Traditional Polynesian dance - MANGAREVA ISLAND, French Polynesia 

And cook islands

It's a weird dance. Very different than Tahitian dancing where they use the hips. Not much shaking here as you can see.

No because it’s not a Tahitian dance.

might be similar but this was indeed filmed in Mangareva. Here's a video I took from the Cook Islands >> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RaUgOveNZhA.html

This is definitely not a Rarotongan dance It’s Mangarevan (Gambiers archipelago of French Polynesia).

@@Manoatevarua I know just very similar to Rarotongan drums

It’s the same thing

it's not a real "tradional" instrument, it's what we call a Punu Sao, it's a metal box with Arnott's biscuit inside, people start using playing like a fa'atete because it got a nice metal sound

Why??? 🤣😭

There is no goat in french polynesia

@@Te_arii_no_bora-boraThere are goats in French Polynesia… tons of them actually

@@Te_arii_no_bora-boraSome can be found in the wilderness as well

@@Manoatevarua i live in Tahiti and i never see a goat in my life ,

Which one so many ... tikopia?? Sikaaina?? Mungiki??..

You can reach out to my friend Olivier Lenoir. He also doubles as a guide in Tahiti. He is a choreographer and is in touch with local dance groups >> www.iaoranatahitiexpeditions.com/en/home
