ONLINE CLASSES
We live in a new world!
We don't need to fly, or attend events in person anymore. So let's connect from all over the world and share our passion for our Tahitian journey!
Tahitian Dance
- The best way to communicate with your body and emotions -
What is
Tahitian dance?
Tahitian dance, called "Ori Tahiti" in the local language, is the beautiful traditional dance of French Polynesia.
People dance it at ceremonies, weddings, parties and pretty much at any occasion. It is a huge part of their culture and every move has meaning!
Know your body
People usually express their emotions using words.
If those words are negative, they can hurt not only the speaker, but others as well. An alternative way of expressing emotions, both positive and negative, is through dance!
We can show you how, with Tahitian dance techniques.
These techniques involve the use of muscle groups that are not usually utilised in day-to-day life. By training those muscles and dancing with music, you gain the necessary flexibility to express your emotions.
Once you know how to move your body and express your emotions through dance, you will also notice a boost in your confidence!
Confidence
ELEGANT AND SENSUAL
Self-love
Everything leads up to this! Even if you have a busy and stressful life, you will know how to remind yourself of who you really are and how to bring positive energy into your life.
Show me the energy that is sleeping inside you and let's release it together!
TYPES OF DANCE
OTEA
Otea is a dance that is performed to the rhythm of various types of drums, the sounds of which fill us with power! We dace it using dynamic hip movements.
Aparima is performed using melodic songs. By dancing dramatically and with emotion, it touches people's hearts and fascinates them. The emotions and the lyrics of the songs are expressed through slow hip and arm motions.
