Hawaiian hula dance. Hawaiian hula - dance of expressive gods

In secluded places on the islands of Hawaii, men dance, their movements are strong and small, but graceful. To the rhythm of a polished pumpkin, set by the precise blows of the singer. The ocean waves compete with the ringing rhythm of the pumpkins, with their singing, and their hula.

Kahiko is the most ancient form blasphemy. It was never danced in a grass skirt, nor was it accompanied by playing ukulele ukulele. It is rather a solemn Khula with a sacred meaning and for the realization of a strong, meaningful purpose.

It was the only style until 1893, when the art of hula was reborn (I will talk about this in parts 2 and 3).
And by the way, Hula was originally called "Ha`a". The name was changed to "Hula" at the beginning of the 19th century.

How did Hula Kahiko appear?

Hula has its origins in ancient history. There are many different legends surrounding the origin of hula:

• According to one legend, Laka - the goddess of hula - invented the dance on sacred place in Ka"ana, on the island of Molokai.
• Another legend tells us that Hi"iaka danced it to appease her angry sister Pel"e, the goddess of volcanoes, and this happened on the north shore of the Kauai valley at Ha"ena.
• The third says that Pele herself performed it, fleeing from her other sister Namakoakaha "I (goddess of the oceans). When Pele finally reached the chain of craters on the Big Island, where the waves could no longer reach her, she danced the first hula dance, which meant, that she defeated her sister.

Today, the patroness of hula is the goddess Laka, and she is mentioned most often when it comes to modern Hula.

However, ancient hula in the Kahiko style usually dances "mele", which describes the story of only two sisters - Hi"aka and Pele.

The Kahiko style is an energetic style, requiring strength and dexterity, and devoid of such familiar gentle movements and smoothness. It is danced with a stern look and rather sharp movements - in tribute to its gods and roots (pay attention to the photo - the look and gestures of a woman (wahine) dancing in the kahiko style).

Dancing in this style is not easy - but this is what true Hawaiian hula is.

Dancers-Peacemakers, or the shamanic clan of Ariori

It is known that until the year 1200 (that is, before the priest Paao came to Hawaii, who, in fact, carried out a cultural and religious revolution on the islands) there was a special shaman clan Ariori, and the direction in which they worked was called PEACE-MAKING.

All its members mastered such arts as:

• the art of LIVING IN PEACE WITH YOURSELF,
• CREATE HARMONIOUS RELATIONSHIPS between individuals,
• AND ALSO between people and nature and within nature itself.

It is the DIRECTION TO BRINGING PEACE that is the DISTINCTIVE FEATURE of the shamans of Polynesia.
While most shamans in other countries follow the Path of the Warrior, concentrating on developing strength and conquering themselves -
Polynesian shamans follow the path that kahuna of the 20th century. Serge Kahili King, in his book The Urban Shaman, calls the Way of the Adventurer, which means being focused on love, aloha in Hawaiian, and the discovery of the Self.

At that time there was only one dance troupe. It consisted only of men, and kahuna men (that is, each of them was a master and could teach). This troupe danced at the court of the current paramount leader, and then the king of the islands.

Her responsibilities included such amazing tasks as:

1) the appearance of an heir to the leader/king (i.e. maintaining the reproductive functions of the couple),

2) and maintaining peace and prosperity in Hawaii (i.e. creating and maintaining a certain cultural and spiritual atmosphere among the authorities and people through the power of their skills and knowledge).

How was it possible to achieve such a mystical effect through dance?

“As for the SACRED HULA DANCE, the performer plunged into a kind of trance state, meditating on the image of the deity, spirit or content of the dance before performing.
The dance itself was a carefully thought-out choreographic production, impact force about which was determined by the dancer’s ability to ENTER THE STATE, corresponding to the story told by the dance - for example, states of love, conflict-free relationships, gratitude, joy, etc.
This is exactly how the transfer of KNOWLEDGE from the kahunas to ordinary people took place.
Because the TRUE PURPOSE OF HOLY Blasphemy is to educate and inspire the public."

That is why in ancient times anyone could dance Hula. Kapu- prohibited (analogue taboo in New Zealand). This art was sacred, Kahiko Hula was danced only by Kumu Hula (teachers) and students who were trained and initiated into Hula dancers.

Kumu Hula, in fact, performed the tasks of priests in ancient Hawaii (not only them, but they included).

And, since before 1820. Hawaiians did not have a written language, Kumu Hula were responsible for preserving the genealogy royal family, stories of significant battles, the history and culture of the people, as well as stories from the lives of their gods and goddesses.

That is why hula kahiko was taught only to those who were worthy of this knowledge (the potential of the candidates was determined by kahuna). As a rule, his knowledge was passed on from generation to generation. For the family itself and for the child, from that day on, the study of hula received the main priority, and the secrets of the art of hula had to be kept strictly within it, without going beyond the family.

Children chosen for training were taken from their families and lived in the Halau, the hula school, with their teacher - just as children in India were given to be trained by gurus. These schools were always located in secluded places, emphasizing the sacredness of the knowledge received. The students practiced strict discipline from the very beginning, dancing almost to the point of exhaustion.

My mentor Kumu Kaipo told me that her mother taught her to dance hula from the age of 3, forcing her to perfect just one basic movement ka"o (!) for 4 hours every day.

Then, when the Kumu Hula were satisfied with the work of their students, a great lu"au celebration was held and Kahiko was performed for all the spectators.
Kumu Hula sings the song oli in a special recitative and beats the rhythm, and his students dance Kahiko with military precision and severity - as if they are going into battle. At the end of the dance, all men sing in unison the beginning of the song oli, with which they began the dance.

Today, this ancient form of hula is still performed and is a source of pride for the Hawaiians themselves.

Oli is the singing while dancing of the story song itself, called mele.

Therefore, it happens that such a rhythmic dance accompanied by singing is called “Mele Hula”, which means “song-dance”, or “Kahiko”, but correct name- "Hula Kahiko".

Tools and clothing for hula kahiko

Each Kahiko hula dance was dedicated to one of the ancient gods, praising them and their deeds. It was usually accompanied by the ancient song mele and performed only with these ancient Hawaiian instruments:

At that time, the clothing for male dancers was loincloths, and for women - short skirts(another reason for the ban on dance with the arrival of Christians). Modern mid-calf pau skirts, like grass skirts, did not exist until the end of the 19th century.

But all the elements of decoration, incl. There were traditional flower garlands - leis, as well as bracelets and necklaces. After the dance, the lei was presented to the altar of the goddess Laka, the patroness of hula, as a gift.

Hula Kahiko today

It is said that this change happened several centuries ago, when with the arrival of Paao the islands entered a protracted period of wars for power, and the men were at war. However, traditional hula movements are still strong. The mood may be softer, but still remains very serious in tribute to tradition.

Find Cultural Center and ask around where Hula Kahiko is performed. Let the rhythm of mele permeate your being, and let hula enliven your soul.

Do not consider such a search too difficult - on the contrary, by showing a gesture of respect for someone else's culture, you will open the hearts of the keepers of Hawaiian wisdom towards you - after all, who would not want to make friends with people who show interest in your culture?

Hula kahiko [ | ]

Hula kahiko.

Kahiko, which generally refers to varieties of hula dance that appeared before 1893 and do not use modern musical instruments, includes a wide variety of styles and forms of performance, from the solemn variety to the rather frivolous. Much of the khula of that period was invented to praise traditional leaders, so they were performed either in their honor or for their entertainment. Among the varieties of kahiko there are alaapapa (Gav. ʻālaʻapapa), haa (Gav. haʻa), olapa (Gav. ʻolapa) and others.

Part of the hula was performed at various religious holidays and ceremonies that took place on the territory of Hawaiian temples. Moreover, any mistake by the performer during the dance was considered bad sign. Therefore, all Hawaiians who learned hula were isolated from the world and placed under the protection of the goddess Laka. The dance school was called halau (Gav. hālau), and the teachers were called kumu (Gav. kumu; kumu is translated as "source of knowledge").

When performing the dance, the dancers were divided into two groups. The first group, or olapa (Gav. olapa), united dancers who performed active movements (sometimes accompanied by music); the second group, or hoopaa (Gav. hoopaʻa), consisted of performers who sat on the ground or knees, played musical instruments and accepted Active participation in singing. At a signal from the kumu, who was sitting in the hoopaa group, poo-puaa (Gav. poo-puaʻa), the leader of the olapa group, began singing a mele song, which resembled a monotonous reading. Subsequently, the kumu himself joined in, as did all the dancers. The main motive for the songs were various love stories, as well as appeals to natural forces and nature in general.

The dance was accompanied by playing traditional Hawaiian instruments:

When performing the dance, the dancers wore special clothes. Women wore a pau skirt (Gav. pāʻū), leaving their breasts bare. The performers also decorated themselves with numerous bracelets (including anklets), necklaces, and Hawaiian decoration lei. Men wore loincloths, or little (

And outside the homeland, the dance can be seen quite often. Even the conservative Japanese liked the peculiar spiritual practice of the Polynesians: in some dance schools Up to 5,000 students study hula in the Land of the Rising Sun.

The formation of the dance took place over several centuries, and today there are several versions of it: the Polynesian hula kahiko itself and the modern hula auan, which developed under the influence of Europeans, and it is the second version that is popular. As for kahiko, this dance since ancient times was more solemn than entertaining. It was dedicated to the goddess Laka, and was also performed at ceremonies honoring leaders. They treated it with full responsibility: the slightest mistake during the dance was interpreted as a bad sign.

Hula is associated with ancient legends about local gods and heroes: according to one of them, the author of the dance was the aforementioned Laka, while the other talks about the mighty hero Hiiaka, who, with the help of this dance, tried to calm his angry sister Pele, the patroness of volcanoes. According to another version, the creator of the hula was Pele herself, who first performed it on the top of the crater.

People, for a long time who did not have writing, created his chronicle through movements, and hula dance is a narrative in which every gesture has meaning. Connected with nature and dependent on its whims, Hawaiians from ancient times sought to appease their gods by glorifying the spirits who patronize the mountains, ocean, and earth.

To Europeans who arrived in Polynesia at the end of the 19th century, hula seemed to be an overly frank pagan dance, and therefore was banned. The Christian missionaries must have been shocked to see almost naked dancers wearing only grass skirts. However, having been censored, the dance did not disappear without a trace - it simply entered a new phase of development. This is how ahuana arose, a version of hula, which today is considered almost a local landmark and attracts tourists from all over the world. And girls, decorated with flowers and making leisurely wave-like movements with their arms and hips, can be seen in every creation of the Hollywood Dream Factory, if we are talking about Hawaii.

But the essence of the dance has not changed, and it is still based on the idea of ​​unity with nature, despite the fact that even the musical instruments that accompany it are of Western origin: electric guitar, bass guitar, ukulele (Hawaiian variety of guitar) . Initially, kahiko hula instruments were bamboo sticks, volcanic stones, drums made of pumpkin, coconuts and fish skin. Traditionally, hula is performed accompanied by singing, but the text of the song can change, and it can tell both about events of ancient times and about incidents of our time.

In the West, hula is considered a dance of women, but it has long been performed by men, whose traditional attire was loincloths, complemented by bracelets and necklaces. Distinctive feature male version were more sudden movements, demonstrating the strength and courage of the dancer. It is interesting that dance teachers are still men.

There is no consensus on how to dance the hula: there are a number of movements that can be performed in any combination, depending on what the song is about. Knowing the meaning of the text, the dancer creates an image, choosing the necessary “building materials” from movements and gestures.

In addition to the fact that hula is beautiful, graceful and exotic, it also has a beneficial effect on the body, as it promotes relaxation and helps to gain spiritual harmony, restores balance and simply allows you to enjoy life at any age - and, by the way, the Hawaiians themselves most revere older dancers who have managed to preserve a young heart.

Every Woman's Dance is Special , some of us don’t know how to dance at all, many don’t feel their whole body. But with the help of dance it is easiest to reveal your individuality and sexuality!

What kind of wonderful dance is this that gives such results?

IN Hawaiian dance Hula aspects are revealed inner strength, energy and health on all levels - physical, emotional, mental, spiritual. Few modern practices, and especially dancing, have such a unique, powerful combination. Hula is one of three such practices.

What happens to the body and in the body?

The main element of the dance is smooth movements hips But not at all like in oriental dances. Here, powerful work is done to strengthen muscles that are rarely used in dancing - the lateral muscles of the body. After a few months, the waist becomes noticeably stronger and slimmer, not due to twisting, which is not there, but due to movements of the hips in a different plane and breathing. The hips symbolically and physically connect the upper and lower parts of the body - the torso and legs.

1. Health, youth, connection!

Dance gives us the opportunity to use our own inner gifts, awaken youth, health, strength, femininity, beauty, awareness and attention.

It restores energy balance, improves coordination of movements, improves the condition of joints, awakens and harmonizes sexual energy, builds posture, harmonizes emotional condition. Its implementation leads to the restoration of interaction between the upper and lower, as well as the right and left parts of the body. All these parts become connected, movements are coordinated and the body becomes more flexible and harmonious. Contact with the body is restored, which is very difficult and takes a long time to achieve in other ways.

2. And the emotions!!! And the balance!!!

There you are awakening and healing of the Inner child.

Where did you see the girl in beautiful dress twirling in dance and in tears? If her shoes don’t squeeze her, then nowhere!! Serious - yes, sad - never) It is impossible to be “busy” or unhappy, to think and be sad when you are doing something that is interesting and enjoyable.

This dance has not only the benefits of strengthening the body, but also special wisdom. Previously, there was no written language in Hawaii and people passed on knowledge through dance and legends. Of course, our inner child (Unihipili) feels it, children like fairy tales)))

It has no religion, age, gender or nationality. What is the nationality of health and wisdom? What color are Joy's eyes? What language does your Truth speak?

3. Be in the moment here and now. In a dance, the legs dance alone, the hands tell the story the most beautiful story, listen to the words and rhythm of the music, remember, sing along and my head combines it all!!! All your attention is only in the moment now, not in the past and not in dreams, but definitely here, in the dance. One of the Hawaiian principles, KALA, tells us that energy follows attention. Where your attention is, there you are. If these are dreams or memories, then you are not in the present, but everything is created in the moment now! Dance helps train our ability to be present!

4. ... And not a single extraneous thought in my head. Complete silence. Only movements and rhythm... Anti-stress therapy, the most natural!!!

5. Controlling your own Breathing.

What could be more important than liberating, relaxing Breathing - something that is available at any moment to help yourself? This is one of the two most important rhythms of Life.

6. I'm happy with myself! I accept myself! I like myself! This is what every woman simply must tell herself every morning and, in general, every free minute! We have so many claims to ourselves and so little praise and approval... When the dance begins to work out, the joy from the coherence and connection of our own body simply overflows! Beginning to dissolve overweight, increases confidence, sexuality, enchanting beauty and, of course, Aloha!

Who could be more beautiful than a radiant, joyful, self-satisfied, loving Woman?

7. Be yourself and show it!

It’s so easy to express yourself in movement and joy, enjoy! Do what you like! If we are happy, then everyone around us blossoms!

Hula - part of the culture and traditions of Hawaii. There are several versions of the birth of this dance. Believed to be the goddess of dance Hula is Laka, goddess of the forest. And the first dancers were, of course, gods and goddesses, for whom dance Hula was a sacred ritual.

According to another version Hula invented specifically for pregnant women. Dance helps to normalize all female processes, prepare the body for childbirth and almost relieve pain. If we take a physical effect, then Hula movements improve blood circulation in the pelvic area. And the dancers begin to blossom, their skin color changes, even their lips become fuller, and men follow such Women with their gaze. The body becomes very beautiful and flexible.

Hula – a dance of connecting and awakening the body, a dance of beauty and energy! Samoslovo Hula translates as “kindling the sacred inner fire.” Imagine, the Sacred!!! And in modern life It is customary to suppress precisely this sacred fire and the manifestations of one’s feelings and desires. It is interesting that Hawaiians are very beautiful, flexible, graceful, although sometimes plump. Women do not suffer from osteoparosis, they do not have menopause and female diseases. They can give birth to children at any age. Fantastic? No, reality!!!

Men dance too Hula , this is a beautiful, powerful dance of power!

Another translation is possible: Hula - “not taking an unnecessary path”, due to the fact that the special, strong rhythm of the music keeps you in a state of strength and concentration in the present moment. It is impossible to think about anything else other than dancing at this moment. And it is in this dance that through your own body you learn to intentionally change, switch rhythms - tension and relaxation.
