=============
What is Hula?
Hula engages the hips, arms, and hands in a graceful, gentle manner which reflect the chants and songs they accompany. Costumes add to the meaning of the songs and usually involve a pā’ū skirt or a holokū (Hawaiian formal gown) and flowers strung or woven around the neck and head.
-----------
What is ‘Ori Tahiti?
‘Ori Tahiti is most recognized by fast-shaking hips and powerful movements to the beat of drums also known as ʻōteʻa. Extravagant headdresses or flower crowns and woven hip bands are often worn while performing to showcase the beauty of Tahitian culture and accentuate hip movement.
