Siva Samoa is the Samoan term for a Samoan dance.
Traditional Samoan dancing is one area of the culture that has been the least affected by western civilisation. It requires the dancer to retain grace; movement of the arms and hands are done so in a subtle but delicate manner.In earlier times, high chiefs or matais performed this special dance but modern day it is performed by a taupou. A version of Siva Samoa, called Mak Sa'moa, is a popular traditional dance style in Western Samoa.
Other forms of traditional Samoan dancing include the taualuga, siva afi, and sasa.
