a culture so beautiful, wonderfully designed by our Ancestors... Faafetai I nai oo tatou Tua'a... Love the dance and your family dance...proud Samoan!!!
Beautifully performed... Keeping the Samoan tradition "Fa'a Samoa" in a Country born away from the Motherland is a great Challenge. But like us when we were young...Speaking the Samoan Lingo at home and learning the Culture was an eye opener. even though we classed ourselves as "KiwiMoan" (N.Z born Samoan)....Juggling the 2 Worlds of Culture (Samoan & European) was a challenge but at the end of the day, "IT WAS ALL WORTH IT"...Malo a le tu malosi i Measina ma Fa'a Aganu'u Samoa. Be Proud and Humble in Pride of your Culture, It's what Clothes us and Identifies us of "WHO and WHERE we come from through our Parents Bloodline. "POLY-PROUD...POLY-PRIDE"
This performance is lovely!!💝💝These girls are gifted in the way they show the actions telling us the story in a beautiful way of the Samoan culture!!Im so proud to be a Samoan myself!!

These Samoan dancers who live overseas would never have danced this good if it wasn't for the big help by Mary-jane Schwenke who is running a dance school for not only Samoans but also for other pacific cultures. Glad to see how they do the Samoan siva so well in fact better than most Samoans who live in the islands.
Keith Dawson the oil on their bodies don't represent Samoan culture, you stupid puki'o. It represents purity of the young ladies. Not only Samoans use the oil on the girls doing the taualuga.
the oil on the body represents your virginity. if you don't have oil on yourself, you are not a virgin. whenever we have a taualuga, the dancer must be a pure virgin.
Yes you are right. I just wish that they correct this so generations after generations dont get confused. Great to promote our culture and much respect to Mary Jane but she needs to understand that Fiti doesnt mean Fiji. Fitiuta n fiti tai is north n south of the manua islands...i believe...❤
You really expect Samoans to keep marrying Samoans until the end of time? We practically all related now but be my guest if you wanna be like Kiuga having a shower with his cousin. Open your mind up sis.
Mixxed Honeyy I’d rather not be inbred. You do have a point though, Island guys think dating palagis is like dating Island women, just choose one you like and you’re set they already know how to do fe’aus and look after kids and grandparents etc. I always teach my poly brothers to be smart when dating outside, not every race has the same hardworking upbringing and unconditional love for our elders that we have. Same thing with poly women, I’ve seen dozens of polys never seeing their parents because their palagi partner doesn’t like visiting them. Some Palagis can do the culture and some others can’t you just have to be observant.
Bullet Boom Boom idk maybe it’s just me , i was raised into a strict samoan family . not allowed to date out of the race because our culture should never be forgotten . sum like that
Mixxed Honeyy You can still maintain your culture dating outside of your race. You just have to make sure they are willing to embrace Samoan culture and not take you away from it. Hard to find those sort of Palagis though thats for sure. I told my cousin the moment his palagi wife started stopping him from seeing his parents just leave her, he didn’t listen. He hasn’t seen his parents for years and I know it saddens them but thats on him for not picking up on the toxic signs.
Can I ask why the girls don't sing the songs themselves? They would of had to traditionally, so why not now? Seems to ruin the atmosphere when watching in real life having to wait for a song to start.
As a Tongan we don't sing as we dance and it looks beautiful, but I do love it when Samoans lip-sync as they dance, makes it look more like a performance, my 2cents.
Usually there is a choir or a group that sit and sing behind the girls. That hardly happens now a days due to performances as such where you can't take your singers around. The girls don't sing their hearts out when dancing, it takes away the beauty of the dance it self. Traditionally? they never sang and danced, a taupou had her singers behind her :) Anways.... well done to the lovely ladies who stood there so graciously while waiting for the music. Thats life, sh!t happens, its not the end of the world!
a culture so beautiful, wonderfully designed by our Ancestors... Faafetai I nai oo tatou Tua'a... Love the dance and your family dance...proud Samoan!!!
Its actually amazing watching this sped up a bit. Shows how they were all in sync.

Beautiful job Mary Jane
Does anyone know the name of the song ??
Well done..
What’s the song called? For the girls dance? ✨😍
The beautiful song is Tatau a Samoa sung by the Golden Ali'is
👍👍👍👏 awesome!
too beautiful 😊
Just wondering what the oil on the body represents...
The oil on The represents the Samoan culture dumb jokes
Keith Dawson the oil on their bodies don't represent Samoan culture, you stupid puki'o. It represents purity of the young ladies. Not only Samoans use the oil on the girls doing the taualuga.
If the oil dries up then your getting a hiding from your parents lol.
Its to make the girls look posh and shiny. Cause people always gaze at something shiny.
the oil on the body represents your virginity. if you don't have oil on yourself, you are not a virgin. whenever we have a taualuga, the dancer must be a pure virgin.
Who sings the Samoan song that the girls are performing.
Justin Bieber
+Matalena Sala oooohhhh Canada!!!
+Matalena Sala The Golden Ali'i's.
+Jaks2much lol
Beautiful
It’s not Fiji…. It’s Fitiuta (Samoan island)
Yes you are right. I just wish that they correct this so generations after generations dont get confused. Great to promote our culture and much respect to Mary Jane but she needs to understand that Fiti doesnt mean Fiji. Fitiuta n fiti tai is north n south of the manua islands...i believe...❤

Bullet Boom Boom “cousins” 🤦🏽♀️. and it’s better like that because most palagis don’t even know how to care for a poly guy lmao
