About Polynesian Dance Uk:

Polynesian dance has lots of styles and variations from the slow graceful
hula of hawaii to the effervescent energy of the tahitian o'tea.

ori tahiti
the fast hip movements of women dancers is the trademark of tahitian dance and is known as the tamure, or ote’a. Ori tahiti means tahitian dance.

ote'a (oh tay ah)
the most spectacular of all polynesian dances, performed by a group of male dancers (ote'a tane) or a group of female dancers (ote'a vahine), or sometimes male and female dancers (ote'a amui). It is inspired by old legends; the themes consist of a certain number of variations, the length of each one being determined by the beats of the to'ere drums. The ote'a are usually performed in traditional costumes (a'ahu mo're).

aparima (apar reema)
definition: 'apa (kiss) rima (hands), the kiss of hands. The aparima tells a story set to music and mimed by gracious gestures of the hands. It is slow paced and graceful and similar to the hula. The aparima is a group dance inspired by scenes of daily life.
