15.01.2022 *Language Warning* Play without volume if it offends you Today we are focusing on sharing our stories, by our people. You are not alone!... Read a story by @olealwaysdancing_ and growing up Samoan overseas. #GrowingUpSamoan I wasn't raised up in the Smoan culture. I didn't always know how to speak or understand the language. I didn't always feel comfortable in my skin. Being the Black face amongst a bunch of Brown. The struggle to obtain a sense of my own Samoan identity as well as trying to remain Me through it all. I didn't feel like there was a place for Samoans like me. Like I was too old to try and learn the culture. I've always been a Dancer and as with many other hardships in my life, I used dance as a va'a (canoe) to navigate and learn more of my culture. I'm not the best. What you see in this video isn't planned or choreographed. Anykine actions and my lil twisteez sticking out from playing with my Napps I was helping a good friend practice some Siva Samoa basics for her wedding. My attempt to explain Musicality, Timing, Rhythm, Grace, and Appeal from a Samoan lens. Now, I'm no professional or expert on the Siva Samoa. I've just had practice. Lots of practice (and beatings and okes) My favorite way of showing my Love and Respect for my Samoan culture is through my service; is by giving back. No fame. No fortune. Always have fun.

14.01.2022 This week we celebrate NAIDOC WEEK here in Australia. Measina acknowledges that we are working and filming on indigenous lands and include this acknowledgement in each episode of our Tamaiti program. We do this so that we can show our respect and gratitude for allowing us to use this land.... It is also to teach our tamaiti, children, the importance of respecting the indigenous peoples and the lands on which they may live. #alwayswasalwayswillbe #alwayswasalwayswillbeaboriginalland #naidocweek #naidoc2020 #measinasamoa #tamaitiprogram
10.01.2022 "The nifo'oti was a wooden club characterised by long teeth along one side and a single curved hook projecting at the end of the other." (Sean Mallon) Today we see the nifo'oti made with a metal hook and no teeth on the side. #measinasamoa #samoan #samoancarving #samoanclubs #nifooti

04.01.2022 What is the difference between Siva Afi and Ailao? Fire Ailao is the ancient Samoan tradition where warriors returned and told their war stories by throwing and catching their war clubs in an entertaining manner. These movements are now used in Siva Afi with the addition of fire.... We are currently holding an ailao competition so that our beginners can feel confident in themselves, their moves and grow stronger as warriors. We have three amazing judges who we will announce next week. Click the link in our bio to see competition details. #sivaafi #fireknifedance #ailao #ailaoafi #sivaafisamoa #sivaafiaustralia #sivaafiperformer

01.01.2022 We developed Tamaiti Season 1 as an online, on demand resource for parents and early childhood educators to teach Samoan culture to our children and the wider community. It has direct links to the Early Childhood Framework in Australia and has been developed with the assistance of an Early Childhood Education advisor and native speaking Samoans. The University of Nebraska states:... Research suggests adults who engage children in culturally responsive educational experiences help to: Build young children's self-confidence and skills Increase children's awareness, appreciation, and inclusion of diverse beliefs and cultures Maximize children's academic achievement and educational success If you would like to see Tamaiti in your childcare centre (worldwide) DM us your name and their email address and we will send them a free trial. #earlychildhoodeducation #earlychildhoodeducator #teachmesamoan #samoanforkids #tamaitiseason1 #earlylearning #preschool #kindergarten #preschoolaustralia #daycareaustralia #childcareaustralia #childcarecentreaustralia #daycarelife #daycare #childcarecentre #samoanculture #culturediversity #inclusion #inclusionmatters #culturaldiversity #antibiaseducation #antibiascurriculum #antibiaseducationinearlychildhood
