- The Samoan Fine Mat (or Ie Toga) was the original Pacific currency. In Samoa today it is mainly used for special occasions - the finer the mat the better the skill!
Our expert Yvonne Maea-Brown teaches Destiny and Pati how to present and fold the ie toga as part of a Samoan custom known as the si'i alofa - a show of support from one family to another at important events and gatherings.

Very nice ladies.. when I was young we had no choice you had to learn this (way back when) it was often followed up by a slippa upside my head taking away from the honor of being part of the ceremony . Now I like to educate our youth in the manner of what a beautiful display of our Culture, & to take pride in the beautiful work, Time & discipline it took to make.
Keep making video like this..keep our culture rich..
