Aloha,I'm a Lua & Lomi practitioner here on the Big Island in Hawai`i. I would like 2 give u high props on this video, very well done! Much mahalo 4 being respectful & correct on the info. Be safe & Happy Holidays. A hui hou malama pono...
I was told during the late 19th and early 20th century. Many of the Hawaiian customs and arts were banned. So the Lua practicitionars placed their art around the Kole Kole pass area near were scolfield army base is today. They would practice their art on unspecting strangers who wondered intobtheir area.
Thanks for leading to this comprehensive source for Lua techniques. I like that the techniques have only 3 parts, not that opponent just punches and then waits for you to perform 5 strikes and 3 throws on him :D
i know im a year late but the aztec weapon you are thinking of is a macuahuitl (i may have spelled it wrong but its something along those lines) and i believe the blunt version is called a macana
It is highly disrespectful for a non practitioner of Lua to tell stories about it. Especially inaccurate ones. Why do u think we practice Lua in the dark? Because it is not for a foreigner's eyes and tongue to once again misspeak our heritage. Auwe no ho I e. The art of Lua is ha ma u for Hawaiians. We protect our treasures by closing our mouths and never TELLING THE HA'OLE.
And BTW we have nine islands, Nīhoa is underwater. Do not believe everything you hear from a non Hāwaiian. Every Lua strike is a death blow. I am haumea Lua.
@@princessruth9155 You will strike a death blow to your own culture by excluding others from learning about it. This is nothing but traditionalist nonsense. You guys complain about your culture disappearing. Foreigners tried to remove your culture, but past is past. Now you will ensure its disappearance by keeping petty secrets. Also, what is this unnecessary threat about how "Every Lua strike is a death blow."? Calm down. By the way, there were no death blows thrown by John Matua when he fought Tank Abbott.
The maoris in nz do hav have connections with Hawaii. Same ancestors all polynesians have same ancestors hence languages and practices are alot similar
jay92 _ definitely im born and raised in hawaii and my father was 100 percent hawaiian and mother is hapa japanese hawaiian but I recently took a Dna test and found that i have many close cousins whom are of maori! Many similarities in language and legends but having my dna results just solidifies what was past down through generations. Maori have origin legends of where the come from is hawaiki and they subbed a k for our okina which is a gutteral stop or backwards apostrophe but when translated in hawaiian hawaiki is hawaiʻi
Actually you’re wrong Hawaiian and Māori people are of the same homeland and are connected. The indigenous Hawaiian people call themselves kanaka Maoli and the Māori cal themselves tangata Māori it’s the same thing out of all Polynesian cultures the Māori and Maoli are the most similar in behavior culture ways and traditions and language. Also the rapanui too many similarities and all three are in the most far flung areas it’s because they came from the same voyaging people. So yes they are related and share a connection with each other
warchild the picture is a painting made by a local Hawaiian artist named Brook Parker. That painting in particular was called The O’ahu Eight I believe.
The artwork used is by Brook Kapukuniahi Parker.... HawaiianAtArt.org. & Herb Kawainui Kane you used the artwork without giving the artist credit. You used artwork that has copyright without permission. Hawaiian's would say "NOT PONO".
Lua is the Hawaiian martial Art it is not based off hula. There is a connection in that, as the Hawaiian Martial Arts was banned practitioners had to go underground and disguise it as a dance hence the hula
'ōlohe po'e of wa kāhiko strictly possed and practiced ku'ialua, or sacred movement for the enlightenment of life and followed the three sacred laws. The 'ōlohe po'e where a subset of people who lived with the kapu system and Ali'i. It was the waring chiefs of Hawai'i nei who enlisted the 'ōlohe po'e for warfare and tactics, to weapons to hand-to-hand. Warrior life was vastly different to the way of the 'ōlohe po'e life, peace and servitude to mastering movement through 'ai ha'a, wailua, sacred movement through the various 'ai and governed by three sacred law's im comparison to war, war and trauma through our kōkō.
Sorry, I may be the "odd man" out with my comment, but with all due respect, probably better if you not inform or educate on this subject if you're not fully invested or have full knowledge in the language & cultural practices.
Sorry, but with all due respect, it's "probably better" to stop complaining. Be glad somebody even bothered to put some research into the techniques of Lua. People like you get so upset about how you've lost your culture and arts. Then, when somebody actually puts their time into learning about your heritage, you get rude and defensive. Foreigners may have tried to take away your culture, but snobby, exclusive individuals like you will make it disappear faster.
@Puna (Aloha 9 Vegas) Imagine leaving your homeland for Vegas LOL. Couldn't afford the cost of living back home, huh? American citizenship sounds very convenient for you.

Certain Maori Are the Acient Tahitians Tainui - Tu Wheretoa especially. Acient Tahitians taught hawaiians the Art of War and navigation.

The "a" sound (like in tapu, or kapu) is pronounced "ah" (like "awe"some)
You pronounce the u's pretty good!
It's pronounced Kah-Pu Koo-Why-Ah-Looah.

@@mnmgfdhjiuyzxcasdqwere7786 cultural appropriation at it's best.
@@Puna_G You clearly have no intelligent reply to make. You lost. Deal with it.
LOL typical invasive american response.
