    Got a mad amount of respect for keeping your traditions alive and keepign a connection not just to what was, but to what is. Tradition is only valuable if it connects us to our ancestors. If there is no connection then it is worthless.
    Stay awesome.

    To be honest, in retrospect, all the Polynesian Cultural Center vids I've enjoyed have been, to some degree, about connecting the traditional to the modern day. (Can you smell what the (actual, literal) rock is cooking?) But this was an awesome connection video: the connections formed from dance & music are maybe only second to language. Here you've broken it all down and drawn a thread through the generations. Fantastic work to all the performers here!

      It was probably done on purpose. It's just some extra fuel on his vest/chest. I know a lot of performers will do that on purpose for the effect, but he could have also just accidently brushed his chest against his knife.

Interesting in the beginning, then you get entertained as you keep watching then sweet and touching at the end. Good job! Hope to see Kap on June 14 at the PCC for family vacation.

      @@liu_hou_yu lol,thanks for the good laugh..😂👏🏻 I guess,the Samoans would be the Fire Benders of Polynesia..now jus gotta figure out the other elements of some of the other Polynesia islands. New Zealand Maori could prolly be the Air benders becuz they are big in doing the Hongi(the breathing greeting)..Hawaiians can be the Water benders,since they were surfers(and creators of it)..and Tahiti prolly could be the Earth benders,becuz of their statues,idk..still tryna figure which should take the Earth nation,lol..

    Iolani Palace,
    And the Polynesian Cultural Center!
