Faleulu Ane, is the Director of Oriana Siva Academy in Melbourne, Australia. Raised in West Auckland NZ by her beloved late parents Taituave and Toreka, Faleulu’s love for pese and siva Samoa began at Ponsonby Metotisi through her involvement in Sunday School, Aufaipese, Tupulaga and Autalavou. A renowned student and teacher of the prestigious Avondale College in Auckland New Zealand. Faleulū has claimed victory for more than 9 times at the largest Pacific festival stage- the ASB Polyfest, stretching over 3 decades as a student and teacher. Fast track to today Faleulū, her HARDWORKING MAN Luamanuvae Mose Tauiliili and three amazing children Justine, Richmond and MJ now reside in Melbourne. However, her family experienced a tragic loss in 2016 when her daughter Oriana-Lisa Ane-Tauiliili was called into the arms of our Heavenly Father. Keeping Oriana close to her heart, she established Oriana Siva Academy (OSA) in 2020 to honour her daughter's short lived life and create her legacy.

Tulasunu'i Fa'amausili

aka "STU" Male Tutor

Malie & Vailoa Palauli

My passion and love for Siva samoa started at a young age.
Growing up in a Samoan Methodist church and being a part of Sunday school and Autalavou (Youth), you are introduced to Siva and Pese Samoa at a young age.
As I got older I became a part of and danced for The Sons Of Samoa that would go on to perform interstate and all around Melbourne.
It was here that my passion grew and deepened in the Siva Samoa.
Being a part of the Oriana Siva Academy has given me the opportunity and platform to not only teach Siva samoa but also give back to the community and help our younger community find their identity through music and dance.
