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.
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.
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
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!
hindi ito hawaiian, hindi lumalapit sa hula o tumutugma sa lyrics ng kanta ang mga sayaw na galaw, kung gusto mong tawaging fun dance, sabihin mo na lang sa halip na "Hawaiian dance" . e ʻoluʻolu e aʻo pono i ka neʻe ʻana o ka hula.
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.
