Winter Learning Journey 2025 Activity 16 Kiribati Dancing

Today I did activity 16 of the Winter Learning Journey which is Kiribati dancing. This week is Kiribati Language week, Wikin te Taetae ni Kiribati, and so one way to celebrate the Kiribati culture is by learning their dance. This task wanted me to watch the video provided of some people dancing Kiribati culture and try to join in with the dancing. My dad helped me find some clothing to make me look like what they wear in the video which I think is in Kiribati. I danced as a male dancer, joining in near the end. This is me dancing and the original video provided. I tried to say Tia bo (saa-bo) at the end meaning goodbye in Kiribati like the video.

What cultural dance you would enjoy watching or dancing yourself?
