in it. I really wish to have a facepalm emoji sometime.
@@darkdestroyer4228The emoji would be for you. It's literally NOT the same dance. Seriously, two seconds to type it and find the actual hula Disney used .
we appreciate all ur feedbacks but actually, the group has no intended to ruin the culture dance in Hawaii. The group actually made their own choreography for their performance tasks and followed the directions in the criteria.
Most disrespectful thing I saw today towered my cultural. Mahalo nui loa for that!! Not even close to the basics Hula moves and the outfits looks horrible.
I think not reading a title is more disrecpectful than that tbh. And even more not knowing about lilo and stitch which is loved and famous worldwide and made a lot of tourism back then after 2002's (which, back then, nobody ever complain) as even the music was made for this movie.
@BoNe_MeAltherian I'm👏🏽calling👏🏽B👏🏽S👏🏽 First of all, a simple Google will have translation for the song. Then learn the appropriate hand movements to match the words. They're just throwing together VERY random movements.
@@Randoigbelp the song is not hawaiian either lmao, being angry for nothing like that, how much sad it is... Everything belong to the movie Lilo and Stitch, the song was also made especially for the movie, movement and choregraphy too. Y'all never complain back then, especially when it bring tourist and so money in Hawaii.
This disappointed me as a hula dancer, none of the motions were accurate to the words and the outfits are way off. It looked like you guys were making fun of the culture almost flailing around your arms in a grass skirt calling it hula. Disappointed for what everyone thinks hula is.
This is an insult to my Hawaiian culture and heritage. I’ve trained to dance hula since I was 5, 32 years of experience and majority of those steps used is not traditional and in Hawaiian culture we tend to honor our traditional ways. Please stop mocking and disrespecting my culture and heritage, it doesn’t even match the actual Kumu Mark Keali’i Ho’omalu’s true choreography of this song who is the singer along with Kamehameha School.
Our deepest apologies! our intention is to not ruined the traditional dance of Hawaiian culture and we from the bottom of our heart honored your traditional ways (Hawaiian). We didn't expect that some will view our choreographed performance as an insult or in negative way. We just want to share our own talents and skills but we also admit for being unaware and insensitive to some viewers.
@@junila_only Hawaiian dance is not something that you can just decide what type of movements should go with the song. Each movement is intentional and it matches the lyrics of the song. In this way, you are appropriating because you are misrepresenting the entire culture. You meant well however, you should have done some research before hand.

Hay algún vídeo que explique cada paso de la coreografía?
This is not hula I don't know what distances but it's not hula
No son hawaianas. Este baile es un intento de entretener...nada más
Not real hula.
What the heck. As a Kanaka Maoli and a hula dancer myself. We don't dance like this. This is not hula attire. But Mahalo for trying.
Its a little more like belly dance, but not that either. I guess this is for a tourist show.

There's no such thing as not traditional hula. Hula is part of a culture NOT a style of dance.
