Dancing songs are the most common type of traditional Tuvaluan songs. Older style dancing songs were known to be performed while sitting, kneeling or standing. The two primary traditional dances of Tuvalu are the ''[[fakanau]]'' (for men) and ''oga'' (for women) and the ''fakaseasea''.
The modern ''[[fatele]]'' involves the women on their feet, dancing in lines; with the men facing the dancers, sitting on the floor beating the time with their hands on the mats or on wooden boxes
