Hula Kahiko, ancient hula (dance) - Jun Hasegawa (dancer)

上を向いて笑おう Special　/ anan No.1864 magazineworld.j...
Many hula dances are considered to be a religious performance, as they are dedicated to, or honoring, a Hawaiian goddess or god.

[@calvinschumaker8655]

From my experience teaching hula in several different countries and to several different age groups she is not that bad. Yes she is a little stiff in some areas, however, overall her presentation and intensity is spot on. This is an intense hula not an ego hula like some may suggest. Nicely done... work on fluidity a little more and you will do great. Mahalo Nui Loa for sharing our culture in a POSITIVE way and form. Aloha

Je decouvre et je pense au haka des maoris avec lev hula Hawaïen...intéressant j'aimerais bien suivre un cours...mais où ?

[@DonnaBarrHerself]

May I respectfully ask what is being said in the language of the dance?

[@johnthomasdesign]

Kea'au is a long strip of wilderness Pana'ewa forest wears a mantele of pandanus Laid to waste are the grove of 'ōhi'a The clumps of lehua stand torn in fragments They are burnt grey from the heat of the goddess Puna smolders mid the bowling of rocks Reduced to ashes by the woman The plain of 'oluea is a bed of live coals Puna is strewn with fire clean to 'Āpua Probed here and there Overturned clear to the sea Probed here and there Overturned clear to the mountains Desolate Debased Shattered and scattered!

[@edyr]

wow look at the technique

[@a-un7952]

すっごい伝統的なフラが見たくて探してて、見終わったらまさかの日本語！　日本の芸能人かい！

[@OLYMPICHELLO]

AWESOME PRAYER DANCE. Replace the vid guy cause he missed a lot of full body movement; therefore complete body motion prayers. There should be a camera for closeups & 3 vid camers placed at triangular locations with d dancer in d center for full body motion recording. It made d event less spectacular n unprofessional.

[@albertubald.t7024]

I met aunty pualani she's an awesom woman and an excellent kumu hula but don't ask a Japanese to be gracious and delicate isn't in their nature

[@zyzll]

[@listen2878]

めっちゃ凄い❤❤❤これこそ、私の求めるもの！

[@Clhoe-iy1rh]

急に日本語聞こえてびっくりした

[@anisimov13]

Танец не очень. У женщины движения унылые. Мужчины лучше исполняют танцы хула и кахико

[@johnarmlovesguam]

Respect.

[@ririaaloha7738]

潤ちゃん大好き。今はハワイにいるのでしょうか。

[@ryusei-hase]

潤さん、ダンス💃あっぱれ❗顔好き❗

[@coconutmilch2351]

do u know which song this is?

[@funkedafied143]

Swehe lol.. Very stiff.. Kanakas

[@celestialskye1]

Next time make sure that you film the ENTIRE body! This was a waste, and did no service to this chant.

[@MauliOla]

When you don’t film her whole body the whole time, it allows for a level of protection of the dance - so that others who have not put in the same dedication and hours of study cannot copy or duplicate, or also steal the mana/power of the dance without truly understanding it. This lineage of dancing is very special and I’m surprised that even this video exists here on KZbin ❤️.

[@PinkDiamond24]

TVで潤ちゃんの本格的フラを観て、日本のおばさまたちが趣味でやってるのと全然違い、真剣な神聖なモノで、潤ちゃんも真剣でしたね❗感動しました。せっかく浴衣👘も着たし日本人町の盆踊りにも行ってみると言って炭鉱節を踊る潤ちゃんを観て、顔もスタイルもsoulもなんて素敵で美しいんだろう‼️😍､､､やっぱりダントツの日本一のモデルの中のモデルです👏👍､潤ちゃん大好き😍💓💓

[@anifelty89]

This is a terrible video. Hula is about the communication of the dance, not the ego of the performer.

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

Says the woman with the generic Pocahontas picture...

[@junep879]

can you explain the dance meaning? seems like having a lot of meaning for some ceremony. I love her eye expression.

[@mailamakua602]

Amazing form and great strength.
