Siva Afi Holiday Program

Measina Treasures of Samoa - connecting you to Samoa

A two hour workshop showing you the basic moves of Siva Afi (fire knife dance) with Logan Tapuala.

Has the warrior in you been suppressed by lack of connection to your ancestors? Then this workshop is for you. Connect to tradition and connect to power!This two hour workshop will teach you the ancient ways of Samoan warriors. When Samoan warriors returned from war they told of their battles through ailao, the spinning and entertaining throwing and catching of Samoan war clubs. This art form has evolved over time to Fire Knife Dance, Siva Afi. We continue to see the ailao performed by Taupou and Manaia before they do their taualuga.The workshop will use only practice sticks. BONUS if you are one of the first 12 from the Melbourne Western Suburbs to register then you get a FREE PRACTICE STICK.The workshop is open to all genders and ethnicity aged between 12 and 25. It is also open worldwide (but only those in Western Melbourne are eligible for the FREE PRACTICE STICK).Logan Tapuala is a Siva Afi Performer who has taught students in Melbourne, Sydney, New Zealand and Hawaii and performed in front of thousands. Check his moves out in the video below.
