Sunset Hula

I finally finished the choreography for the performance at Dance for the Memories June 27!

3 Speeds of dance - fast, faster, and sensible - and three styles of Polynesian dance: Tahitian, Hawaiian, and Samoan. I was inspired and challenged by a TikTok viral dance popular in the Pacific Islands.
Hope you will attend to see all the dance groups and raise awareness for Alzheimer's.

I hope to offer a six-week session to learn this dance after the Dance for the Memories event on June 27th. Location and time TBD

What I am working on! Love these viral videos and dance trends! BUT- but sure you know the culture and what you are dancing about before performing.

BUT- If dancing for yourself or the joy of it… GO FOR IT, no matter your age or body.

“Henua of Strings” #cookislands#hawaii#polynesia#polynesian Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Sometimes I think we select our study of dance for the costumes, LOL! Just be true to the culture, study more than the moves, be respectful, authentic and learn the crafts of the culture to make it yourself!

This is sooooo true!

There’s something magical that happens when you go from dancing alone to dancing together.
In a troupe, you’re not just expressing yourself, you’re weaving your energy into something bigger. You learn to trust, to blend, to move as one.
Different bodies, different souls, all coming together to tell one shared story through dance.
There’s nothing like stepping onto the floor knowing you’re part of something greater than yourself.

Hula and Tahitian Tuesdays - More planning tonight than dance, but liquid refreshment is half the fun!!!

I’d like to introduce you to some premier Polynesian dancers in our area! Its fun to be a student and reclaim my rusty Tahitian skills! - maybe not the Duck walk, lol. It’s a heart pounding workout!

Amazing jobs ladies!! See you all next class! 🙂‍↕️🫶

I was hoping to send my troupe a cute Happy Thanksgiving meme.... and think I need to do more training of ChatGPT. Grokʻs... I will not even post, it was a compete fail. Anyway...Ummm, Thatʻs not a Tahitian costume, LOL.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all! Post Thanksgiving Tahitian training starting with us soon, canʻt hurt with that extra 5 we often pick up around this time of year.
