Te Hiva Nui at the Billingham Festival
Rarotonga dance group Te Hiva Nui has been performing at the Billingham Folk Festival in England and this video was posted on YouTube by Emmerrr who says they were excellent.
And a story appeared in a local newspaper the Evening Gazette, about their visit to the home of James Cook after whom our country was named. Check it out here:http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/2009/08/05/homage-paid-to-james-cook-at-billingham-festival-84229-24322430/

awe, that is too bad they were unable to bring their traditional cocomut bras in for this competition. saddened me to read that.
the performance was spectacular though! so colorful and orgnaized movements~ i love near the end when the women dancers have what's comparable to an "exit drill" to exit the stage while the men continued and really cranked it up! thanks penelope!
