[@manuelcalero4872]

Hace muchos años tuve la oportunidad de ver en vivo este Ballet de Tahiti, me encanto y no he visto otro Ballet como este. Deslumbrante, es maravilloso.

After watching this performance it has become one of my favorites!

How nice lovely Tahitian ladies, thank you.

[@dmclindasue]

Very fun to watch. Makes me smile.

[@claudebruvier6393]

Bravo, bravo. Je reviens sur cette formidable vidéo où tous les acteurs sont admirables. Continuez à nous faire rêver car la métropole (de france) en a bien besoin. Bises à tous. Bravo, bravo. I come back on this wonderful video where all the actors are admirable. Continue to make us dream because the metropolis (of France) needs it. Kisses to all.

[@GAR9BALDI]

Tahiti was so lucky to be under French control that let them continue their culture and enjoy it,

[@StevenSmith-mv4ge]

It is NEVER good to be under the rule of anyone NOT of their own choosing!

[@stanspb763]

Was that supposed to be funny? The French in the Pacific, Asia and Africa were terrible for those cultures. Only the Americans were worse in regions such as Vietnam. Millions were murdered for trying to be left alone. No one misses them finally being driven out..

[@EngelbertKarcovnik]

You need a history lesson. All of this that you seeing, hardly survived and is practised ferly recently.

[@wealovelove9648]

They have specific art of choreo and creative movement still inspire from nature..a liitle bit modern thab of west pasific island like Papua....not too far but they have make improvement ...papua dance remain monotonuous in movement....but papua has specific kind of song..with good singer talent...papuan song more attractive in sound .

[@efrans2627]

Papua so ugly bro 🤣

[@AGC828]

Beautifully done. And the women were also very beautiful as well. Q: I guess the costumes are as close to being as they were long ago (ancient times). As the "chest decorations" were "kept in place" for the tourists as they might have kids in the audience. So they couldn't do an "adult" version of the show...which I'm also guessing would be "as it was done originally". As nudity wasn't a concern. No one wearing Nike sports bras/panties/bikini briefs for the guys...as you see a lot of in Hawiian Hula...

[@roderickreilly9666]

No wonder the crew of the Bounty mutinied! 😆

[@clintonearlwalker]

That's exactly right. The Bounty logbook survived, I'm reading through it right now. Bligh described a "Heiva" "The Preist left off speaking and the Heiva begun by the Men jumping and throwing their Legs and Arms into violent and odd motions, which the Women kept time with, and as they were conveniently cloathed for the Purpose, their persons were generally exposed to full view, frequently standing on one Leg and keeping the other up, giving themselves the most lascivious and wanton motions. As this was for some time perormed at the farthest part of the Ring from us, out of compliment the Women were directed to come nearer, and they accordingly advanced with the Cloaths up, and went throught the same wanton gentures which on their return ended the Heiva which is called Opah. In the course of this extraordinary performance the Queen and Cheif Women were highly delighted, and asked particularly if we had no such Heivas in England. They felt no kind of shame, altho it is a fact that no people, unless in these dances, are more cautious and guard their persons with greater decency. They have nevertheless a great want of delicacy, as the performance of certain actions is very frequently wihout any reserve the Topic of conversation."--Bounty Logbook November 21, 1788.
