i wish i could dance like that. my mom was a dancer (my aunty says she was one of the best in her day) and my aunty tina is a gorgeous dancer. why did the hawaiian skip me?? lol very lovely performance, tho.

Actually, many of them that are dancing at the Merrie Monarch are Hawaiians or mix of Hawaiian /Asian decent, they only allow native Hawaiians to compete, but for the most part, these girls were born and raised in Hawaii and learned how to dance at a young age, so although some of them may look Asian it is not at all surprising that they can dance so well. If you want to be surprised by Asians dancing the hula, the flight attendants of Japan Airlines formed a team and can dance very gracefully.

Check out Hawaiian Wedding Song Dance, The one with Andy Wiliams. The hula gestures are very charming and expressive to the familiar words of the song. Yes the movements are a language.

TYVM to "AlohaRon" for the inspiring video. Performance worth seeing and what makes the hula competition alive.

LOL - These girls are NOT from "Asia", they're from North AMERICA... so they're "Americans" (even if some are Hawaiian, Hawaii is part of the U.S.)
