Marie, the owner, and her haumana focus strictly on education and execution of Hawaiian hula and ori Tahiti. The instructor continuously learns about the Hawaiian culture and hula in person from well known, highly respected kumu hula (teachers of Hawaiian arts and culture). Utmost respect is held for the traditions and spirit of Polynesia as she and her students perpetuate culture through education, classes, and performance in the Louisville, KY area. Importance of the Hula Kahiko is emphasized, as it is a strong part of the heritage. Many chants reveal origins, values, events, and legends regarding influential figures and leaders throughout Hawai'i's history. Unprecedented dedication in the Louisville area is evident through instructor and student research, training, and practice to ensure proper execution. We welcome women of all ages and experience levels to become a part of our ohana. Marie and her students are always excited to welcome and embrace our new members as we celebrate a shared love of culture, dance, and self-improvement! For the Hawaiian hula and Tahitian 'aparima, the hands tell the stories portrayed in the music. Explanations are provided during a show as to the meanings of each dance. The Tahitian O'tea may also be requested, which includes challenging, fast hip motions to drum beats. The purpose of performing is to share, educate, and bring joy to others. Marie adheres to the authentic attire and music and always strives to properly represent to the best of her ability as she has been taught. If you are interested in fun island entertainment as well as the authenticity of the services, then Marie's services are likely a fit for your event.
