Samoan girl dancing at a kaalolo

Lisa LTK dancing at a Samoan Traditional event called a Kaalolo, its to celebrate the opening of newly repaired Church in Fusi,Savaii Samoa.Its a traditional Samoan way of giving & presenting gifts to the church from other churches,families, or anyone who wants to give a gifts. & in our case its on behalf from Peti's family (minister's wife).Its an honor to be chosen & given the opportunity to represent your family in such an event.

Some reason I ended up watching this video, and this exactly what I wanted to learn when I was young. Shame my family took me overseas but my heart always stay with the traditional way of a girl, to learn more of who I am and where I came from.

[@lopeti]

+DaysIslndgurl thats really good. Im a boy and Im tongan and I also have the same goal as you. I want to keep in touch with my traditional/cultural ways. And also explore the rich cutlure and history of my people. Its 2015 hope you still going for it!

[@ahoosifoou4211]

[@OneLuvLilo]

Never knew what a Kaalolo was. Thanks for sharing. Still got ALOT to learn about our cultural. Thought has crossed my mind to live in Samoa for a couple of years to learn and understand our culture. PROUD to be Samoan. Magaia le siva...Malo lava. :)

[@samoanparadisellkepz3260]

Thank you, yes I agree, all the dancing, & noise making is showing all parts of we are happy to give what we have & what we can to help..Its amazing how easily we can forget our culture & traditions, especially for us Samoans who live outside our Samoan homeland, we don't realize how important and amazing our culture is until you actually participate and sit and observe & listen to all the things they do, & for me I enjoy & loved it, it was an amazing & great experience i will never forget.

[@finaluavai]

[@Pafuki25]

Nice Video! Nice exchange in the Laugas. Didnt really like the Alo talked to Le Tufuga. Sounded abit cocky and rude. Fair enough Le Tufuga was struggling at times, but it is not a reason to start talking to someone. I liked the way Le Tufuga calmly responded to some of Alos banter. I love listening to Laugas.

[@samsaluni]

thank u

It is a formal gift presentation at the opening of a significant building in a village, normally a church. Each family is led in procession by a taupou and huge fine mat.

[@miracleblessing6521]

[@secretavenger9444]

What is a Kaalolo?

[@hvtama03]

Malo lava le sa'asa'a i le tausala. Matagofie au taga.

[@teatime9545]

Ese ma le matagofie o la tatou aganu'u. Lalelei le taupou, malo le sa'asa'a.

[@kitaratago4696]

tell me why she wasnt doing anything with her hands im sorry to say thus but she looked like she didnt know what do

[@reda8954]

Kaalolo e moemoe kaupou its like that laga la ua solia fagua o isi guu guessing you’re from overseas

[@L3a98]

This is not a taualuga. A ta’alolo requires the taupou to lead the procession of the village holding a Nifo oti, hence the reason she doesn’t do much with her hands as you would with a taualuga.

[@gfirisua6654]

I'm afraid Samoan original traditional dances and songs is no longer practiced....

[@Laietown99]

Bahaha at 12:55
