VARIATIONS
There are a big variety of variations that can be added to Kawliga. The following are just a few of the more common ones.
1) Additional turns may be added to the vine steps.
2) At the end of beginning or advanced steps 2 and 4 instead of bringing your free foot next to your weight bearing foot, put weight on both feet and "slam" your feet together and clap your hands. Perform the "slam" with feeling!!
3) When performing Advanced Level step 3-guys can grab the front brim of their hats and bend over forward slightly.
4) When performing Advanced step 4-dancers could lean back, cross their arms and perform Russian kicks forward while they move backwards.
5) Arm movements that accent the dance are always welcome.
6) And yes-vocals-there are a variety of "Indian" yells and calls that can be performed during the dance. See Comments.
Suggested Dance Style: No matter if Kawliga is performed at the beginning or advanced level, it should always be performed with the feeling and style of the Music (an "Indian" flavor).
Comments: There are some unique vocals that are highly suggested when performing Kawliga. They include for:
Step 1: "hun-ga-chow-wa", "hun-ga-chow-wa"
Step 2: "hunga-hunga-hunga-hey"
Step 3: "hine-ya, hine-ya, hine-ya, ho"
Step 4: Any made up gibberish variations from the first three steps
